Our most frequently asked questions

Do people really send flowers to thank a teacher at the end of the school year?

Yes — a bouquet on or around the last day of term is one of the most popular ways to say thank you to a teacher, whether it's from one family or a whole class chipping in together. It's a classic end-of-year gesture that never feels out of place.

What should I write in a thank-you card for a teacher?

Something simple and appreciative works best — "Thank you for everything you've done this year, have a wonderful summer" is a lovely, low-key note. Mentioning something specific your child gained from the year makes it feel personal.

Is it appropriate to send flowers to a student finishing the school year or heading off to university?

It can be a sweet gesture — a bright bouquet marks the end of exams or a last day of school nicely. If they're moving into university halls, it's worth choosing a compact, low-maintenance arrangement or a small plant given how little space they'll have.

What's a good budget for an end-of-year teacher gift?

Teachers often receive several gifts in the last week of term, so a smaller, genuinely thoughtful bouquet tends to stand out more than trying to outspend other parents.

Should I send a plant instead of flowers for a teacher or a student's room?

A small, low-maintenance plant, like a succulent, can be a nice choice since it survives the summer holidays with little care and adds a bit of life to a classroom or student room long after cut flowers would fade.

Can flowers be delivered directly to a school?

Yes, as long as you provide accurate details and time the delivery before the school breaks up for the summer — it's worth checking that someone at the school office will be able to receive it, since schools don't always have the same delivery access as a home.

When's the best time to send a thank-you gift to a teacher?

The last week of term is ideal, with the last day itself the classic moment. Term dates vary — schools in Scotland break up in late June, while England and Wales finish in mid-to-late July — so check your school's dates before scheduling.
