Kangaroo Beach Season 3 now streaming on ABC iview

Screenwest is pleased to announce that Season 3 of animated kids series Kangaroo Beach is now screening daily on ABC and in full on ABC iview.

Kicking off with a 22 minute special episode, the 26-part series sees Pounce, Gemma, Neville, and Frizzy back for another high-energy summer, training as junior lifeguard cadets. This season, they’re joined by Spyke, a daring echidna from the bush who’s ready to shake things up as the newest recruit. From beachside rescues to mountain adventures and expeditions into the wilderness, it’s a non-stop thrill ride at the stunning Kangaroo Beach!

After producing the first two seasons of Kangaroo Beach in NSW, Cheeky Little Media (Ginger & the Vegesaurs, Kazoops) teamed up with WA production company Siamese to co-produce the new season.

Production took place across both states, with a number of Western Australian producers, concept designers, editors, sound designers and voice actors bringing the series to life including:

Siamese’s Francesca Hope served as co-producer.
WA screenwriter Tracey Defty-Rashid wrote episode 17, ‘Spyke’s Splash Bash’.
10-year-old WA actor Blake Stevens joined the main cast as the new voice of kangaroo lifeguard cadet, Pounce, recording dialogue at Perth’s XB Studio.
Post sound and music was completed at Envelope Audio.

Season 3 also has a new forest setting inspired by real-life Western Australian locations, designed by WA artist Shane Devries (100% Wolf).

Since splashing onto screens across Australia in 2020, Kangaroo Beach became a smash hit with its young audience and families, securing itself as the second most-watched ABC Kids series on ABC iview.

New episodes of Kangaroo Beach Season 3 are screening daily on ABC Kids, with all episodes available to stream on ABC iview here.
