Students fanned out across Nelson on Monday morning to help make the community a cleaner place as part of Earth Day activities.

Trafalgar Middle School, South Nelson Elementary and Wildflower hit the streets to paint storm sewer drains with yellow fish as part of a Canada-wide awareness project that protects streams and water sources.

While teams of students took care of the storm sewers, hundreds of other students dispersed throughout the community to collect garbage.

The students were expected to participate in their clean-up and painting all morning.
