I had to time it perfectly to land on them without falling. It took me ages to get through the whole obby without falling off. Zeke would have blitzed it in one go because he's an obby pro! I so badly wished he was here right now. After finishing the obby, I went outside to check out the grounds. It was EPIC! I had jumping castles, farm animals and park equipment. There was even a huge pool with a waterfall and waterslide! I then came across a huge outdoor building with massively high walls and a large dome roof. Going inside, I discovered that Other-Ari had an entire herd of DRAGONS in there! One of them flew right up to me and hovered above me. He leaned in and sniffed…

ENEMY TIPS First thing you should do when facing an enemy is work out its weakness. If you come up against a fire enemy (like Fire Chuchu, Fire Keese and Fire Wizzrobe), launch a water arrow to put out its fire. Another way to inflict a lot of damage on an enemy is to sneak attack them before you engage in full combat. Wondering what to do you when you meet a Lynel (one of the toughest enemies in game)? Make sure your backflip and side-jump dodging skills are up to scratch. You have the upper hand if you find the weakness! FUSING TIPS Running low on items? Look around your environment. You’ll be surprised by all the objects that can be fused – metal crates, rocks, wheels… Even bones!…

K-Z: Hi Silia! What has been your fave news story so far? S: A story about Spyders, because we pretended to be super spies! K-Z: Has there been a moment while filming Nick News where you couldn't stop laughing? S: There have been many, because we laugh regularly on set.

SNIFFERS Fans probs remember the Minecraft Live mob vote in 2022. The winner was the ‘sniffer’, and now this creature has been brought back from extinction. Sniffers are a passive mob that won’t spawn naturally, and can only be hatched from eggs in archaeology sites. The baby snifflet (we’ll be calling everything cute a ‘snifflet’ from now on) will grow into a huge sniffer, one of the biggest friendly mobs! The mob sniffs out ancient seeds for unique plants in dirt, grass, and moss blocks. For a sniffer to dig, it can’t be doing anything else – so it can’t be in water, on the ground, in a minecart or boat, and the block under the head needs to be diggable and reachable for the sniffer. You can use the…

REAL LIFE SPOOKY ENCOUNTERS… Since filming, I’m more cautious of bumps in the night, or unexplainable sounds in the dark. You can get a glimpse from the corner of your eye that there is more to that realm than ‘meets’ the eye. TOP TIP FOR DEALING WITH THE SUPERNATURAL… Hire professionals! We hired several in the movie. Ben was an expert in the area and had a scientific background. Father Kent brought him in to help. Harriet was a medium who helped us get in touch with the ghost realm. WORST SPIRIT TO BE JOINED WITH… The Hatbox would be the scariest. Did you see the way he carried his head? Seeing that guy in a dark alley would really put a scare in you. No Hatbox Ghosts for me,…

Meet George Pantazis, winner of the 2022 Prime Minister’s Prize for Excellence in Science Teaching in Primary Schools! K-Z: Hello George! What work did you do as the STEM Coordinator at Marble Bar Primary School? G: It involved combining Two-way Science (First Nations cultural knowledge) and 21st century technologies, to highlight the Nyamal language and east Pilbara culture using drone aviation, virtual reality, and local First Nations art. My parents are of Greek descent and learned English as a second language. I spoke Greek and English growing up. Moving to Australia, I lived in First Nations communities in the Goldfields and the Pilbara. I found the diverse languages spoken in the communities rich in culture and tradition. I learned the Nyamal language of the East Pilbara was endangered, with less…

1 Finley is a Reef Shark! Use a pencil. Start with a horizontal line that tilts down. His snout is a curved line, while his back is a soft ‘S’ shape. 2 Now, you can draw Finley’s stomach.
