The police Eagle helicopter has finished three days of operations in Hawke’s Bay, which included monitoring gang member numbers and activity during a tangi around Waipawa.
The helicopter also undertook reconnaissance flights over residential suburbs of Napier and Hastings.
It also found time to drop into Reignier Catholic Primary School.
A police spokesperson said: “Eagle’s crew got to answer some questions from the curious children, who were eager to learn about what they do”.
