25l for a school bag?! I would be very careful with a bag of such size, your daughter is liable to end up with back problems.

Could you not encourage her to carry only what she needs on the relevant days? I remember when I was at school and we actually had a lesson on this, as we were all carrying everything but the kitchen sink!

However, if she really wants one, there is something like this:

Edit: Sorry, didn't think - is she boarding or is it for trips? I take a 25l bag for my hols?! x

although i'm not a fan of school pigeon holing, i'm sorry to say that my dd is starting high school and it was made very clear to me by my older children that you do not get a bag big enough for your child to get in unless you want them to be called geek for 5 yrs. I plumped for a spongebob shopper from new look, £5 and apparently cool because it is a shopper but extra cool cos its spongebob! I hate peer pressure but sometimes you have gotta give em a fair chance.
