Play School - Fruit and Vegetables

Current research suggests that a growing number of children are overweight and spending less time in active play and exercise. As a result, there is increasing community awareness of the need to establish healthy eating and exercise habits in early childhood. In this series, we take a playful look at fruit and vegetables. During the week we feature a fresh fruit and vegetable store and a Farm Calendar that includes many different types of fruits and vegetables. We also include stories, songs and cooking experiences that highlight good health through a playful approach to diet and exercise. We encourage children and their families to use these experiences to explore the smells, textures and tastes of different fruit and vegetables.

Fish Hooks

This inventive animated comedy series, set inside a giant fish tank in Bud's Pet Shop, presents high school life as seen through the eyes of three BFFs (best fish friends), Bea, Milo and Oscar. Together they experience the typical life challenges and triumphs, including friendship, dating and sports, along with more atypical situations such as giant lobster attacks and, with the use of special land suits, school field trips to the hamster cages. The series was created by children's book illustrator Noah Z. Jones and features a notable voice cast. It's produced using an innovative mixture of digital animation and photo collage
