The Barnes Blue Jays were on the move this afternoon for a sunny egg hunt! With over 200 eggs scattered across the grass, our speedy Pre-K students had them all scooped up in less than four minutes—now that’s what we call egg-cellent teamwork!
Big smiles, full baskets, and lots of joy were shared with their teachers and families who joined in the fun. What a sweet springtime celebration for our tiniest Blue Jays!
