Teacher's Day gifts

[hquek]

Gift shop auntie told me that teachers like pens (red pens) and markers. Was a bit puzzled becos I thought these should be provided by school.


Anyway, Plan A for DS to draw cards failed, so plan B was put in motion - markers and pens! Even if they dun like, at least it’s something they can use.

In my DS's class teacher didnt like if someone give her red pen

har? she buy shares so pantang? then what colour does she use to mark?

As parent, I would want to show my appreciation to teacher. It's really quite tough wracking my brains what to get. i'm so veering on 'diam diam' and not do anything next time.

Intermezzo:

wow pinky.. you can remember all your teachers' names from P1 to S4...


you must either be very sentimental and thoughtful.... or still very young..

(or probably both.. kekeke)

I'll take both as compliments hehehehe :boogie:
The teachers I mentioned played a very important role in my life so I am eternally grateful to them for showing me the joy of learning.

My son’s last year’s teacher thanked him so graciously and returned the favour with a small gift of her own to him that he was thrilled to bits! He went shopping on his own and bought a $2 air freshener. She is such a wonderful lady that even I am in love with her!!

when my son was in primary school, they would always buy 6 blue and 6 red whiteboard markers for their form teacher for 3 consecutive years bec the school did not provide enough for the teachers. i guess once they hit P4-P6, there are more explanation to do on the whitenboard :evil:

LKVM:

beats me leh.... but my DS said the teacher asked them to give any kind of seads or gloves


btw I can see lots of red mark in my son's book so............

this teacher also one kind...seeds? gloves? Maybe Popular should start a gift registry (like weddings). Still I don't think it's quite right for teachers to start issuing their wish list. Some parents may not be able to afford, kids will get stressed in that case.
