Here we are at the final month of the school year, and all of the excitement it can bring! As you can see above there are a number of big celebrations coming up, starting next week when we say farewell to our Grade 9 schools as they head off to high school.
June also brings plenty of field studies across grade levels, along with plenty of time outside. Please make sure your children have a water bottle with them each day and sunscreen to go outside as needed. Thank you to all those parents and guardians who have volunteered their time this year to make sure field studies – a central part of our success as a school – can happen as often as they do.
If your child will be leaving Riverside School next year (and they are not currently in Grade 9 – we know they are leaving!), please contact our Main Office as it will allow us to most effectively balance enrolment in our classes for next year. Thank you!

Used Uniform Sale – June 23 at 3:00 (Learning Commons)
Plans are underway for a used uniform sale, to take place during the final week of the school year, specifically on June 23, starting at 3:00.
Families can begin sending in used uniform items to the school effective Monday, June 16. A reminder that the final week of classes (June 23-27) will be “Free Dress” for the entire week of classes. Volunteers will be sorting and organizing items leading up to the sale. We will assume that all items being sent in are being donated by families, and we thank you for your support. All proceeds raised from this uniform sale will be used to provide uniform items to students whose families need financial assistance in the future.
If you are hoping to have your used uniform items sold on a ‘consignment’ basis, please reach out to our School Council directly via email at schoolcouncil.riverside@gmail.com.
Items for sale will be priced as follows: t-shirts, and polo shirts (both short- and long-sleeved) $5; hoodies, sweatshirts, and zip-up hoodies $10. Please keep in mind that there will be a limited supply of uniforms available as we have only had our new uniform pieces for 2 years!
Parent Society Bottle Drive
A huge thank you to our Parent Society, and all those Riverside families who brought in bottles and cans during the bottle drive held recently. Over $1800 was raised through this endeavour, and the funds will be used by our School Council and Parent Society to enhance student experiences here at our school.
Thank you for your continued support,
Steve Radder, Principal
Riverside School
