Show Notes
It’s a clear Autumn day in Melbourne and a perfect day for a walk in the park. The fallen leaves create a colourful carpet under foot as you crunch your way through the park. The birdsong of the bell miner, wattlebirds, pied currawong fills the air. Whilst the waddling black ducks enjoy a swim in the pond.

Today we're visiting Sydney, a busy city that's full of sounds. There's trains, bikes, people and lots of birds. A kookaburra is protecting its eggs. Their call is loud, they're feeling angry. Do you sometimes get angry like this kookaburra? It's okay to feel angry sometimes. What's most important is that we try and understand why we're feeling this way.
Today we're headed to a rocky mountain top. There's lots of snow and eagles gliding around us. A fox picks its way through the rocks, alone and looking for lunch. It can be nice to spend time alone, being happy in our own company.
Today we're visiting a park in London, England. It's doggie hour at the park, a time for dogs to come and play together. There are dogs barking and sniffing, they're so excited to make new doggie friends. How do you make friends? Maybe with a smile, a hello, or a how are you?
Today we're in grasslands in Argentina. Lovely green grass for the farm animals; chickens and cows and horses. Let's see if the animals can play and include each other, despite their differences. Including others helps people feel safe and feel that they belong. How do you find ways to include people?
Today we're visiting a savannah in Tanzania, a country in East Africa. We're by a waterhole, surrounded by lots of animals. A baby zebra accidentally moves away from their mum, getting separated from the herd. Making mistakes is a part of life, it's one of the ways we learn. Baby zebra and Mum find each other. Drifting away can be dangerous, but both will learn from their mistake.
