A colourful display of farm equipment could be seen in the parking lot of Petrolia's high school Wednesday.

Senior students at Lambton Central Collegiate Vocational School participated in "drive your tractor to school day."

The annual tradition is a way for students to show pride in their rural heritage.

About 30 students participated with their tractors, new and old -- some even riding a few lawnmowers to school.
