Fridge magnets for schools, clubs and community groups

The family fridge is the real noticeboard

School newsletters arrive by email, club updates come through an app and church notices are read out on Sunday, but the dates that matter to a busy family usually end up on the fridge. A printed magnet gets your information there directly.

For schools, clubs and community groups, that means fewer "I didn't know it was on" moments. Parents can check the date of the swimming carnival, the next away game or the working bee without opening a single message.

Term dates and school calendars

A term dates magnet is a simple way to start the year. Our calendar magnets in A5 (210 x 148 mm) or DL (210 x 97 mm) have room for the four terms of 2027, pupil-free days, public holidays and big events such as carnivals, concerts and parent-teacher interviews.

Add the school logo, the office phone number, the absence line and the uniform shop hours, and you've covered most of the questions the front office answers every week. Kindergartens and early learning centres often use an A6 magnet for session times and the centre's contact details.

Fixtures and draws for sports clubs

Sports clubs live by the draw. A magnet with the season fixture, home and away games and training nights keeps players and parents organised from round one to the finals.

A5 gives plenty of space for a full season, while DL suits a shorter competition or a single team. Many clubs add sponsor logos along the bottom, which gives local businesses a season of visibility on every member's fridge and can help cover the cost of the print run. Our designers can fit several sponsors in without losing the readability of the draw.

Photo frame magnets for teams and classes

Photo frame magnets are a favourite keepsake for families. The frame is printed with your school or club branding, and the photo slips in so the team or class shot sits proudly on the fridge.

We make them at 135 x 185 mm and in A5 at 210 x 148.5 mm. They suit end-of-season presentations, class photos, kindy graduation and confirmation or christening keepsakes, and they keep your name in the home long after the event.

Kindergartens, churches and community groups

Smaller organisations get plenty of value from a simple magnet. A church might print service times, the parish office number and key dates in the year. A playgroup or kindy can share session times and the centre's phone number. A scout group or community choir can list meeting nights and the contact for new members.

Shaped magnets add a little personality. The apple magnet (56 x 60 mm) is a natural fit for schools and teachers, and circle magnets from 50 mm to 90 mm make a tidy badge for a club crest.

Fundraising and sponsorship ideas

Magnets can play a part in fundraising too. Some ideas groups use:

• sell sponsor space on a season draw or term calendar magnet;
• include a branded photo frame magnet with team photo packages;
• hand out a fete or fundraiser reminder magnet a few weeks before the day;
• use a notepad holder magnet with the canteen or uniform shop details as a useful giveaway at orientation.

Because you don't pay until the design is approved and there are no cancellation fees, there's room to confirm sponsors before you commit.

A small lesson in sustainability

Schools and clubs are often the places where kids first learn about recycling and waste. Green Magnets let you practise what you teach: they're printed on 100% recycled paper, sealed with a plastic-free biodegradable laminate, made with a magnet containing at least 30% recycled material, and shipped in recyclable packaging with no plastic. Our factory runs on 90% renewable energy from solar.
