A school of outstanding opportunity
When asked what the best thing is about their school, Riverside students always mention two things: their teachers and the opportunities available. Why opportunity? Because girls particularly enjoy the nurturing of friendships outside the classroom; indulging in a new passion and showing the community their pride for their school.
Excellence in girls education is about opportunity: to be academic, sporty, reflective, empathetic, creative, eccentric, socially aware - opportunity to be ‘the you within’.
Through our enrichment activities and camp programs students become independent thinkers, can voice their opinions and take responsibility for their actions.
'This is a school that if you seize what it has to offer, allows you to be you - the you, you wish to be.
