THE world was a stage for youngsters at Romsey Abbey Primary school when they performed an all singing and dancing version of Alice in Wonderland.

Described as the most ambitious show ever by the school, a cast of 120 performed a medley of 12 song and dance routines.

The production beat the school's record for the most special effects and stage lighting used in a Christmas show.

On the final night, an award was presented to deputy headteacher Nick Hutson, who is leaving at the end of term.
