Shoe Box Appeal

Perryfields High School, Oldbury has been working with Hurst Green Home and Garden Store for four years and the Rotary Club of Edgbaston Shoe Box Appeal is now an integral part of the school's calender. The school challenges students to create 'thoughtful' shoe box gifts which will make a difference to the lives of children and families. A bumper response this year saw 120 boxes collected. 

The club would like to thank the children and families for their support again this year.
