YEAR-eight students at Oakbank School in Keighley donned caps and gowns to graduate in style.

Afternoon and evening ceremonies were held, well attended by family, friends and staff.

Linda Tomlinson-Askham, Oakbank's year-eight progress manager, said: "It was an amazing atmosphere.

"Over 200 students with their families came along for the graduation into year nine.

"The students were in high spirits and a positive, supportive vibe was felt throughout.

"I am so very proud of all the students' hard work and determination."

Refreshments were served afterwards and pupils could pose for commemorative photos.
