End of Year Gifts for Every Year Group — Not Just Year 6
Share
End of year gifts are not just a Year 6 tradition: reception classes, Year 3, Year 9 and Sixth Form all give personalised keepsakes at the end of the summer term, and the right product depends more on age and budget than on year group. Here is what to consider for classes beyond the usual Year 6 leavers focus.
These are the end of year gifts we make to order in our workshop in North Wales. They are laser-engraved and personalised with each child's name.
Why personalised gifts land better than generic ones
A keyring with a child's name on it acknowledges the individual, not just the class. It also gives every child something of their own on the last day, rather than a shared treat.
Gifts for younger year groups
The Personalised Birch Plywood Keyrings come in gingerbread and star shapes, playful designs that suit younger year groups. Birch plywood is a lighter colour than oak veneer, which suits brighter, more decorative shapes.
Gifts for any age group
The Personalised Class Of Keyrings work across year groups, not just Year 6: the engraving carries Class Of, the year and the child's name, with pack sizes from 1 to 100.
The You're a Star Keyring comes in two sizes and is engraved with the child's name. The star shape and message work regardless of age. For the leaving year as well, choose the You're a Star Class Of Keyring.
For a presentation or ceremony element
For year groups with a presentation, the You're a Star Wooden Medal is worth considering: a star-shaped oak medal engraved with the child's name. For a medal with a ribbon, the Congratulations You Passed medal has a clip-on red, white and blue ribbon.
If your school combines end of term with a sports day or achievement ceremony, the Personalised Wooden Medals are available in two sizes for sports and events.
