“ONE OF THE LOOKS I’LL ALWAYS REMEMBER IS THIS PINK CELINE DRESS. WHEN I SAW IT ON THE HANGER, I WOULD NEVER HAVE PICKED OUT SOMETHING LIKE THAT FOR MYSELF. AND THEN ONCE I TRIED IT ON, IT REALLY JUST MADE ME LIKE A COMPLETELY DIFFERENT VERSION OF MYSELF, IN A GOOD WAY.” “My favourite makeup trend is experimenting with lots of colours on the eyes. Different colours can bring out your eyes even more.” “I’m constantly going between dressing like a 12-year-old child in oversized clothing or dressing in a very feminine stylistic kind of outfit. I’m constantly going back between the two because who I am on a regular-day basis, typically depends on my mood. That’s the beautiful thing about fashion: You don’t have to be one thing.”…

We were having lots of fun until our neighbour’s son dared me to go on the roller coaster with him three times in a row. I normally love the roller coaster so I said yes, but on the last ride I started to feel sick and thought I was going to vomit. I managed to hold it in during the ride, but when we came to a stop I couldn’t hold it anymore and vomited all over the carriage and on our neighbour’s son! It was sooo embarrassing and completely disgusting! FRANCESCA, 11, SA ARTY FARTY My class was on an excursion to…

1 Eat breakfast every morning even if it’s just a banana and a glass of milk. Breakfast helps kick-start your body and gives you long lasting energy throughout the day. 2 When you eat try not to gobble down your food really quickly. Eating slowly helps your brain register that your tummy is full and in turn, stops you from overeating and getting that yucky “full” feeling. 3 Be creative! For instance, if you feel like a snack but a piece of fruit sounds boring, why not make some fruit kebabs and drizzle some honey over the top? Delicious! 4 HALF THE FUN OF EATING FOOD IS COOKING IT! HELP OUT IN THE KITCHEN AS MUCH AS YOU CAN. 5 Try new things! Have you ever had sushi? Or vegemite…

Help! MY DOG SIMON IS FIVE YEARS OLD AND HAS RECENTLY STARTED SNORING. AT FIRST IT WASN'T TOO BAD BUT LATELY IT'S GOTTEN WORSE. IS THIS NORMAL FOR DOGS? Snoring is caused by the restrictions in airflow when we breathe in. This restriction can occur anywhere along the breathing system from the nose into the lungs. The restriction occurs in the tissue causing it to vibrate and make an audible noise. The most common area of tissue that vibrates is the soft palate which is at the back of our mouths. Snoring is quite normal in dogs just as it is quite common in humans. If your dog is distressed by the snoring you should make an appointment to see the vet. ALL ABOUT THE...

WHAT INSPIRED YOU TO WRITE YOUR NEW BOOK, CHRIS HUMFREY'S AWESOME AUSTRALIAN ANIMALS? “You know what they say, ‘every cloud has a silver lining.’ COVID-19 restrictions prompted me to write the book. I would never have had time otherwise! With restrictions in place, we couldn’t physically educate people on wildlife, so the ‘light-bulb’ went on, and I thought, why not write a book to continue our educational programs and engage people on the importance of protecting biodiversity. A book that will reach out to loads more people!” DID YOU LEARN ANYTHING NEW WHILE WRITING THIS BOOK? “I did learn a few things. It’s tricky writing in a way that will engage children of different ages. Hopefully, I nailed it! I also learned how to use a QR code on my…
