On today’s show: A weed-whacking beetle business, a very expensive kelpie, Australia Post’s plans to recognise Indigenous Country, a fire burning in the middle of the ocean, and our newest tennis champions!
It’s NAIDOC Week, a time for all of us to celebrate the history, cultures and achievements of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. The theme for NAIDOC Week this year is Heal Country – that means everyone coming together to take care of First Nations lands, waters, sacred sites, cultures and languages. And that’s what NAIDOC News Time is all about!
To celebrate Dinosaur Week here at ABC Kids, we’re bringing you five of the world’s best stories all about dinos! We’ll be talking ancient crocodiles, backyard fossils, mammoth teeth, prehistoric sharks, and the biggest dinosaur ever discovered in Australia.
This week, we’ll be stretching, bending and twisting our bodies into all sorts of shapes for International Day of Yoga. Then, we’ll go bird-watching with scientists who have figured out how many feathered friends we have here on planet Earth. We’ll reveal the winners of some of the country’s most important art prizes. We’ll find out why teachers and students around the world are wearing skirts to school, even if it’s against the rules. And, we’ll meet a teenager who travelled across the ocean on a leaky boat to find a new, safe home here in Australia.
This week, we’ll learn about a possible solution to Australia’s massive mouse problem. We’ll make a splash with astronauts in the world’s deepest swimming pool. We’ll sashay down the runway with the stars of Australian Fashion Week. We’ll find out more about the coronavirus vaccine and why kids aren’t getting it yet. And we’ll discover the secret hiding spot of some deadly desert creatures.

We’ll meet a blind teenager and his new pooch pal. We’ll find out how horses are helping kids stay happy and healthy. And we’ll examine some ancient human poo.
This week, we’ll take a dive into the deep sea with some hungry penguins. We’ll visit a house in the United States made without a hammer or any nails. We’ll travel into the jungle of the Philippines where scientists have made a sparkly discovery inside the trunks of trees. We’ll find out the truth about a misunderstood ancient wolf.
