Birthday gifts
- Practical gifts
- Memorable gifts
- Anniversary gift for kindergarten
- Gifts for school anniversary
Conventionally, gifts that can be given for a school’s anniversary from graduates are divided into two categories: practical and memorable. The first category includes everything that the school uses to function, from books and textbooks to classroom repairs. The second category is all kinds of memorable gifts from students: crafts, wall newspapers, posters.
We all know that public school funding often leaves a lot to be desired, so if you want to make a practical presentation, you can ask the principal what the school needs
Practical gifts
- Planting tree seedlings . The class can contribute to the transformation of the area and plant tree seedlings. You can organize a celebratory event in honor of the end of school by gathering with the whole class to plant trees.

- Classroom renovation . Many educational institutions do not always find the funds to repair classrooms on time. Renovating a classroom is both a gift to the class teacher, who will be pleased to be in the renovated classroom, and a gift to the educational institution. Parents and graduates can do the repairs on their own, or they can invite professionals.
- Installation of plastic windows . If the windows in the classroom have not been changed for a long time, then installing plastic windows is an appropriate gift.
- Blackboard . A board will always be a necessary and functional gift. It can be a metal board with a varnish coating, or a modern interactive one, which will allow the next student to use the latest technical advances in the educational process.
- Computer . It is simply impossible to imagine the learning process without computers today. Unfortunately, not all schools have the opportunity to open a computer class. By donating a computer, you will help the educational institution in this matter.
- Books and methodological literature . School libraries are always in need of replenishment and updating. Both collections of classical literature and new textbooks, dictionaries and methodological literature will be a good present.
Books for the school library
- Sport equipment . A useful and practical gift for school is gym equipment: wall bars, balls, horizontal bars, gymnastics mats.
How to choose a gift for your teacher's birthday
Who doesn't love receiving really meaningful surprises? However, if you give such a gift from the class or even personally to the teacher, he may feel discomfort and there will be a feeling of some debt to the parent committee and their children. Our task is to please the teacher, and not to stand out from the rest of the class.
There is no law that obliges parents to chip in for a gift for a teacher. This is just a gesture of goodwill and an expression of gratitude. However, in the Civil Code of the Russian Federation there is article 575 on the topic of gifts - “Prohibition of donation”. It states that employees of educational organizations cannot be given large valuable gifts - the gift must cost 3,000 rubles. It turns out that no matter how much the parents love the teacher, it is not worth pleasing him with an overly expensive gift - so that the teacher does not have unpleasant consequences.
When choosing a gift for your teacher, follow the general rules of etiquette. Let's list a few basic tips.
- Even the most modest gift should have presentable packaging.
- Any gift can be supplemented with a greeting card signed by students and parents.
- Before wrapping a gift, do not forget to remove the price tag from the item.
- Prepare kind words for your mentor when presenting the gift.
- Any thing becomes a gift only if the soul and positive emotions of the giver are invested in it. Don’t forget about this, give with love, then any gift, regardless of its cost, will bring joy to both the recipient and yourself.
