Riv Kids
The aim of Riv Kids is for home schooled children to have the opportunity to play freely and form friendships with children who they meet on a regular basis, as well as for the mums (or dads) to get to know each other and offer support and encouragement in our home-schooling journeys. Riv Kids meets weekly on Friday mornings at Mt Riverview.

Show and Tell * |
* Show & Tell: This will be a short time for children, who would like to, to share with the group anything about what they have been doing or learning at home. For example: reciting a poem, reading a story he/she has written, playing an instrument, showing an artwork or photo or workbook page. (This is NOT an opportunity to show and tell toys.) It’s an opportunity for our children to encourage and share with each other their journeys as learners, and practise ‘being in front of a respectful audience’.
** Please note that Coco’s Keyboard will only be available for 30th Mar Show & Tell, feel free to bring your own keyboard for a different Show & Tell date…
Please bring a piece of fruit per child to be cut up and shared for morning tea.
Please BYO mug and we will provide tea and coffee, milk and sugar.
We need to clean up after ourselves! This will involve: wiping tables, benches, sweeping the floor, cleaning the toilet and sink. We encourage children to be involved in this act of service too. Please look out for opportunities to help and encourage children to do so too.
In the event of rain or gloomy weather please bring along a board game, card game or similar activity to share. (Wear thick socks for the cold floor inside!)
Please don’t bring along your children’s toys.
Please be prepared to supervise your children at the activities they choose to be involved in.
Please remember that each parent is responsible for supervising their own child/ren and ensuring that Riv Kids is a
friendly and safe place for everyone.
