A Douglas High School has passed its best wishes to a Manx Marine injured in Afghanistan.

Martin Peters, a former pupil of St Ninian's High School, was injured in Helmand Province last week.

Headteacher Andy Fox says his thoughts are with Martin's family, and that he is wishing him a speedy recovery.

A number of former pupils from the school are currently serving in the armed forces.
