Christmas has come early for OP, Steve Dade (1986 -1990), as he is the lucky recipient of this year's Princethorpe Connect Christmas Hamper Prize Draw.
Steve who lives in Coventry, with his wife of 23 years, Becky, and teenage daughter, Charly, works in behaviour management at Evergreen School in Warwick, a 4-19 school for children and young people with Special Educational Needs.
Steve will be receiving his prize from OPs Secretary, Melanie Butler, who is hand delivering it to his home in Coventry this week.
Commented Steve, “I was delighted to hear of my win, it will be lovely to share with the family over Christmas!”
Steve is still great friends with fellow OP, Richard Williams. Remembering his time at Princethorpe, Steve commented “I have some great memories from my time at Princethorpe, I was in More House and my form tutors were Paul Adams, Frank McGreevy and John Miller. I have particularly fond memories of playing for the school Rugby team as we were very good!”
We wish Steve and family a very happy Christmas indeed!
Thanks to all those who engaged with Princethorpe Connect in the run up to the prize draw, we are nearly at 1,500 online members and look forward to building on this in 2024!
