if she's teaching reception, get her some hand sanitiser, some wipes and a dozen cheap pants and knickers for those uh-oh moments (for the kids!!)

Coming from a newly qualified teacher... definitely stickers for the little'uns and may I suggest a really unusual mug for the staff room? I'm in secondary so it may not be the case in primary (they seem less territorial of mugs), but I had two mugs nicked while I was training.
Also, those smelly/scratch and sniff markers are brill too! A very nice treat and the little'uns love to get to choose their favourite colour/smell as a treat.
Biccies and chocolate are a great idea. They can really make a big difference.
Maybe a good book or two for those rare moments of downtime.
Things from Lush for a nice bath to relax.
A good, upbeat CD to sing along to in the car drive home after work.
What a lovely present for your friend, she's lucky to have you March win: Fair Squared organic spa skincare set

What about some self inking stamps. when I worked in primary the kids used to think it was a real treat if they got one of these on their hand.0
