School wants dogs to keep off grass

An Island primary school is asking pet owners to keep off its grass.

Onchan Primary School, on School Road, took to Facebook to issue its plea.

It says with warmer weather, youngsters will be using its field more, so its reminding people there are no dogs allowed on it - even outside school hours.

In its post, the school says there's a recreation area with dog facilities nearby and people should use that instead.
