Ballakermeen's summer China trip in doubt

Coronavirus impacts annual school trip

Twenty-four students at Ballakermeen High School in Douglas face the cancellation of their autumn trip to China, a victim of the coronavirus outbreak.

The secondary school has been making the trip annually for fourteen years.

Confirmation of cancellation is expected later this week, for both that trip and the arrival of Chinese students in the summer.
