Afternoon everyone.

0:00:050:00:06

Leah here with today's Newsround.

0:00:060:00:07

Coming up:

0:00:070:00:09

The famous whale spotted again after 40 years.

0:00:090:00:15

And, the pillow fights breaking out across the world.

0:00:150:00:20

But first straight to the cricket, because the day of World T20 has

0:00:300:00:33

begun with the West Indies and Australia playing

0:00:330:00:35

for the women's final in Kolkata.

0:00:350:00:38

Australia won the toss and chose to bat first,

0:00:380:00:43

and set a target of 148 for 6.

0:00:430:00:45

The men's final starts at 2.30 this afternoon.

0:00:450:00:48

England take on the West Indies, with both trying to make history

0:00:480:00:51

and become the first team to win the tournament more than once.

0:00:510:00:55

But it's going to be tough, as temperatures are soaring.

0:00:550:00:58

The BBC's Justin Rowlatt is in the Indian city of Kolkata,

0:00:580:01:00

where the final will take place.

0:01:000:01:04

The additional challenge here is the temperature.

0:01:040:01:06

It's getting really hot here.

0:01:060:01:09

The men are coming on later on.

0:01:090:01:11

Hopefully it will be a bit cooler for them.

0:01:110:01:18

Of course the challenge is to win, and they are hoping to beat the West

0:01:180:01:22

Indies.

0:01:220:01:23

The one thing about t20 is it is always exciting.

0:01:230:01:25

Everyone here is expecting a very exciting game despite the fact that,

0:01:250:01:28

sadly, in the view of most Indians, India didn't make it to the final.

0:01:280:01:32

India versus England would have been sensational.

0:01:320:01:37

Away from sport - more than 70 firefighters were battling a blaze

0:01:430:01:46

at a bakery unit in Tottenham in North London last night.

0:01:460:01:48

People living nearby were told to keep their doors

0:01:480:01:51

and windows closed.

0:01:510:01:52

Nobody was injured and the fire was brought under control

0:01:520:01:54

early this morning.

0:01:540:01:55

An investigation has been launched.

0:01:550:01:57

Do you know how to make butter, or where milk comes from?

0:01:580:02:01

Well, children at a school in north London found out all about food

0:02:010:02:04

when a farm came to visit them, as school pupil Tia explains.

0:02:040:02:08

Chickens, scarecrows and a wooden cow.

0:02:090:02:12

Today we're finding out where our food comes from.

0:02:120:02:16

This farm workshop has arrived at school to give us classes

0:02:160:02:20

on planting fruit and veg, discovering how to grow grain

0:02:200:02:23

and what foods they are found in.

0:02:230:02:27

We are finding out how chickens live and how to keep

0:02:270:02:30

them happy, too.

0:02:300:02:32

And a happy chicken equal as happy egg.

0:02:320:02:41

And a happy chicken equals a happy egg.

0:02:470:02:49

All day my school has been taken part in workshops,

0:02:490:02:51

where we have been learning more about what farmers do and what tools

0:02:510:02:54

they use to produce food for us.

0:02:540:02:56

You can even milk a cow.

0:02:560:02:57

OK, it's a wooden one, but you get the idea.

0:02:570:02:59

This all may look very "a-moo-sing" but there's some serious

0:02:590:03:02

learning going on.

0:03:020:03:03

We've come here today to tell you what we do back on our home

0:03:030:03:06

farms in Wales.

0:03:060:03:07

We are very excited to be here to tell you how we produce

0:03:070:03:10

food, which you guys will hopefully eat.

0:03:100:03:12

Why is coming here today helpful to children like me?

0:03:120:03:14

It is important that you learn where it comes from,

0:03:140:03:17

because you need to understand what you're eating.

0:03:170:03:19

And you need to understand the health benefits

0:03:190:03:21

that it can give.

0:03:210:03:23

There's loads to get stuck into.

0:03:230:03:25

This little mill is used to grind grain to make flour.

0:03:250:03:27

One of the workshops these guys are doing is learning how

0:03:270:03:30

to build a scarecrow.

0:03:300:03:34

That's really important for farmers, because if birds come they get

0:03:340:03:37

scared of the scarecrows and it protects their crops

0:03:370:03:39

and all the food that they need to grow.

0:03:390:03:41

Although farming is not something I would want to do myself

0:03:410:03:44

when I grow up, these workshops have definitely taught me about the food

0:03:440:03:48

I eat and where it comes from.

0:03:480:03:58

Which I think is really important for all of us to appreciate.

0:03:580:04:01

And any excuse to hold a baby chick is good for me, even if

0:04:010:04:05

it does make a mess!

0:04:050:04:08

Next, they're found all over the world, but one very special Orca

0:04:110:04:14

has just been rediscovered off the coast of Scotland.

0:04:140:04:16

Take a look.

0:04:160:04:20

This is the moment a rare Orca whale made an appearance

0:04:200:04:23

in Londonderry Northern Ireland in 1977.

0:04:230:04:28

It followed salmon up the river and ended up swimming under

0:04:280:04:31

the bridge into the city, where it was spotted

0:04:310:04:33

and caught on camera.

0:04:330:04:34

It became a bit of a local celebrity and was nicknamed Dopey Dick.

0:04:340:04:37

Now nearly 40 years later he's been spotted again.

0:04:370:04:40

This time as part of a group of Orcas living off

0:04:400:04:43

the coast of Scotland.

0:04:430:04:50

Whales in the group can be identified by looking at their fins.

0:04:500:04:52

Scientists studying the whales have called him Comet.

0:04:520:04:55

But when they looked at the pictures from the '70s they realised

0:04:550:04:58

it was the same whale.

0:04:580:05:01

There are photographs and footage taken which allowed us just recently

0:05:010:05:04

from Facebook to match the pictures to this individual.

0:05:040:05:06

He is well known from our catalogue.

0:05:060:05:07

From our pictures you can tell he was an adult male back then

0:05:070:05:11

and he's still going, so we reckon he's at least 50 years

0:05:110:05:13

old, possibly older.

0:05:130:05:21

So the mystery of the Derry whale has been solved.

0:05:210:05:23

He's been hanging out just across the Irish Sea

0:05:230:05:25

with his friends.

0:05:250:05:28

And finally to quite possibly the biggest pillow fight ever.

0:05:290:05:32

Hundreds of people across the world took part in International Pillow

0:05:320:05:34

Fight Day yesterday.

0:05:340:05:36

The tradition was started by students in Canada 11 years ago

0:05:360:05:38

just for fun!

0:05:380:05:39

But there are strict rules - you're only allowed to use soft

0:05:390:05:42

pillows, so nobody gets hurts.

0:05:420:05:50

And there's loads more pictures of the pillow fights on our website,

0:05:500:05:53

so go and have a look.

0:05:530:05:55

That's all from me.

0:05:550:05:56

Newsround is back right here just before 2 o'clock.
