About this episode

Episode 7 features discussions on screen time, a giant kangaroo, and celebrates inspiring women.

Episode 7 features a library book reading, a lively debate about whether kids under 12 should have to earn their screen time by helping around the house, and a fun round of Agree, Disagree, Defend played by the hosts. Students from 1/2D also share their learning about a giant kangaroo that lived in Australia long ago, and we recognise International Women’s Day by celebrating inspiring women and their achievements. The episode wraps up with some great jokes and a maths challenge involving time.
