Memories of Sheffield proms in the 1990s & 2000s with 11 photos

With school prom season almost upon us once again, we have delved into The Star’s archive to look back over celebrations held in Sheffield during the 1990s and 2000s.

As we near the end of the latest school year, pupils across the city are preparing to say farewell to their school years, and to mark the occasion with friends.

The trends may have changed, but the way in which proms give teenagers a chance to let their hair down and dance the night away, all whilst dressed in their finery, remains exactly the same as it ever was.

This retro collection of pictures features proms held at a number of Sheffield schools, including Don Valley, High Storrs, Notre Dame and Tapton.

Take a look through, and see if you can spot anyone you recognise.
