Programs

  • Imaginative Learning Programs

    Riverside offers five imaginative learning programs: (1) Tutorial: boys and girls experience the full pedagogy of Imaginative Learning. The Tutorial is a 9 month, active and engaging course in writing, speaking, drama, and journalism. (2) Ranger: two week-long summer camps offer an outdoor adventure for boys that guides them along the adventurous pilgrimage to heaven. There is brotherhood through outdoor adventures, imaginative storytelling, and prayer. Activities include canoeing, hiking, swimming, air soft, campfire cooking, etc. (3) Theatre: boys and girls participate in seasonal theatrical performance. Summer theatre camps are offered during the summer. Drama is one of the most powerful means of communication for young and old. (4) Creative Arts: boys and girls grow in imagination, creativity, fellowship, and faith. Together they learn how to sing, draw/paint, dance, and play musical instruments. The Arts have the power to awaken a greater vision of life in each person. The Arts inspire us, enliven us, and give us hope. Summer camps are offered for girls. (5) Maker: A team of craftsman and artists run Maker Sessions throughout the year. The Sessions take place at places amenable to the particular session-homes of "Riverside Friends", and the workshops of some of our experts. Maker Sessions are hands on activities that focus on craftsmanship, artistry, and technical skills with a view towards making useful and beautiful things. Please see the Riverside website (rside.org) for all the details.
