Just had a quick look on a couple of sites, here's what I would get in your position, along with the vice above (and for his first project, he can make hardwood plates to line the jaws of the vice with, they stop the iron jaws damaging the timber).
For a hand drill, you'll get not only cheaper but better off Ebay. Something like this:

This is from Axminster, they are all good and as cheap as is likely to be usable, but all decent quality. Parsimony is as bad as extravagance when buying tools.

These screwdrivers will last a lifetime if not abused.

This square may seem pricey, but it does the job of several and is accurate, which the cheaper ones (now made in China, badly) aren't.

Block Surform (does service as a basic plane and as a rasp).

Probably the longest saw he can comfortable handle at the moment.

Bradawl, for marking and for starting out screw holes.

A 12" one of these.
