Presents for nursery teachers - should I get the students as well?

Was just wrapping up DD1 and DD2's nursery teacher presents, they have 3 each in each room so thats 6 (thanks for Boots 3 for 2's) anyway in DD1's room there are currently 2 students, one of which she is always talking about and looks forward to the days she is in. In DD2's room there always seems to be someone I don't know and theres also someone working specifically with a SN girl too.

Thing is I usually ask the DDs to hand them to their teachers, do you think DD1 will get upset when the student she likes doesn't get a present?

If you were a student would you be upset if the regular teachers were getting presents and you weren't?

Oh I should just have bought a box of Roses for them all, I hate this teacher buying business, argh!!!!

I didn't expect anything when I was on placement.

The teacher got given something and the parents apologised profusely - I told them to not be so silly; I was only going to be in the class for 5 weeks!

Could you get a cheap box of biscuits for the staff room so they get "something" but nothing too pricey?

I sent pressies in for the students in pre-school but as I was making fudge the recipe made enough for the extra 3 bags (saved me eating it anyway) and as I had loads of bags, tags, ribbons etc from last year theres been no additional cost.
