Whether you're looking for old favourites, seasonal viewing or to discover a new gem, ABC iview is currently streaming children's series that you'll love as much as your students do.

We all enjoy engaging with stories that mirror our own experiences of the world - whether on the page or screen. These five children's series allow teachers to explore loved Australian stories through both printed and visual texts.

With the end of the school year fast approaching, many teachers are seeking resources that help students process the transition to a new year level or school. ACTF content will help students learn about the new environments, relationships, routines and expectations of their next step in schooling.

Kickstart classroom conversations about disability and inclusion with the DisRupted series.

New release and classic ACTF series are now available to Northern Territory educators through the Department of Education's new eLearn site.

Rocky & Me follows the story of Stella, an 11-year old girl living with cerebral palsy. When Stella gets her first wheelchair, she also gains freedom and independence. Year 5 and 6 teachers, examine the film's themes with our free curriculum-mapped resource.

In a virtual ceremony held last month, children's series Hardball won the 2020 International Emmy Award for best ‘Kids: Live-Action' series. The latest in a long list of awards, this prize reaffirms what Australian primary students and teacher already know: it's a ripper of a show.

Learn about Indigenous culture, history and languages with these ACTF-supported series.

Our age-appropriate content is perfect for text analysis in Drama and Media Arts. But did you know we also have series and resources related to Dance, Music and Visual Arts?

Primary students joining our Are You Tougher Than Your Ancestors? Q&A Webinar on 12 November will learn how the series was made, and its representations of people and places from Australia's past.
