A few weeks ago, someone stole the Brooklyn Blue Feather School mascot, a 5 foot stuffed giraffe. The giraffe is was placed outside the office on the first floor. The giraffe is especially import ant for these kids because it was a welcoming sight when the kids come in first thing in the morning. The giraffe is loved by all of the kids at the school. When the staff left for home it was there and the next morning it was gone.

The kids are very upset and want their giraffe back. If someone knows anything or wants to bring the giraffe back, please bring it back no questions asked.
