Would this be a welcome gift for my daughter’s school?

My daughter has a lot of teachers (she is in a specialist setting and there is 5 teachers and assistants in the class altogether!)

It’s going to be extremely expensive to buy for them all individually - so I’m putting a together a little hamper.

So far I’ve put in my basket (online); nice coffee, nice hot chocolate, some luxury apple and cranberry sauce condiments, some cheese and garlic twists and nut assortments type snacks, a panettone, a selection of different biscuits (Italian, belgian, shortbread), some fudge/honeycombe/brittle/nougat.

Does this sound okay or am I going to be a complete weirdo sending something like this is as a Christmas gift?!

I have never really had to buy for teachers before so I just tried to think of something that I would like to receive around Christmas time…

Is there anything that I should add or remove?

@CrapDrawerSo am I and I can guarantee that nothing would be left behind to fester in a fridge
We'd eat the lot

Coffee tea hot choc and biscuits would be lovely

It's not just me that thinks its not the greatest of ideas. And I'm only being honest as OP asked for feedback.

I think you'd be better getting each of them a small box of chocs. I got ok boxes of chocs in tescos for £3.50 each (and there were cheaper ones available) - that woukd be £14 for 4 staff which doesn't sound more expensive than what you've described.

A card being specific about what the dc have appreciated is the most important bit.
