The former AFL player took to Instagram to share a cryptic post about her new role – but fans were quick to pick up on which show she was referring to!
In the photo, Moana sat on the ABC set with Big Ted and Jemima on her lap.

Australian television staple Matty ‘J’ Johnson of The Bachelor fame also announced his role in Play School’s line up.
The father-of-two took to Instagram earlier this month to share his excitement over landing the gig on ABC Kids.
“Today’s gig might be the best one I’ve ever gotten.. finished product coming soon! #bucketlist” Matt captioned a photo from the Play School set.
Matty J has also joined Play School.

He went one step further by sharing a series of videos from inside his changing room.
“This is my changeroom for this morning. I’m going to be lame, I can’t tell you what I’m filming but I will say its something I’ve wanted to do for a very long time. It’s very sick,” he told the camera.
Matt then hilariously filmed himself chatting to Jemima – an iconic toy regularly featured in the series.
“I just want to say that I’ve worked wit a lot of professionals in the industry and I honestly thought you were one of the best. You did such a good job today,” he told the rag doll.
