Ahh this is so difficult! I know what to get 3 of my teachers but the 4th one I'd like to get something *really* good because she's been more like a mum than a teacher. I've saved bits of my paycheque so I have a reasonable amount to spend. This one in particular has to be done for next week because she's leaving at the end of this term - the rest can wait til I actually finish the HSC.

Don't give me that "what is she interested in" shit, I don't think she's retiring to read MORE histoy books. :p

I'm not old enough to get them booze, although wine has already been thought of by other students [cheap gift]

glycerine: maybe if she has a favourite band or artist or song or whatever thats hard to find you could dig up a record of it for her. or maybe get something engraved that just plain tells her what a great teacher she's been to you. perhaps you could make a tape recording of you (and ur class if u want) u know talking to her, thanking her for stuff and all that and give her something like chocolate or whatever along with that. hmm, i dunno hope that helps you...

I usually fold stacks of origami for my teachers...although I'm going to need to come up with a better idea, because for the past few years it's been turtles-cranes-turtles-cranes...or I could just continue and give them in greater quantity.

I gave my Latin teacher (who taught me from 2001 till 2004) a crystal vase when she retired :p

Most of my friends normally give chocolate.

My friend and I are typing up letters to each of our teachers (any teachers we have together get one signed by both of us) that thanks them for everything and is really personal and stuff...as well as a small gift each, maybe like a small box of Favourites/Celebrations and flowers...but Im hopin we can individualize the gifts for each teacher...we know a fair bit about them and what they like...so yeah.

English teacher: An angel to sit on her desk.
Ancient History teacher: A magnet with her favourite Monet on it, that came from the louvre.... don't know what else.

All my teachers are also getting a report card on their progress over the past five years.
