Christmas presents?

Does anyone buy their class Christmas presents? If so, how much do you spend? I have 28 primary aged children and did have a vague idea of wrapping them all and putting them under the tree in class, but now the time is coming closer, I'm a bit concerned that I will bankrupt myself for no good reason!

If I get anything, it's chocolate tree decorations! THey love them (even in secondary) and they are cheap!

Oh that's a brilliant idea :) I'm panicking and looking at book bundles on the Book People website, but I like the chocolate idea better.

Chocolate coins. 2 for one pound. Every little helps!

Our Head buys the children a book each every year from the school. Then we give the children a card, chocolate and sweets. That's between 3 of us for 60 children. Cost us £9 total.

I get Morrisons Christmas chocolate lollies. I think they are 4 for £1. Alternatively a large chocolate coin with their Christmas card. I usually only get a little thing at Christmas and a bigger thing in the summer.

In my unbiased opinion... ... make these with their names on the other side :-). They have been very popular with every class I have given them to, from my own DC's birthday party gift bags (which is how they started!) to every class I have had on placement and supply.
