Our residents often attest that they love belonging to a village where neighbours check in on each other, spend time together and care about each other’s wellbeing. If you’re in search of a retirement village that feels welcoming, inclusive and homely from the beginning, then we think you’ll really enjoy life at Rivervue.
Our resident, Russell, says that it’s Rivervue’s strong sense of community that influenced him to choose to live our village rather than other downsizing options: “The best thing about Rivervue is its community – it’s the people, the friendship, the activities; all the things that we can do with others…Here, you can always go for a walk and meet somebody you know. And that’s the difference.”
2. You'll love the bustling social calendar
At Rivervue, there's a bustling social and activities calendar that provides endless opportunities to try something new, spend time with your neighbours and simply have fun. From sporting and wellness activities, to happy hour, themed dinners and lunches, trivia nights and regular bus trips to local shopping centres and exciting destinations, there’s something for everyone to enjoy.
“You cannot get bored” says Rivervue resident, Fatima, who enjoys her active lifestyle of indoor bowls, table tennis, aqua aerobics and more.
3. You’ll love the peace of mind gained by living in a secure gated community
An enhanced sense of safety and security is a big motivational factor for many Rivervue residents, who enjoy feeling at ease within our gated community.
