Hi girls, This month we're appreciating our besties. When was the last time you and your friends did something really fun together? I'm super-lucky because I get to see my BFFs nearly every weekend, either when we go and see all the cool new movies together or when we just hang out at home and chill out.

JUST ROLL WITH IT HOT NEW SHOW This series follows the newly blended Bennett-Blatt family - stepsiblings Blair and Owen and their fun-loving parents Rachel and Byron - as they navigate everyday family life. The difference with this show is that at any moment during the episode, the scripted action is suddenly interrupted by the sound of a foghorn. The actors then go backstage while the studio audience uses electronic voting devices at their seats to select which of the three comedic scenarios they would like to see take place next. Kind of like choose your own adventure! Once votes are in, the actors return to continue the unscripted scene, making it up as they go along. So cool!

Not every game is about shooting aliens in the face. Some swap blood and gore for experiences that are illuminating and spiritual. Games like Concrete Genie, which is out on PS4 October 8. The story involves a young boy called Ash who is always getting bullied. To escape these haters, he runs off into the abandoned, dark, dirty streets of a ruined city to doodle in his notebook. However, when the bullies catch up, they tear his notebook to pieces, leaving his precious drawings spread across the old neighbourhoods. You set off to collect the lost pages, but that’s not really what the game is about. Instead, our hero finds himself a magic paintbrush that he can use to draw on the walls of the abandoned city. Sometimes this is…

Isabela 101  Age: 18 Nickname: Moner, Dora Birthday: July 10 Instagram: @isabelamoner She speaks Spanish Isabela has an American dad and her mum is from Peru, so the first language she ever learnt was Spanish. It wasn’t until she was a little older that she started to learn the English language. “When I went to pre-school my teachers thought that I was a little slow because I didn’t know a lot of the words that children spoke. It was really hard catching up with all of the other kids,” she says. But, knowing how to speak two languages is an awesome skill – and we think it definitely helped Isabela to land the role of Dora! She’s super smart Juggling an acting career and getting a good education must be…

SOCIAL CELEBS TAYLOR SWIFT One of our fave artists, Taylor Swift has sadly had a lot of things said about her on social media that hasn’t been nice. As hard as it is though, Tay encourages us all to tell our teachers or parents if we see any cyber bulllying online. Taylor believes you shouldn’t bully back, instead you should try and rise above it, just like she’s done. She said recently on stage at one of her concerts, “If someone uses name calling to bully you on social media, and even if a lot of people jump on board with it, that doesn’t have to defeat you. It can strengthen you instead.” So positive! @taylorswift13 @taylorswift OMG! The low-down on text talk Don’t know your OMGs from your BRBs?…

ALL ABOUT THE... Koala • Though they're often called koala ‘bears’, a koala is not a bear; it is a marsupial. • Koala's often sleep for up to 18-20 hours a day! • Koalas have five digits on each front paw, two of which are opposed to the others, much like our thumbs are able to move differently from our fingers. This helps them to hold firmly onto branches and grip their food. The second and third digits are formed together to make a grooming claw. • A baby koala is called a joey and is only two centimetres long at birth.
