The girls filled shoe boxes with toys and warm clothing as a kind gesture for children who may never have received a gift before.
Rotarian Margaret Morley presented Sophia and Florence with a shield, framed certificates as well as other gifts to thank them for their efforts.
Mrs Thomas, acting Head Teacher, said: "We’d also like to thank the Rotary Club for their kind donation to Budbrooke School of a lavender plant.
