Riverside club is held every Wednesday between 3:30 and 5:00pm throughout the school year.
Take a look at Sela’s interview with Mr Burt:
Q: When did it start?
A: Riverside club started in August 1991.
Q: How long have you been a part of it?
A: Since the day it began. It was started by me and Mrs Burt, and Mr and Mrs Liddle.
Q: Why is it called the Riverside club?
A: It’s called the Riverside club partly because I live on Riverside Avenue, but also because when the club started, it was in the Scout hall on Riverside Avenue.
Q: What gave you the idea to start the Riverside club?
A: Well we noticed that there were a lot of kids who didn’t have much to do after school, especially when there were no winter sports on. So we thought that we’d start a club that could give people fun things to do once a week after school, and that they could do camps in the holidays.
Q: Where do you get all your game ideas from?
A: Well Sela, two places really. One is from experience and friends and from reading books. I’ve acquired those games over a long, long time. The other place I get them from is, I make them up!
Sela: Thank you Mr Burt for your time.
Mr Burt: You’re very welcome.

Hi there Sela and Tanielu, I love the movie you made about the Riverside Club. As you mentioned in your interview, I was there at the very first club afternoon and my 18 year old son was a baby! I saw someone (Ashleigh) in the video whose MOTHER used to come to the Riverside club back when it was on Riverside Avenue in the Scout Hall! Wow, it has been going for a while now. And guess what I know? It is the highlight of Mr Burt's week! He doesn't even go to important meetings if they are on during the Riverside Club.
ReplyDeleteSee you on Wednesday
Mrs Burt

ReplyDeleteHi there Room 18. Riverside sure looks like a lot of fun. I liked listening to all the things you like about Riverside. It's great that weekly you get treated to a fun filled afternoon, even with afternoon tea and a korero from Mr Burt. When I was a child I had to hang out for school holidays to be involved in a club similar to Riverside. I hope you all get a chance to say thanks to Mr Burt, Mrs Lagitupu, Miss Va'afusuaga, Peni and all the other helpers.
