1. Personal gifts from students
A cup with the teacher's name
Many teachers start the day with coffee or tea, and a cup with their name in raised print from custom UV prints for coffee cups is used every day. For mugs and steel cups, use UV DTF stickers by the piece, durable and resistant to water and scratches.
Bookmark
Custom printed bookmarks (18 × 6 cm) suit Arabic and reading teachers, with the teacher's name and a student's thank-you. More ideas in custom bookmarks.
Flower card
The custom printed flower card holds a flower with "Thank you, teacher" and the student's name, a simple gift every student can give.
Gifts by subject
- Arabic teacher: a bookmark with a line of poetry or a calligraphy board.
- Maths and science teacher: an acrylic desk calendar with a geometric design.
- Art teacher: an acrylic board printed with students' own drawings.
- PE teacher: a steel mug with their name on a durable UV DTF sticker.
- Kindergarten teacher: a flower card with children's small drawings and names.
2. Group gifts from the class
When the whole class shares one gift, choose something special like the custom round acrylic desk calendar, carrying the teacher's or class name and used all year. Find more in custom acrylic products.
Ideas to complete a group gift
- A large card signed by all students.
- An acrylic board with every student's name and a thank-you.
- A box with a named cup, coffee and dates.
Wrapping and the gift card
Place the cup or calendar in a simple calm-coloured box, add a printed gift card where the student writes a thank-you by hand and seal it with a name sticker. For a class gift, make the card large enough for every student's signature; teachers often keep these cards for years.
3. Management gifts for all teachers
- Raised UV prints for tea cups from 50 pieces, ideal for the staff room. More in UV prints for tea cups.
- The printed square tag (5.5 × 5.5 cm) tied to each gift with the teacher's name.
- The folded tag with clear bag for sweets with a thank-you message.
Seal wrapping with the school logo or "Thank you, teacher" using our stickers.
