As the 2026 school year begins, parents across Sri Lanka are scrambling to find high-quality stationery at the best prices. Whether your child is starting Grade 1 or preparing for their O/Ls, having the right tools is the first step to success. At Weondy.lk, we have curated the ultimate checklist of school essentials, featuring trusted brands like Atlas, Innovate, and Nalaka.
Here is your complete guide to the must-have school supplies for 2026.
1. The Right Exercise Books for Every Grade
Choosing the right book is confusing. Here is a quick breakdown to help you buy the correct ones:
-
For Primary (Grade 1-5):
-
Double Rule (80pg/120pg): Essential for handwriting practice. Look for Nalaka or Atlas books with 1/2″ spacing.
-
Square Rule (80pg): A must-have for early mathematics.
-
Blank/Drawing Books: Don’t forget an Atlas A4 Drawing Book for art class!
-
-
For Secondary (Grade 6-11):
-
Single Rule (80pg – 200pg): The standard book for almost every subject.
-
CR Books (160pg – 400pg): These hardcover books are vital for Science, Maths, and Commerce subjects where notes are heavy. Atlas CR Books (60gsm) and Innovate CR Books (70gsm) are the top choices for durability.

2. Pens & Writing Instruments
A smooth pen makes a huge difference in handwriting speed, especially during exams.
-
Ballpoint Pens: The Atlas Chooty and Innovate Akuru are Sri Lanka’s favorites for a reason—they don’t smudge and last long.
-
Gel Pens: Great for highlighting headers and making notes stand out.
-
Pencils: For younger kids, Atlas HB Pencils are break-resistant and easy to sharpen.
3. Mathematical & Science Tools
Don’t wait until the last minute to buy these technical tools:
-
Geometry Boxes: A sturdy Atlas Maths Box is required from Grade 6 onwards.
-
Scientific Calculators: Essential for A/L students in the Maths/Science stream.
-
Graph Books: Ensure you have a 40-page Atlas Graph Book for mathematics lessons.
4. Lunch Boxes & Water Bottles
Health is just as important as studying. Ensure your child stays hydrated and energized with safe, durable gear.
-
BPA-Free Bottles: Look for Atlas Superfit bottles (1L or 750ml). They are leak-proof and safe for daily use.
-
Airtight Lunch Boxes: The Atlas TummyFit series keeps rice and curry fresh without leaking into school bags.
