Chloe Cammeniti, portrayed by Sarah May, is the offspring of Carmella Cammeniti (Natalie Blair) and Oliver Barnes (David Hoflin). Her birth was depicted on-screen on 21 January 2008, arriving six weeks early with initial respiratory complications, though she ultimately stabilized. Following her arrival, Oliver pursued custody rights. On 3 December 2008, Carmella and Chloe departed to reunite with Oliver in Portugal. By March 2011, Chloe reappeared alongside her parents, with the role now assumed by Daisy Zanveld.
Carmella became aware of her pregnancy after ending her relationship with Oliver and initially worried about the potential impact of prescribed antidepressants; however, medical advice confirmed the baby’s health was not at risk. Subsequently, Carmella entered into a relationship with her business associate Marco Silvani (Jesse Rosenfeld), which raised concerns for Oliver regarding his involvement in Chloe’s upbringing. Carmella experienced premature labor necessitating a cesarean delivery; Chloe required immediate care in the neonatal unit due to breathing difficulties. The family’s move to Ramsay Street alongside Marco heightened Oliver’s apprehensions about custody. Following Marco’s death from bushfire injuries, Oliver abandoned his custody efforts and accepted employment elsewhere; Carmella and Chloe joined him several months later. The family returned to Erinsborough in 2011 accompanied by grandmother Rebecca Napier (Jane Hall).

However, when Rebecca defends Paul against harassment accusations, Andrew realizes she still harbors feelings for him. Unable to win her love fully, Andrew decides to leave Erinsborough.
Having been promoted to principal in September 2007, Andrew shows readiness to offer second chances—illustrated when he suspends Ringo Brown for stealing an exam paper after persuasion from Ringo’s brother. He takes part in school staffing decisions, notably appointing Libby Kennedy as head of senior school following Daniel Fitzgerald’s resignation.

Outside of school matters, Andrew’s relationship with Rebecca develops despite interference from her ex-partner Paul Robinson. Paul schemes to sabotage their relationship through manipulation and blackmailing Rebecca into ending it. After a rafting accident during a school trip—blamed on Andrew by Paul—Andrew distances himself from Rebecca.

Later, Matt nearly detains Rebecca following an altercation with Jodie at a football match; however, his focus shifts upon noticing his daughter Donna in attendance. At Charlie's bar, Matt confronts Donna regarding her conduct and her relationship with boyfriend Ringo Brown (Sam Clark). Donna then steals Matt’s keys and takes a police vehicle for a joyride with Ringo but is soon apprehended. She reveals that her strained relationship with Matt is partly due to her resemblance to her unfaithful mother. Despite this explanation, Matt forbids her from seeing Ringo again.
The following day, Donna again takes Matt’s car without permission, accidentally hitting a dog and its owner, Nicola West (Imogen Bailey). With assistance from Ringo, she brings the vehicle to Lucas Fitzgerald (Scott Major). Matt instructs them to keep the incident secret and pressures Lucas into tampering with evidence to conceal the accident. Elle becomes aware of the cover-up and urges Donna to come clean.

Greg Michaels, played by Nick Farnell, entered the storyline on 11 December 2008 as a romantic interest for Stephanie Scully (Carla Bonner). Jackie Brygel of TV Week highlighted that Steph’s success with online dating led her to meet the "tall, soft-spoken" Greg. Their initial connection appeared promising; however, complications arose due to Greg’s concealed marriage to Veronica Olenski.
Steph encountered Greg through an online dating platform and was taken aback to realize they had met previously at TAFE, where Greg had admired her from afar but lacked the courage to approach her. Following their first date and subsequent intimacy, Steph became uneasy upon spotting Greg with Veronica. When confronted, Greg admitted he was still married but claimed they were separated. Despite this revelation, they attempted to maintain their relationship.
Conflict intensified when Veronica froze Steph and Greg’s bank accounts after witnessing a kiss between them. Eventually, Veronica withdrew her objections, but Greg rejected her efforts to reunite. When offered employment in Darwin, Greg invited Steph to accompany him; she chose instead to remain in Erinsborough while keeping their relationship intact.
Later, Greg proposed starting a family with Steph but grew envious of her past with Toadfish Rebecchi (Ryan Moloney) and the play he authored about their relationship. He initiated defamation proceedings against Toadie, which Steph ultimately dropped. His jealousy extended toward Lucas Fitzgerald (Scott Major), leading to confrontations at gatherings. Ultimately, Steph asserted her independence, prompting Greg to end their relationship and depart.

Introduced late in 2008, the siblings were described as "cheeky" and "pesky," essentially becoming "Donna’s worst nightmare."

Robbie welcomed their introduction as it provided additional depth to her character.
Upon arriving in Erinsborough, Simon and Tegan create a disturbance at Harold's Store by behaving rudely toward Elle Robinson (Pippa Black). Initially, Elle ejects them but later allows them to stay after discovering their connection to Donna. When Donna returns from a school trip upset by their presence, she tries to reconnect with them. Tegan explains that their mother sent them to Ramsay Street due to personal problems. She begins to socialize with local residents, including attending Callum Jones's (Morgan Baker) party, where a misunderstanding concerning Callum's amblyopia leads to conflict. Jealousy surfaces following Donna and Ringo Brown's (Sam Clark) breakup and subsequent reconciliation, prompting Tegan to react negatively. In response, Donna arranges a mock chat show aimed at improving sibling relationships.
Their mother, Cassandra Freedman (Tottie Goldsmith), arrives on the scene, and Simon and Tegan move in with her. Tegan helps Cassandra steal dresses from Harold's Store to secure an invitation to Libby Kennedy (Kym Valentine) and Daniel Fitzgerald's (Brett Tucker) wedding. Cassandra modifies Tegan's school uniform to attract male attention, which results in bullying by Kyle Canning (Chris Milligan). After confronting Kyle, Tegan begins resisting her mother's influence. When Cassandra tries to involve Tegan in a plot against Rebecca Napier (Jane Hall) by having her illegally purchase alcohol, Tegan hesitates.
