New Hi-5 Cast


Hi-5

Auditions for Children’s Show


Hi-5 is for today’s media-literate children between 2 to 5 years old. It’s a vibrant mix of stories, investigation, imagination and adventure, inviting children to actively share the excitement of exploring the world through movement, lots of catchy music and laughter.
In this positive and friendly environment, learning is playful, fun and always inclusive.
Hi-5 encourages children to develop their own potential and take a joyous and active part in life.
In every episode, the theme is explored through a range of segments, with each segment focusing on a particular area of learning: verbal, musical, visual, mathematical, physical and social. This structure is part of what makes Hi-5 innovative and unique: the range of segments acknowledges the fact that children are different, with different styles of learning. They can respond to the programme and explore ideas through whichever ‘mode’ suits them best.

Songs and music integrate all the different areas, with a focus of the show being the Song of the Week. This introduces the weekly theme and is played at the start and finish of each episode.The programme is based on extensive educational research and uncompromising production standards ensure that the show is child-centred from script to screen.
The creative team are: Jared Lim (Company Chairman), Julie Greene (Executive Producer) with the Musical Supervisor TBA.
