Nine-year-old Benshley Francillon took to the hoops two at a time, while his pals, Kayla Tulloch and Makajah Marks, 11, and 10-year-old Brianna Hill, jumped up and down the old-fashioned way — with their feet!
Big-hearted youngsters stepped up the battle to find a cure for heart disease by putting their best foot forward for a benefit jump-a-thon at the school on Farragut Road, off Albany Avenue in East Flatbush.
The nimble troupe drew rave reviews, transforming the school yard into a mini-Olympic show hall as boys and girls twirled hula hoops, alternated traditional jump-roping with the more complex “Double Dutch” version, or just leapt around to raise money for the American Heart Association.
