They are successful thanks to the help of a jolly pirate, a wizard, a balloon man, and an Italian chef. Live footage of sea creatures, a lot of bad jokes, and wonderful musical score by recording artists "Schooner Fare" add to the merriment."

The Nargun and the Stars

Based on the children's fantasy novel set in Australia, written by Patricia Wrightson. The story involves an orphaned city boy named Simon Brent who comes to live on a 5000-acre sheep station called Wongadilla, in the Hunter Region, with his mother's second cousins, Edie and Charlie. In a remote valley on the property he discovers a variety of ancient Australian Aboriginal Dreamtime creatures. The arrival of heavy machinery intent on clearing the land brings to life the ominous stone Nargun. The Nargun is a creature drawn from tribal legends of the Gunai or Kurnai people of the area now known as the Mitchell River National Park in Victoria. Other creatures featured in the story include the mischievous green-scaled water-spirit Potkoorok, the Turongs (tree people) and the Nyols (cave people).

Revenge Of The Nerd

A 1985 educational short produced by the Learning Corporation of America, Revenge of the Nerd presents a light, classroom‑friendly look at social labeling and peer pressure. Rather than the raunchy 1984 comedy, this version focuses on how students who are dismissed as “nerds” navigate stereotypes, build confidence, and challenge unfair treatment in school settings. Designed for discussion in middle‑ and high‑school classrooms, the film encourages viewers to rethink assumptions, recognize the harm of casual bullying, and appreciate the strengths that come from being different. From the "Learning To Be Human" video series, based on the 1985 children's book by John McNamara.

Don't Be Afraid of Computers

Danny has just received a computer as a gift and is intimidated by what he perceives to be an enormously complex and alien piece of machinery. Falling into a deep sleep, Danny is visited by his computer who proceeds to explain why he shouldn't be afraid of computers. Starting with identifying the similarities between a typewriter and a computer keyboard and stressing that a computer is nothing more than an information processing machine that combines, sorts, and rearranges numbers, the program quickly dispells much of the mystery surrounding this increasingly important part of our lives. By speaking in simple terms, we are made to understand that the computer is basically dumb until it receives direction from a human operator.
