Specsavers has launched a colourful new Bluey glasses range for children in New Zealand and Australia. The collection became available on Thursday 9 July 2026. It includes four frames inspired by Bluey, the popular animated television show.

The frames come in bright colours, including pink, green and Bluey blue. Every pair features artwork of Bluey, while some designs also include her younger sister, Bingo. They are designed to be light, comfortable and strong enough for everyday adventures.

Specsavers says the playful designs could help children feel happy and confident about wearing glasses. The range was created with BBC Studios and Ludo Studio, the company that makes Bluey. Bluey is completely created, written, animated and finished in Brisbane, Australia.

The new frames are available in three colours, with prices starting from a recommended retail price of $299. Two lucky readers will each win a pair of Bluey frames.

The council has announced a trial bus service for students living in the outer suburbs and nearby rural areas. The service will begin next term and aims to reduce traffic near the college at drop-off time. Many families have welcomed the idea, although some are cautious about whether the timetable will suit after-school activities. The council says the route will be reviewed after six weeks, and feedback from students and parents will help decide if the service should continue. For now, the plan is to start with two buses each morning and one bus after school.
