Parents can choose from including a pair of trousers, shorts or a skirt in the bundle.
Singular items can also be bought for cheap, with a sweatshirt going for just £1.50, and trousers, shirts, skirts or shorts for £1.75 during the sale.
These prices offered by little undercut many other high street competitors, and will likely ease the burden of having to update the school uniform again.
The discount retailer, priding itself on these unbeatable prices, adds: "If you see a cheaper deal elsewhere, we'll match it."
Parents should then head to the Lidl middle aisle quick before the back to school rush, as stock is likely to last only for a short time.
The sale also come with a 12-month satisfaction guarantee.
A 20 per cent discount on a stationery item can also be claimed when any school uniform piece is bought with the Lidl Plus app before next Wednesday, July 9.
Other items in the sale include trainers for £6.99, which come in a range of colours, as well as socks starting at £2.49, and zip-up hoodies for £3.99.
The uniform bundle comes with a range of different middle aisle deals that Lidl is putting on offer from today.

Which? reveals best supermarket Magnum ice cream dupes
Stocking up the freezer with ice cream is an absolute must to get us through the scorching summer days, and who can say no to the satisfying crack of a chocolate-covered number? Of course, the top chocolate-covered ice cream brand in the UK is Magnum. However, you could make some savings by buying supermarket own-label ice creams instead - but how do they stack up against a Magnum Classic? Consumer champions Which? tested nine supermarket own-label ice creams in a blind-tasting that involved 60 people, and found that while none of them trumped a classic Magnum, one supermarket did hold a candle to it. A close runner-up came from a budget supermarket, giving ice cream fans more bang for their buck. In fact, two budget supermarket ice creams got higher ratings for flavour and value compared to posh supermarkets like Waitrose. Jessica Carson, Which? Food and Health Editor, said: 'Cooling down with a delicious ice cream on a hot day is the stuff that summer holidays are made of, so having a box full in the freezer is bound to please - whether you are entertaining or if you've got kids. 'While the Classic Magnum wasn't beaten in our test, one supermarket brand matched it and a bargain alternative from Lidl wasn't far behind - and is less than half the price.' The supermarket own-brand ice cream that matched Magnum's rating was none other than the M&S Chocolate Sticks. Both ice creams were rated at 82% and tasters said they loved the balance of chocolate and vanilla flavours, as well as the creamy texture of the ice cream within its chocolate shells. Which? advised customers to look out for deals on the Classic Magnums, which cost £3.50 for a pack of three, making them the most expensive of the lot. However, they are frequently on some kind of deal, so it's best to keep an eye out for special offers to get the most value for money. Classic Magnums are currently £2.75 for three for loyalty card holders at Tesco and Sainsbury's, according to the consumer website. It can also be cheaper to buy Magnums in bigger multipacks of six, if you have the freezer space for them. Here's how Which? rated the nine supermarket Magnum dupes. M&S Chocolate Sticks £2.40 for three 110ml ice creams (80p per stick) These were the only supermarket own-brand ice creams that matched up to Magnums in the Which? taste test, with tasters loving the sweetness and strength of the chocolate flavour, as well as the vanilla flavour. They are the most expensive own-label ice cream tested, but are still over a pound cheaper than full-price Magnums. Lidl Gelatelli Classic Ice Cream Sticks Rated at 79% for great value, Lidl's ice creams are cheap and cheerful. Tasters said they had 'just the right sweetness, creaminess and vanilla flavour'. These ice creams are slightly bigger than Magnums (120ml vs 100ml) yet are less than half the price of Magnum Classics, so customers will be getting more bang for their buck. Aldi Gianni's Milk Chocolate Ice Creams £1.69 for four 100ml ice creams (42p per stick) German budget supermarket Aldi offers the cheapest ice cream tested by Which? and received a decently high rating for flavour. It came in at a 77% rating. While the flavour was good, tasters said they weren't creamy enough, but at just 42p per ice cream, they're a good budget-friendly alternative to Magnums. Iceland Belgian Milk Chocolate Majestics The frozen food specialists' ice cream treat rounds off the Which? top five list, scoring well at 77% for looking great and offering a satisfyingly creamy texture. However, nearly a third of tasters complained they were too sweet. £2.25 for three 100ml ice creams (75p per ice cream) Waitrose has a reputation for being posh and expensive, but their ice creams are 5p cheaper than M&S - however, nearly half of tasters thought the vanilla flavour was far too weak. Morrisons Classic Milk Chocolate Amour Sticks £2.25 for three 110ml ice creams (75p per ice cream) Half of the tasters thought Morrison's Magnum dupes 'weren't bad', but they also were not creamy enough. £2.10 for three 110ml ice creams (70p per ice cream) Asda scored decently for sweetness and strength of chocolate flavour, but the vanilla ice cream within let it down by not being creamy enough. Tesco Milk Chocolate Ice Creams £1.39 for three 110ml ice creams (46p per ice cream) Whilst this was among the cheapest ice creams that Which? tested, over half of the tasters thought the vanilla flavour was too weak. Despite being more expensive than three of the top five ice creams, Co-op's Magnum dupes ranked the lowest because the ice cream wasn't creamy enough and the chocolate wasn't chocolatey enough. 'A bit of a letdown, but not terrible,' Which? said.

Woman aged 101 shares secrets to long life and reveals one food she always eats
Woman aged 101 shares secrets to long life and reveals one food she always eats A British woman aged 101 has shared her secret to a long and healthy life - and it's all down to her diet. She looks incredibly young for her age too, as a video shared on TikTok shows A British centenarian has revealed her secret to a long and healthy life, attributing it to her diet. The 101-year-old shared details about her diet and lifestyle in a chat with her grandson James Marsh, who is a fitness coach. He captured the conversation in an uplifting video which he subsequently shared on his TikTok page. In discussing her dietary habits she places significant credit on a vegetable-laden diet, echoing her mother's staunch conviction in the power of vegetables for well-being. "I always ate plenty of vegetables. I was brought up by my mother and she was a great believer in vegetables so we always had them," she says. She elaborated on her love for vegetables and how they have been a staple from her wartime upbringing. "My father grew them, especially during the war of course, and I always ate them and I always loved them." For our free daily briefing on the biggest issues facing the nation, sign up to the Wales Matters newsletter here Born in 1924, she also mentioned her inclination towards fruit over anything "particularly sweet", the Mirror reports. And when questioned about alcohol intake, she clearly stated: "No, not at all – I never liked it. I'm sure that it's bad for you, I'm just sure." As for meat and fish, she noted: "We were rationed of course. Article continues below "So we never had that much when I was young. Today I like a bit of meat. I'm not keen on fish but I eat a bit of it." Concluding her discussion on eating habits, the 101-year old, who appears remarkably youthful for her years, said: "I'm very careful with what I eat. Not many sweet things – really just lots of veggies, lots of fruit, which I've always eaten." Content cannot be displayed without consent Amazed by her youthful appearance, a TikTok user voiced their appreciation and hope for her future: "101, incredible. Wish her many more years ahead of her." Other users shared their family longevity tips, with one commenting on TikTok: "My grandparents lived until 95 and 96 and they grew their own vegetables." Another individual elaborated: "In my opinion the perfect diet is just wholefoods, small amount of meat/fish fibre, fruit for sweetness, no smoking no alcohol. My mum is 84 my dad is 90 and both still going strong, and their exercise: walking and gardening." A different person reminisced warmly: "She reminds me of my granny. She lived to 101 and said many of the same things." James later posted another video reflecting on his grandmother's lifestyle and attributing her robust health to the structure of her home. "She lives in a very tall, thin house and she's always going up and down the stairs," he said. Content cannot be displayed without consent He touched upon health risks associated with ageing. "When we get past a certain age, the risk of death and illness from a heart attack and cancer kind of reduces and it's much more about the risk of falling over and breaking a hip or something." The fitness expert went on to say: "Whereas if you can maintain good strength that will also carry over to balance and mean that you are less likely to fall over – so I think part of the reason she has remained very healthy is that she's stayed in this tall house which is always training her legs indirectly." Everyday habits and healthy ageing According to the NHS and studies published in The Lancet Public Health diets high in fruit, vegetables, and wholegrains, and low in processed foods, are consistently associated with reduced risk of chronic diseases, including type two diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and certain cancers. You might also have heard of the so-called 'Blue Zones' which are regions where people frequently live past 100. In these areas, such as Okinawa (Japan) and Sardinia (Italy), common features include plant-based diets, daily movement, limited alcohol intake, and strong social connections. While genetics play a role lifestyle factors are understood to have a significant influence on healthy ageing, according to research from the University of Exeter and the National Institute on Ageing. Article continues below The UK's Chartered Society of Physiotherapy recommends regular movement and strength-building activity in older age to maintain mobility and reduce fall risk as data from Age UK shows that falls are one of the leading causes of injury-related hospital admissions in people over 65 in the UK.

Ryanair to increase underseat free bag size after EU changes
The budget airline currently allows people a small "personal bag" that must fit under the seat in front for free, but under current rules it must be less than 40x25x20cm. Under new rules this would increase to 40x30x20cm. While only a 5cm increase, it means the volume will be 24 litres instead of 20 litres - a big increase and a welcome outcome for many travellers. But, it will still mean Ryanair offers a smaller 'free bag' that main rival easyJet, which currently allows 45x36x20cm (32 litres). Other budget competitor WizzAir already allows 40x30x20cm. The date for the change isn't clear yet, but Ryanair said the change would be "implemented over the coming weeks, as our airport bag sizers are adjusted" - and would mean it's exceeding the EU's recommended minimum size. Last week, European politicians said holidaymakers should be allowed a bag with a minimum size of 40x30x15cm - and crucially another up to 100cm and 7kg in weight - without an extra fee on top of their ticket. Recommended reading: A Ryanair spokesperson said last week: "The European Parliament should let travellers decide what services they want, what services they pay for and, importantly, what services they don't." Even though the UK is no longer a member of the European Union, the rules would still impact British passengers as they cover EU-based airlines. The proposals must be voted on by the full parliament before they become law.
