The flag at St Ninian’s High School is flying at half mast today following the death of a student at the weekend.
14-year-old Lucia Porter was killed in a car crash on the Switchback Road near Peel on Saturday night.
In a statement released by the school she’s been described as a student with a ‘caring nature’ who had settled well into the upper school in year 10.
Cruse Bereavement counsellors are also offering support in both the upper and lower school – which Lucia’s younger sisters attend - for staff and students.
Headteacher Andy Fox says the school is in a state of shock:
