Self-care gifts for teachers
A gift that will help their teacher to de-stress during the holidays is always welcome. This candle from the Apothecary range comes in a carry-handle box, making it an ideal gift at the end of a hectic term. A mix of lavender, sweet orange, clary sage and cedarwood essential oils help to promote a sense of wellbeing.
Or, how about this wicker basket of goodies from Scentiments, packed with scented candles, room sprays and wax melts to fill your home with inviting fragrance from the Wild Meadow and Fresh Vines range? It also contains a scented diffuser, a ceramic oil burner and a glazed mug.

Choose a gift card
The best thing about a gift card is that the recipient can buy exactly what they want, making it a winning choice if you're unsure what your child's teacher would like to receive. Our gift cards can be topped up from £10 to £500, so you can club together with the rest of the class.
Don't forget we also have e-gift cards, perfect if your child's teacher prefers to shop online.

Treat them with luxury chocolates
Chocolate is always a great choice for a gift, but don't default to an everyday box of chocolates; look for something a little different to surprise them. We've got a wide selection of sweet treats available in store.
We can't resist this gift assortment of single-origin chocolate bars including flavours such as White with Madagascan Vanilla, Ecuadorian Dark Milk and Peruvian Milk.

Give a gift set
What could be better than enjoying a glass of chilled white wine on a summer's evening? How about having a selection of savoury snacks to pair it with? We love this indulgent set that includes a bottle of Italian dry white wine, a serving of lime and chilli nuts, plus our moreish Cornish Cruncher biscuits.
You can also choose from our extensive range of gift sets and hampers containing red wine or rosé and even champagne.

Flower and plant gifts for teachers
A bouquet of flowers is always a well-received gift, but if you want to give something with more longevity, a potted plant is the answer. We have a wide range of decorative flowers and shrubs available in store that make the perfect present.
This glorious orchid can be whisked direct to the classroom with next-day delivery, perfect for inviting a sense of tranquility and calm into their home over the holidays.
