SCHOOL proms have taken place across Bournemouth, Christchurch, Poole and the wider Dorset area over the past few months.

Students have been donning their best outfits for the special occasions which have been held at school halls, stadiums and hotels.

Some of the most memorable arrivals so far have included red double decker buses, sports cars, motorbikes and even a horse with red carpets also rolled out to welcome the students.

The Daily Echo attended a number of the events to capture students making an entry in style and a prom picture special was published in the paper on Wednesday, July 20.
