Top 5 best teacher gifts 

You want to give something nice but not too expensive. Something that’ll be wanted but not too personal. Here are some tips to make it easy.

Here are some tips from teachers.
Ask your teacher what she/he wants.
If it’s expensive, group together for it.
Feel awkward asking? Suggest a few things and let her choose.
Or, give a voucher or something that can be exchanged.
If you know their interests, it helps. Ask – sport, art, reading, outdoors, hiking, music …
Are they traveling this Summer? – maybe something for the trip


1. 20 parents x $15 = $300 gift 

One group gift rather than lots of little things. Try www.GroupTogether.com. It takes the hassle out of collecting money from other parents. Set it up in minutes. Then they email the parents, let them chip in online (or not), send weekly reminders, creates a card with personal messages and pics. They don’t sell gifts. They just do the collecting and then they send you the money to buy whatever you like.

GroupTogether.com collects for you and creates a group card


2. kindle (under $200), ipad mini ($370) 
 
Perfect for the Summer holidays and beyond. If you have extra money, buy itunes or amazon vouchers to top it up.
 
 

3. Vouchers

As long as they have a long expiry and are geographically suitable (ie either online, near home / school, available everywhere like a chain store). Here are some suggestions:


  • Westfield voucher
  • Sports teacher – Rebel voucher, Lululemon, Ananconda
  • Art teacher – art store, art book store, gallery membership
  • Dinner at a restaurant for 2
  • Music teacher – itunes. You can email a voucher. Easy!
  • Movie tickets. Goldclass or regular.
  • If you know their favourite store, choose it!
4. Special experiences
Ask your teacher what she/he’d love. Make some suggestions.


Try Redballoon for inspiration

  • Sydney Harbour Bridge Climb ($160pp)
  • Jet Boat ride. Try thunderjetboat in Sydney (around $35pp) 
  • Massage or spa treatment. Find a local one or try Endota. There are 80 in Australia
 
 
 
 
5. Tickets – sports game or concert
 
  • Theatre or concert tickets. Try Sydney Theatra Co, Australian Chamber Orchestra, Sydney Dance Co, Turandot on Sydney Harbour Ticketek or similar in your city.
  • Sports game tickets 

 

Cricket Australia

 

 
PS: More personal?
 
Not for everyone, but a book of pictures or letters from the kids rocks! The book itself can be printed by photobook online companies. We love the hard page books from artisanstate.com (great quality, quick and inexpensive). To pay for the printing, let parents chip in online via GroupTogether.com. It takes 5 minutes to set up and saves you from the hassle of chasing people up or getting left short.

Since the lockdown, everyone wants to LIVE their lives - get out there, do stuff we couldn't do before. This is just one example - a five hour deep sea reef and game fishing charter. There's one in every state listed on Redballoon. You receive tips and tricks from experienced skippers and deckhands. Set off to the open sea for an awesome day of reef or game fishing. Suitable for both beginners and experienced anglers, it costs about $130pp. Nice to give two if enough people chip in. Give a Redballoon gift card and let him choose or choose for him!
