PARENT INVOLVEMENT

At Riverside we encourage parents to get involved, this can be in many different ways. At the beginning of the year we are in need of volunteers to be Class parents. Class parent organises social gatherings with their class and at times help to organise fundraising events. This is a great way to meet other families. The Riverside Preschool AGM is held in March of each year, parents are asked to join the committee this is a great way to get involved with Riverside.

There are many other ways to help, ongoing maintenance, working bees and every year we need a book club co-ordinator. We love having parents or families visit preschool to share with us an experience or special interest.

There are many ways to get involved at Riverside!

COMMUNITY INVOLVEMENT

At Riverside we are fortunate to have the Henley Green Community Garden in our backyard, this project is organised by the Happy Hens and is an integral part of our centre.  The children enjoy regular outings to the garden to feed the chickens, Rosie, Daisy, Snowy and Chook. We often take the time to wander through the garden and involved in watering and planting. It is a highlight of our day! happyhens.org.au

We love having visits from the local Community,

Police

The children regularly go on excursions in our local community, we visit the Street Library which is at the top of our driveway. This Street Library was painted by the children of Riverside and our very talented Riverside staff, it is worth a visit if you are looking for a good book.
