First, there are a growing number of desperate people who are trying | :00:23. | :00:25. | |
to get to the UK from Calais in northern France. | :00:26. | :00:27. | |
They are migrants, from places like Africa, Syria and Afghanistan, who | :00:28. | :00:30. | |
are trying to escape from problems in their home countries, but aren't | :00:31. | :00:33. | |
Extra security has been brought in to try to stop them jumping | :00:34. | :00:38. | |
This is the French port of Calais, the nearest port to England and that | :00:39. | :00:55. | |
is why it is targeted by migrants, many of them coming from war-torn | :00:56. | :01:00. | |
countries such as Afghanistan and Syria. Many hope to head onto | :01:01. | :01:07. | |

truck. Each day it is thought more migrants | :01:35. | :01:51. | |
will arrive, leaving the authorities with a big challenge to stay in | :01:52. | :01:57. | |

increased their presence, but they say they need more help from the | :02:02. | :02:02. | |

a ceasefire's been agreed to end almost five months of fighting | :02:06. | :02:08. | |
in eastern Ukraine. During peace talks the Ukrainian | :02:09. | :02:10. | |
army came to a deal with The Ukrainian government says it | :02:11. | :02:12. | |

people in Ukraine want to be more closely tied with Europe while | :02:28. | :02:29. | |

learn all types of music. There are 18,000 primary schools | :02:54. | :02:56. | |

yourself. James took an orchestra to a school in Hertfordshire. It made | :03:42. | :03:52. | |
