A group of students from QE II High School in Peel have been recognised for their contribution to the environment.
The youngsters were runners-up at the finals of the Volvo Adventure Environmental Awards in Gothenburg in Sweden.
They have been busy working on their 'tree CYCLE' project which involved planting trees, organising a cycle to school day, building a bike shed from recycled materials and setting up a tree nursery for new students to grow trees.
For their efforts they receive $6000 to spend on future environmental projects.
Teacher Lesley Sleight says environmental awareness is key in what young people are taught.
