While Seven has threatened not to continue with Children’s Drama productions, New Zealand series Mystic is currently filming in Auckland.
The 13×30’ series, based on best-selling author Stacey Gregg’s Pony Club Secrets, will screen in Australia on Seven and add towards Children’s Quotas.
The show is set in the fictional Kauri Point in New Zealand. New girl Issie Brown (Macey Chipping) has just moved to the small town from London with her mother Amanda (Laura Patch) and is struggling to fit in. An encounter with a wild pony Blaze and a stallion named Mystic stirs up a new-found love of horses and leads her to friendship with a bunch of horse-crazy teens.
But when an industrial development threatens the community, the teens band together to find a way to save Kauri Point from disaster.
The cast includes Phil Brown, Jacqueline Joe, Kirk Torrance, Cathy Downes and Jonny Brugh.
British actors Macey Chipping (Holby City, Vampire Academy) and Laura Patch (After Life, Bad Mother) have also joined the cast.

It is not right that NZ show are eligible to meet quotas in Australia
If we’re going to make NZ show eligible we may as well annex NZ but that might lead to war and our record of declaring war by ourselves as evidenced by the Great Emu War shows we’re not the best at that.
