Having cared and looked after your child all year round, this is the perfect time to choose a little something to show them how much you appreciate all they have done. At the end of the year, they deserve something special. These teacher gift ideas tick that box.
Unique Teacher Gift Ideas
If your little one is reaching the end of their school year, show their teacher how much you both appreciate their efforts by gifting them one of these seven teacher appreciation class gift ideas. You can guarantee they won’t already have it!
1: “Thanks for Helping Me Grow” Plant Pot
Our personalised bamboo plant pots are one of our most popular teacher gifts. Our plant pots can be engraved with delightful phrases to make the teacher smile, such as ‘Thanks for helping me grow this year!’ and ‘a teacher plants a seed that never stops growing.’ If you are looking for a whole class gift the classes names can be engraved on the other side of the pot. It’s a fun reminder of that year of class and is sure to make the teacher smile each time they look over at it.
The pots look great with a hardy plant that the teacher (and the kids!) can easily look after. Lavender is a good option – as is aloe vera! They also look great with a mini Christmas tree and if uses as a whole class gift gift vouchers can be attached to the tree.
The pots also look great on a desk filled with pens, textas etc and we know teachers can never have enough stationary.

Teacher’s love to add their personal touch to their rooms, and a fun , personalised classroom sign is a gift a teacher can take with them no matter which classroom or school they maybe teaching in.
