Back to School Gifts

Send them some treats to start the school year right

We know what many of you are thinking, crikey, back to school stuff already? The kids have only just broken up! Well while that may be fairly true, the school term does start soon for some, here is the breakdown of back to school for the different nations in the UK:

Scotland: W/C 15th August 2022. Most school students return on Tuesday 16th August 2022 – please check with your school for exact term dates for your children.

England: W/C 29th August 2022. For many students the term will start on Thursday 1st September 2022 – please check with your school for exact term start dates for your children.

Wales: W/C 29th August 2022. For many students in Wales the term will start on Thursday 1st September 2022 – please check with your school for exact term start dates for your children.

Northern Ireland: W/C 29th August 2022. For most students in Northern Ireland the term will start on Thursday 1st September 2022 – please check with your school for exact term start dates for your children.

So, as you can see, the summer holidays will be over before you know it for many students in the UK. Noticeably Scottish schools go back around two weeks earlier than the rest of the nation, so if you are based in Scotland, or know someone who is, you’ll need to be preparing for their return to school. Even if you are in other areas of the UK, the school term will start again before you realise it, as it is only three weeks until they go back to school.

Although they have had a lovely time off on their summer break, it is time for them to think about getting back into the studying mindset. Sometimes a little bit of encouragement is needed, or perhaps you just want to make sure their school year gets off to a good start. Whatever the reason is that you want to get a back to school gift for them, we’re sure you’ll find the perfect one from Sponge. Here are some of the gift options available:

Back To School Cakes

We have a great range of cakes to send to them as a back to school treat, either to enjoy together just before they return or as something to look forward to after their first day back at school. There’s lots of flavours to choose from, and we have various options such as our Baby Sponge Cakes, which make the perfect gifts for them to enjoy. We also have a variety of dietary options to suit them too; gluten free cakes, dairy free cakes, vegan cakes, and gluten and dairy free cakes. There is something for everyone to sink their teeth into.

Back To School Brownies

Kids can’t resist brownies, especially if they are chocolate fiends. Brownies are wonderful treats for any occasion or just as a special afternoon snack. Whether you’re looking for a back to school brownie to be delivered to your home or a brownie gift to send to a loved one, we’re sure you’ll be pleased with all of our brownie options and our brownie delivery service. We have great flavours to choose from, and we also have gluten free brownie and vegan brownie options available.

Back To School Cake Cards

Cake cards are a unique gift that you can send through the post to brighten up someone’s day for any occasion. They consist of a card and a choice of one or two slices of yummy cake, all packaged together in a specially designed A5 box.
