Teacher gifts when it's a "team"

Both my DCs have a fairly large team in their class: one is in a small class in a specialist school with several TAs, and one has had a lovely supply teacher for a few weeks, regular teacher and some TAs.
Would wrapped tins of sweets to share be OK this year? One school is allowing Christmas cards but the other isn't.

Tim of sweets, biscuits or box of cupcakes is never expected but never turned down!

Staff just split between the saves dependent on preference and taste etc.

Honestly after this term staff will be grateful for anything but mostly for a lovely card with an appreciative message in.

I think we can do that!

I remember the best gift we received as a team at school was a box of mini donuts and muffins. Really enjoyed them at break time with a cup of coffee 😋

I've given a big gift bag of 10'chocolate Santa's and put on the label one for everyone. Would that work, they are individually wrapped!

That's 10 x Santa's not 10 " ones Confused

I also send a box of biscuits marked to teacher and classroom helpers. I tend to think worst case situation theyve got nice biscuits in the staff room come January.

I've done a little 'pamper' box with various face masks, bath bombs, mini hand creams and lip balms etc. In my card I said how wonderful the staff all were and how if I could afford it, I'd send them all to a day spa for a well deserved pamper... but this was second best!

I think individually wrapped will be good, I can't see DD's class teacher using a face mask though what with having a beard...
