13 photographs of Sunderland school-leavers enjoying their prom night at the Roker Hotel

Year 11 pupils at Southmoor Academy have been celebrating their prom night in a glamarous send-off at the Roker Hotel.

The red carpet event saw the youngsters donning their suits and ball gowns to celebrate their time at the school as they move on to the next stages in their lives.

It was a welcome return for the school’s prom night after two years of cancellations due to the Covid pandemic.

Check out the 13 photographs of the teenagers’ big night from last Thursday (June 30).
