why do you need presents for all of them? a note to the whole team about what they've done that you've valued would be nicer. if a present is absolutely necessary- when I worked as a TA the best present I received was a handmade keyring, it was a piece of elastic with beads threaded on, tied at the bottom and tied to a keyring at the other end, the child had made it (with help from mum) and it is still on my keyring and I still remember who it was from.

A friend of mine made cookies and flapjacks for her kids teachers.
She made them and placed them in some pretty boxes of differing sizes and tied them with ribbon into a tower.

Her children helped her make them too

a present for all of them was needed. my son is at a pre school and ther are 8 teachers that all work with him, my other son only has 2 teachers. i brought packs of 3 candled in glass jars for 1 pound, a pack of glass paints and got the kids to design the jars. i wrote the teachers name on them all and put them in a little gift bag. only cost me about 6 pound in total and they have all got a gift x

that sounds really nice, bet they all really liked them!

Most teachers prefer something the child has made eg card, pics,etc. No need to spend a fortune. Some schools have a no gift policy. Hope this helps.

Working in a school I agree a batch of homemade cakes in the staff room always go down very well (and quickly). If you are not keen on cooking a tin of mixed sweets are always welcome and often on offer (2 for 1) etc.
