Use school grounds over the summer holidays but treat them with respect.
That is the plea from Minister for Education and Children, Tim Crookall, after the schools broke up for the summer holidays on Friday.
Mr Crookall says it's a shame vandalism occurs, but the facilities must be available:
Police appeal to find three individuals to help with investigation
It's following an incident near Sam Webb's pub in Douglas last month
Dates for offshore windfarm scrutiny meetings announced
Independent examining body to look at plans for Mooir Vannin project
Some residents in Onchan without power
Third party damage has affected the supply
January's inflation rate stays the same
The annual rate as measured by CPI remains at 3.3%
Child benefit payments delayed due to technical issue
Treasury apologises following system fault
