I'm asking here because I know I'll get honest POV from people who probably actually experience this!
My DS (10) came home from his 5 day residential on Friday with school. He has AS and therefore needs more support than other children his age both with independence and being able to cope with social situations and new things.
Teacher said he'd been fine but were the 'obvious' situations you'd expect but that they were dealt with and he'd been sensible about the resolutions. DS has told me all incidents (he has a habit in focussing on negatives) and I think the staff deserve a medal!!!
He had his ELSA as his group leader the whole week and his class teacher supporting him at group times and activities too. Thee were also 4 other staff there and other staff visited during day - including the HT.
I was thinking of making some thankyou cupcakes and getting some hot choc sachets and writing a card apologising for my DS being a massive PiTa thanking them for making it possible for him to go. It just seems more personal to do that rather than a tin of chocs?
Would you appreciate this? Would you rather have chocolates? (My cakes aren't awful btw!)

Thankyou 'gift' after residential. Yay or nay?
