You can purchase general stationery through Office Max or any stationery shop. Click on the link below to order online at Office Max, which has the 2026 Glendowie College stationery lists programmed into their system.

Note ... if a WINZ quote is required, you may obtain the quote through the Glendowie OfficeMax MySchool Website by going through the process of placing an order. Before you go to confirm the order, you can print a copy.  Another option is to go into the OfficeMax Mt Eden retail store and the staff will be able to help you with the quote for WINZ.
