The same FORM058-compliant contents as the NSW Department of Education First Aid Box — in a hi-vis red backpack that anyone can locate from across a playground, sports field, or excursion site without asking. The reflective stripe and green first aid cross mean it is visible and identifiable in any environment where students are supervised away from the main building.

For fixed classroom and office locations, the tackle box version works well. For sports days, camps, excursions, and outdoor classrooms, the bag format is the right call — it moves with the supervising teacher, it is visible under pressure, and it carries everything needed to respond properly until professional help arrives. Read our guide on what needs to be in an Australian school first aid kit to understand exactly what the FORM058 requirements cover.

• Built to NSW DoE FORM058 specifications — identical contents to the tackle box version Compliant out of the box for NSW Department of Education requirements. FORM058 specifies at least one kit per school building, no further than 100 metres from each classroom — the backpack format makes it practical to meet that requirement in outdoor and mobile settings. Three content lists are included so each kit location has its own maintenance record.
• Two asthma spacers, asthma first aid instructions, TICKTOX tick spray, snake bite bandage with tension indicator, and needle disposal unit These are the items that matter most when students are away from the main building. Asthma episodes happen on sports fields. Ticks are a genuine hazard across NSW school grounds and bush settings. Snake bite response is relevant on any excursion into regional or semi-rural areas. A needle disposal unit is included because it gets used.
• Hospital-grade wound care, burn gel sachets, sodium chloride eyewash ampoules, multiple dressing sizes, nitrile gloves, and disposable face shield Everything a supervising teacher needs to respond to playground falls, burns, eye contamination, and soft tissue injuries properly — before professional help arrives. Nothing selected for price. Everything selected for what actually happens when children are in your care away from the school building.
