How we help schools stay ahead of the curve.

Booklists

We’ve worked with our customers to build an exceptional experience from the ground up, reducing the time and administration associated with schools creating and managing their booklists.

Parent Order Website

Our new OfficeMax Schools website has been designed by schools and parents, for schools and parents. It’s optimised for mobile, tablets or computers, so parents can find, order, pay and manage their school needs, wherever, whenever.

With OfficeMax Schools, parents can shop textbooks, eBooks, stationery and technology, all in the one place. With a hassle-free check out process that includes popular payment options like PayPal, getting ready for school couldn’t be simpler.

Booklist Creation

Our list builder is incredibly easy to use, even showing the price of your booklist as you build it. You can save your list while you’re working on it, returning whenever you’re ready to build up the next part.

There are in-built approval options and you can even report on the progress of your students and parents, as they place their orders against your lists.

Exceptional teachers do more than just teach

With over 40 years’ experience in schools, we’ve learnt that an exceptional teacher is the foundation of a strong and happy school community.

That’s why we created A Day Made Better, to reward and recognise Australia’s most inspiring primary and secondary teachers. From humble beginnings in 2011 with 100 teachers recognised, to 8,500 teachers nominated in 2015, the sky is the limit, and we’ll keep sharing the stories of these beloved teachers who work so hard to better their students’ lives every day.

Furniture

With dedicated furniture specialists, we can provide furniture solutions that make sense. From a classroom to staffroom, our huge range of furniture will keep you working in comfort and style. 

If you only need a few chairs for wear and tear replacements, or a total fit-out, no order is too small or too large. Plus, our team of experts will take into consideration the ergonomic, environmental and functional needs of your school. They’ll even arrange delivery to your school and installation, so you can take a seat while we take care of the rest. 

TJINDGARMI products are developed in collaboration with JHerro Pty Ltd a 100% certified Indigenous business.

We’ve learnt the importance of preserving Australian Indigenous culture.

The Teter Mek Foundation is focused on creating school programmes designed to develop a sense of pride and awareness of Indigenous culture amongst all Australians. And we’re committed to their cause too, which is why a portion of the profit of every purchase from the Tjindgarmi range goes to the Teter Mek Foundation. For OfficeMax, we love that we’re bringing to life the rich culture of Australia’s past through Tjindgarmi.

Bulk Buy & BYOD

The decision on whether to supply technology products for your students, or for parents, is a tough one, but we can actually do both! The challenge with new technology is just as much around being able to afford these devices as it is getting the right device. Our extensive partner network ensures we’re able to supply you with competitive bulk purchase options, or allow parents to source their device as part of our ‘Bring Your Own Device’ program on OfficeMax Schools.

We’ll happily visit you to demonstrate and we can even set you up with a free trial!
