Bring the whole class to Riverhouse

A field trip should do more than take children out of the classroom. It should strengthen what they are already learning through storytelling, pottery, painting, drawing, needlework and more.

What to expect

We divide the class into two groups so everyone has room to work.

First session

The first 45-minute session runs from 9:30 to 10:15 AM.

Break and second session

After a 15-minute break, the second 45-minute session runs from 10:30 to 11:15 AM.

Lunch and time together

Afterward, children can eat the lunch they brought and enjoy time together outdoors, weather permitting. There is plenty of indoor space when the weather turns.

What a visit costs

$36 for each child

That covers both studios, the clay, the paint, the thread, and the piece each child takes home. We invoice once we’ve agreed a day, so asking costs you nothing.

If cost is what’s in the way, say so. It’s a normal thing to ask, and it stays between us.

Our facility is designed to accommodate up to 24 children in two sessions. If you have a larger group, let us know and we will try to accommodate you.
