Riverton and District High School aims to provide a stimulating, safe and enjoyable environment, where all individuals can achieve their full potential as productive local and global citizens. This is characterised by the educational platforms of wellbeing, community partnerships, technology and success for all.
Our school provides a quality secondary education to students from Hamley Bridge, Stockport and Tarlee in the south, Manoora, Waterloo, Black Springs and Saddleworth in the north and Marrabel, Rhynie and Riverton in the central Gilbert Valley area.
Riverton's motto 'Strive for Excellence' is reflected in the school's success in extra-curricular programs such as Viticulture School of the Year and Le Cordon Bleu Challenge, and participation in the Northern Manufacturing Concept to Creation project.
We have a 50-hectare farm that has broad acre farming, a woodlot, olives, gardens, a vineyard, sheep, cattle and poultry as well as producing a range of quality wines.
The school caters for pathways into tertiary study as well as very successful vocational directions which will include viticulture and automotive through involvement in a Trade Training Centre. Science laboratories are modern and well-equipped, a new Performing Arts Centre opens in 2011, and most classrooms have Interactive White Boards.
