Hi Nina! Tell us about your awesome character, Lulin! Lulin is certainly not your ordinary character. She’s half human, half alien for starters. She’s sparky, optimistic, vibrant and funny. Lulin’s going through some little green changes – that’s what happens when you have a human dad and have lost your favourite person ever, your extra-terrestrial mum. My fave things about her is that she is not afraid of a little trouble and is a loyal friend. Oooh and her fashion sense! Lulin is passionate about science and space. What are your passions? Acting and dancing. I’m still working on my singing, haha. I LOVE drawing, roller skating, anything to do with crafts, and of course, obsessive about hair and makeup! Which experiment was your fave? The light maze, because things…

What is ‘Two Stars and a Wish’? This activity’s a fun way to give yourself feedback and help understand yourself better. You get to know your strengths, weaknesses, and things you can improve on. What you do is after school or at the end of the day, you write down two positive things you did (the stars), and one thing you could have done better (the wish). The best part is you can grant your wish in the future by learning from it and doing better. It’s like being your own wish-granting genie! Here’s an example… I really enjoyed the math game we played in class. It made learning multiplication way more fun, and I got most of the answers right! PE was great! I feel like I gave it…

BLUSH-O-METER How bad is that blush? TG’s BLUSH of the MONTH School stack My mum woke up late so I was running late for school. My mum decided to take me inside so that she could apologise to my teacher for making me late. We were running through the hallways when my mum tripped and fell forwards onto me! We made such a loud noise, that some people came out of their classrooms to see what had happened. SO embarrassing! Amelia YouTube, you who? I was in class with my friends and we were talking about which boys knew my YouTube channel. One of my friends guessed my crush and yelled it out really loudly.

LISTEN UP! Yours Forever Jessica Mauboy Jess has been building the suspense for months and now Yours Forever is finally out! We adore the beautiful mix of songs and sweet melodies that talk about picking yourself up and never giving up. What we love most though is Jess' powerful stance on the challenges of life. Like times where we feel we can’t be ourselves and stray away from our truth. It’s okay not to feel worth it sometimes, but after listening to some of her catchy songs like ‘Right Here, Right Now’ and ‘Never Give Up’, all those doubts just melt away. There’s a song for every up or down! Out now! Your rating out of 5 stars 'Soñar (Breaker)' NMIXX Woo, like it? As in NMIXX’s new song?…

We’ve got some epic raps that are featured in our episodes and they are super catchy! How are your rapping skills? Rapping has actually always been a hidden talent of mine!

I knew of the Eddie’s Lil’ Homies books before I was involved in the series as I have lots of younger cousins who love reading them. My family loves AFL so I was a big fan of Eddie himself! So,…

1. Sabrina Carpenter Touring with Tay! Does it get any bigger than that? Sabrina is a star in her own right though – there’s a reason why she’s been in the acting and music biz for so long.
