Hi, I'm Leah with your Monday evening headlines. First a minute's

silence will be held at the Madrid Masters tennis tournament this

evening in memory of the former British number one Elena Baltacha,

who died of liver cancer yesterday at the age of 30. Andy Murray will

be one of a number of players joining the tribute on the centre

court before the start of the evening session. Stars have been

saying how they felt about Elena online. World Number One Serena

Williams wrote her "love goes out to Elena's family", and current British

Number One Laura Robson tweeted that Elena would be "forever a

team-mate". So why was Baltacha such an important figure in the women's

game? Back in 2002 when she burst onto the

scene, she reached the third round of Wimbledon, that might not seem

like much, but for a British female tennis player that was a real

achievement. After that she really kicked on, winning 11 singles

titles. She reached a career high of 49 in the world. She became an

inspiration for the likes of Laura Robson and Hannah Watson.

Next, to plans to make the six-week summer school holiday shorter. Head

teachers at schools in England are considering spreading the long

summer break more evenly through the year. They say a shorter summer

break could stop teachers getting too tired and could help families

struggling with expensive summer holiday prices. So what do you

reckon? It is better to have lots of three-week holidays. I like to have

a big holiday because I like to spend time with my family. The

summer holiday should not be too long because you get bored or run

out of money. I think it should just be six weeks of relaxation. They

should keep the same thing, one longer holiday, as it gives you

flexibility on where you can go on holiday.

Next up, how do you fancy buying a mountain? Blencathra, a peak in the

north west of England, is up for sale. It's thought it's the first

sale of a mountain in the popular tourist area of the Lake District.

It stands over 800 metres high and has a price tag of nearly ?2

million, but it does come with an ancient title of Lord of the Manor

of Threlkeld! Last up to some seriously cute cubs!

These are very rare white Bengal tiger cubs born at a zoo in Ukraine.

There are three boys and one girl and their keepers say the birth of

four healthy cubs is pretty unusual. It's thought there are only a few

hundred in the world, most of them in captivity, like these little

ones. That's it from me. But if you're

into swapping football stickers ahead of the World Cup join us

tomorrow morning. We'll hear from Ricky, who's been getting top

trading tips from the experts in the city! See you then. Goodbye.
