THE Easter Bunny hopped in early this year and paid a visit to some lucky students at Rangebank preschool.
Green Gecko group kids at the Cranbourne preschool enjoyed an Easter egg hunt last week, topped off with their hand-made Easter hats and eggs.
Educator Barbara Ryan-Perkins, who played the role of Easter Bunny, spread the chocolate treats far and wide while children and their parents ran around to see who could get their hands on some first.
Ms Ryan-Perkins said an exciting time was had by all.
