Riva Revue

Friday 5th December 2025

What is it?

The Riva Revue is our Open Night and Concert all in one, and celebrates the amazing achievement and work of our students during this year at Riva Primary School.

Who is it for?

Riva Revue is for all students in Pre-primary to Year 6. Kindergarten students, due to sharing classrooms, are preparing their own open days and performances, and have scheduled these. All families and students are of course welcome to come in on the “main” day, of Friday 5th December 2025.

Open Classrooms – all students PP – Year 6, from 4:00pm – 4:45pm

Our classrooms are open. During this time, please accompany your child/ren to their classroom, where they will show you their work from throughout the year, maybe engage you in a favourite activity, challenge you to a game, or together, create something. Look, discover, learn and celebrate their year. You may stay for as little or as long as you like, but be sure to leave enough time, as the classroom doors need to close at 4.45pm, to get ready for the Concert. During this time, head down to the oval, for students to join their class group, and parents and friends to find a good viewing spot.

In addition to visiting your child’s classroom, come for a browse at:

• The gallery of student art on display in our Art Rooms  (Blue Block) – Art Galleries Open from 3:45pm.
• The amazing Science projects and work on display in the Science Lab (Blue Block); and
• Have a go with some of our skill and game sessions, with our Health and Physical Education specialists, Mr Batt & Miss Killick – look for the set-up on the grassed area in front of the library.

 

Community Concert – featuring performances from all PP – Year 6 students.

Students are to be seated on the oval (Novelli Reserve) with their classroom groups, ready for a 5:00pm start. Seating areas for each class will be clearly marked, and staff will assist with supervision and guidance.

Parents, families and friends are invited to bring rugs, picnic blankets or camping chairs and find a space near the Riva PS Amphitheatre.

There are designated zones for seating – up front for picnic blankets / ground seating, and then behind for those with camping chairs / standing.

From 5:00pm, it’s all eyes on the stage.
