Easter Egg Hunts

NEW and IMPROVED! We will be holding our annual Easter Egg Hunts on the Wentworth School grounds on Saturday, March 24. We will be holding two hunts, both open to Grades Pre-K through 5 children -- one at 3:30 pm and the flashlight hunt at 7:30 pm. This year you do not need to bring your own bag! We ask that everyone to meet in the Wentworth Cafeteria upon arrival for check-in, to pick up your egg collection bag, and to participate in some fun activities while we wait for everyone to arrive. Of course, the Easter Bunny will be making an appearance so be sure to snap a few pictures while you're there. If you are participating in the flashlight hunt, you must bring your own flashlight.
