Dear Riverside Community,
It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of Peter Daish, our beloved former Director whose visionary leadership shaped our school into the outstanding institution it is today. Though he retired in 2022, his commitment never wavered, and his legacy of service spans 25 years. Our hearts go out to his wife Jo, son George, and all who knew and loved him. We will keep you informed about services to honour Peter's remarkable contributions.
With heartfelt condolences,
Riverside School

We will always remember the kind, warm welcome of Mr Daish when we first visited Riverside, and every morning we arrived with our daughter at the school. So many happy memories of our stay in Prague are connected to Mr Daish. May he rest in peace. Our condolences to the family.
My condolences. A good man, who cared about what the students who he worked for did. I am lucky that I ran into him on my flight home a few years ago. Rest easy, sir.

I am really sorry to read such sad news. Condolences to his family and Riverside school community. I will remember the kind man and the wonderful photographer he was.
We’re all so incredibly sad to hear this news . It is impossible to imagine Riverside without Peter Daish - but his legacy will live on in the school and through the memories of all those whose lives he has touched. Our three children adored every moment of their time at Riverside, and I have now spent more than ten years as a teacher thanks to his willingness to take a chance on me. Sending our love and thoughts to Jo, George, and everyone in the Riverside community from the Taylor family - Paul, Catalina, Mimi, Harry, and me
My condolences to his family! The picture you chose with the cabbage is I think one of my fondest memories of Mr Daish. I will always remember that face he made when my class chose to use a cabbage for our graduation speeches! ❤️ May he rest in peace with our Lord.
