Pupils get real life taste of politics
There's a new opportunity for youngsters in the Michael community to try their hand in local politics.
Local authorities in the sheading have founded a 'young commissioners scheme', where students in Years 3 to 6 meet once a term for a meeting, mirroring the actual commissioners meetings.
They'll be considering an all manner of local issues, and will have real-life input into Kirk Michael's recreational areas.
A first for the Isle of Man, Michael Commissioners hope other local authorities will follow suit.
The authority's Vice Chairman, Carole Melaugh, says the children's ideas will be listened to:
Plans for 'all-age pathway' for adult autism and ADHD diagnosis by 2029
Some trailers got 'lost' during recent backlog of freight at Heysham
Police told to reassess FOI response
Census support available from next week
