We understand the financial pressures that many parents are under, so we are pleased to offer our customers a primary school uniform for just€5. No compromise has been made on quality.”
A pair of trousers or a pleaded skirt will set you back €2 and white polo shirts are two for €1.25.
A school jumper costs €1.75.
The range comes in grey, black, navy, white and blue and will accommodate for children between four and eleven.

In addition to the uniforms, Aldi launched an extensive back to school range including scuff resistant school shoes, padded jackets, knitted V-neck jumpers, short sleeve shirts, sports trainers, boys’ / girls’ PE shorts, backpacks, pencil cases, pencils, highlighters and ballpoint pens.
A survey conducted in The Irish Examiner in 2011 concluded that Irish parents spend an average €400 per child before the new school year in September.
