It’s that time of the year again! As the new school year approaches, parents across the Philippines are doing their budgets and gearing up for the annual back-to-school shopping marathon. Between finding the prescribed uniforms, picking out quality school supplies, and ensuring kids have everything they need for the school year ahead, it can get overwhelming.
This year, Robinsons Department Store (RDS) is making it easier for parents and kids to check everything off their back-to-school lists without breaking the bank with its Back to School Sale from May 16 to July 15, 2025. From crisp new uniforms and comfortable school shoes to colorful notebooks, stylish bags and sturdy backpacks, and skincare products to protect them from the sun’s UV rays, busy families can accomplish their entire shopping lists in a single trip — and save money too.
Unbeatable deals

Curated school collections
RDS understands how hectic back-to-school season can be for families, which is why they’ve curated a complete selection that covers every grade level and every budget, making it simple for parents to find quality items that kids will actually use and love.
From very young kids picking out their first school bag to college students looking for professional attire for internships and presentations, Robinsons has everything for smart shoppers.
The curated back-to-school selection includes trusted brands parents love alongside affordable options that don’t sacrifice durability. School uniforms from Guitar and Grizzly feature comfortable fabrics that hold up to daily wear and frequent washing, while the shoe selection from brands like Gibi and Rusty Lopez prioritizes both style and support for growing feet. The school supplies section stocks everything from basic pencils and notebooks to specialized items to ensure that students have the right tools for academic success.
Backpacks and lunch boxes come in designs that appeal to different age groups, from fun cartoon characters for younger students to stylish bags for high school and university students. The variety ensures everyone can find items that reflect their personality.
For a stylish school year ahead, teens have the RDS Lookbook for inspiration. Parents can browse the collections to help their young kids decide what they want. Browse online to create a wishlist, then visit your nearest Robinsons Department Store to try on uniforms, test backpack comfort, and make final decisions with your children’s input.
