Here at Riverbend Primary School we currently offer three Specialist programs. These programs include Art, STEM and Physical Education (PE)
Please see below for more information relating to these programs
Art
Experiences provided by a wide range of activities in the Art Room are invaluable in a child’s development. The children have a one hour Art lesson each week and enjoy experiencing a variety of materials and media such as Painting, Drawing, Construction and Textiles.
Children are required to have an Art Smock for Art activities. There are commercial ones available but an old shirt is also fine to use. Please send along to school on the first day clearly named.
STEM
STEM stands for Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics. The students will go to the STEM room for one hour per week and will be engaged in hands on activities that will develop their critical and creative thinking skills.
Physical Education (PE)
A varied P.E. program is offered, including ball handling skills, athletics, gymnastics, motor coordination etc. We have a gymnasium that facilitates most of these activities. We run an annual whole school swimming/water safety program.
It is recommended that children wear the sports uniform and runners on their allocated P.E. day.
