On her travels she came across a band of fairies and returned with Princess Ida and Iolanthe (the fairy queen) plus a few other Nobel gentlemen to tackle the pirates the next time they arrived in Paragonia.
In the end a sorcerer outwitted the pirates and they turned from their wrongdoings and fell in love with an upstanding bunch of policeman. Once again harmony was restored to the happy desert island.
The main roles were played by children from years 5 and 6 and they were supported by year 3 and 4, who confidently led the singing.
