| What is the Koala Active Kids Club? |
| The Koala Kids club is open to all children and adolescents who wish to learn about how to stay healthy by eating well, being physically active and having an active mind. |

| What levels of membership are available? |
| One can join the club by simply registering on-line through the KOALA website with the help of a parent who will give us their permission for you to join and a registered email address. We do not need any other details from you. Upon registration we will email you an electronic membership card. Becoming a member will not cost you any money at all. Membership is entirely free. |
| We will keep you updated with a monthly KOALA email newsletter and hot news updates about any KOALA "Eat Well Be Active" activities and events that you may wish to participate in. Though the KOALA program and Club are presently only in Brisbane, you can still join as a member and receive email updates. |
