Visakhapatnam: Holding placards that read 'Our good conduct is our true health,' 'Service is the highest form of worship' and 'Serving the needy is better than praying,' students of Sri Sathya Sai Vidya Vihar took part in a 'Walk for values'.

With teachers and the staff extending support, the walk was organised by the school in association with Sri Sathya Sai Seva Samithi.
