Three Hawke's Bay schools helped their community during an annual student-led event yesterday.
Year 13 students from Woodford House, Iona College and Lindisfarne College helped schools, community groups and other facilities during the Servant Leadership Day.
Iona College deputy principal of wellbeing and engagement, David Trousdell, said the event, which was created by Lindisfarne College about six years ago, was a good way senior students to help out.
"It's a great leadership opportunity for them."
In past years many students would continue with some of the work started during Servant Leadership Day after being inspired, he said.
