The end of the school year is coming!

With the May half-term holiday approaching, the end of another school year is coming soon!  As parents to young children ourselves, the GiftRound team know that this busy time of year is filled with events such as sports days, school concerts and fairs and school trips - anything to help alleviate the admin pressure facing modern parents is much needed!  GiftRound offers a quicker, easier and more secure method to group-collect for a gift to thank a special teacher or teaching assistant at the end of term - helping you tick one thing off your lengthy to-do list!

Creating a GiftRound to say thank you to a teacher or teaching assistant helps your gift go further.  We’ve all been there when we’ve tried to find a gift for a teacher that looks good but doesn't cost too much - do they really need another box of chocolates/biscuits/a nice mug/a bottle of wine?!  By collecting together with other parents you can give a combined substantial amount to your recipient and allow them to choose a meaningful gift for themselves to remember their class with fondness.  Empowering recipients to choose their gift is also a more sustainable way of gifting as the recipient chooses something just right for them and the gift is more likely to be kept and cherished.

GiftRound recognises the huge effort and commitment required to be an inspirational teacher or teaching assistant.  We want to make it as easy as possible for busy parents to join together and say thank you to teachers and teaching assistants for the wonderful work they do.  Say ‘thank you’ at the end of term with a GiftRound.
