STUDENTS and staff went to their school's first-ever leaving prom - without knowing where it was being held.

It was kept a tight secret from Rawthorpe High School's Year 11 students until they got there.

Sam Diskin, a learning mentor at the school, kept the fact that it was to be held at the town centre Huddersfield Hotel as a surprise.

Coach and limousine drivers were specially briefed.

Miss Diskin said: "A prom will now be an annual event following this success."
