With our short story competition closing on Friday 16 August, it’s now time for students to produce their final work and for teachers to get busy uploading!

ACTF Education is hosting multiple virtual learning events for primary students this month. Would your class like to interview the cast of Hardball in our upcoming webinar? Or laugh along in a series of Comedy Scriptwriting Workshops?

Having been described as ‘Little Lunch meets Sherlock Holmes’, primary teachers and students alike will love Gristmill Productions’ latest children’s program, The Inbestigators. The series is now available to download from the ACTF Shop.

The Australian Children’s Television Foundation was very proud to be the principal sponsor of this year’s National ALEA Conference, which was held in Melbourne earlier this month. ACTF Curriculum Officer Janine Kelly shares her highlights from this inspiring conference below.

On August 30, Australian primary students will have the unique opportunity to be part of a live Q&A webinar with Hardball cast members: Semisi Cheekam (Mikey); Reannah Hamdan (Salwa); Logan Reberger (Jerry) and Erin Choy (Tiffany). This free webinar is open for Year 3-6 students.
