Television personality Tom Coyne in action during a fete at Warwick School
Television personality Tom Coyne in action during a fete at Warwick School. Tom opened the fete but it was the headmaster who made the real splash. Mr John Strover was the unfortunate victim of a ducking game at the school pool. the event was to raise funds for a new English block and to provide bursaries to enable parents to send their children to the school. In a variation of the old duck the vicar game, Mr Strover undertook several duckings before calling it a day. Other attractions included a police dog display, hot-air balloons and a free-fall parachute demonstration.

Television personality Tom Coyne steals the show at Warwick School fete, while Headmaster Mr John Strover takes an unexpected plunge. The lively event, held on 7th July 1979, aimed to raise funds for a new English block and offer bursaries for aspiring students. As the festivities commenced, Tom Coyne took center stage as he inaugurated the fete with his charismatic presence. However, it was Mr Strover who unwittingly became the star of the day when he volunteered for a daring ducking game at the school pool. With each round intensifying in excitement and anticipation, Mr Strover braved multiple dunkings before finally calling it quits. His good-natured participation left everyone in stitches and added an extra splash of amusement to the already vibrant atmosphere. The fete boasted an array of attractions that delighted attendees throughout the day. From a captivating police dog display to mesmerizing hot-air balloons floating gracefully above, there was no shortage of entertainment options for all ages. Additionally, adrenaline junkies were treated to a thrilling free-fall parachute demonstration that had spectators holding their breaths in awe. This nostalgic photograph from Memory Lane Prints captures not only the joyous spirit of this memorable occasion but also reflects upon a bygone era -the vibrant 1970s- where community events like these brought people together for worthy causes without any commercial motives.
