Growing Cabbage

Okay, my wombok, Chinese Cabbage, bolted (went to flower)... but it says to plant all-year round? I'm in suburb Brisbane. It's only Sept. not even HOT yet? Everything else says it needs to be cooler or it WILL bolt. What should I do? Should I plant more (planning on it, trying to feed a family of 4 with monthly planting) or will they just go to flower during summer? Would planting another type of cabbage do the trick? *sigh* I love Wombok, buying 1/2 head a week, and was so excited for my first harvest, but now what?
