A nutrition expert has been learning about school meals on the Isle of Man

Liz Metzger, leading a rotary sponsored group from New York, is on a four week trip to Britain, and is on the Island until Thursday.

She's previously worked in nutrition, and was keen to learn how the Island tackles school meals.

The Department of Education and Children was pleased to hear how similar approaches on the Island and in New York are working to improve nutrition in different settings
