The Isle of Man's schools are taking part in all sorts of weird and wacky exploits for Red Nose Day today (Friday), with many having red-themed events.
Ashley Hill pupils are dressing exclusively in the colour, as are youngsters at Braddan, Schooil Vallajeelt and Schooil Ree Gorree, while Ballacottier's canteen will be serving only red food.
Funny fashions will be sported in a number of schools, such as Auldyn Infants and Michael Primary, while Castle Rushen will be full of clowns and Foxdale, pirates and princesses.
Talent shows are also proving popular, with Rushen, Phurt le Moirrey and St Mary's Roman Catholic School all holding them.
Arbory pupils have been challenged to do something funny for money, in front of judges and a 'laughometer'.
The money raised on Red Nose Day goes towards helping transform the lives of people across Africa.
