Hundreds of school children dressed in neon orange decorated Tauranga's CBD this morning.

More than 550 students from 27 schools parading through the city to raise awareness of road safety around schools.

The Orange Day Parade celebrates the important contribution students have made to road safety within their school communities throughout the year.

A reporter at the scene said there would have been several hundred participants and on lookers for the event.

Starting on The Strand next to the waka, the parade went through the CBD along Harrington Street, Willow Street, Grey Street, Elizabeth Street, Devonport Road and The Strand.
