12/12/2012 Newsround

Afternoon. It's the 12th day of the 12th move in 2012. Special day. We

take you live to the UK premiere of the Hobbit. Save the Rhine know, a

new deal which could stop illegal killings. And we take a look at

your Christmassy pictures. This is First, to the constantly changing

face of the country. As we have been reporting on Newsround this

week, the results of the national census are out and they show a big

increase in the number of people born overseas who living in England

and Wales. Three million more than 2001. One place that's changing

fast is the capital, London, one of the most diversityies in the world.

People have moved from all over the world, including many children.

the first time, it's the only big region where less the half the

residents describe themselves as white and British. Welcome to

London. It's the most diverse place to live in the country. A place,

where for the first time, less than half the people living here

describe themselves as white and British. The census has revealed

that one in three Londoners were born outside of the UK, like place

like Poland, Pakistan and India. If you look around me in this part of

town, it's even more diverse, with almost half the people who live

here born outside of the UK. The buildings say it all. An India,

Italian and Japanese and Turkish restaurant on this street. People

come from all over the world and this means there's a big debate on

all the change. How it affects our public services like hospitals and

schools. All the kids in this classroom were born here in East

London, yet their parents were born elsewhere. Like Bangladesh. Jamaica.

Vietnam. Canada. How does the teacher cope with such a diverse

class? We try very, very hard to celebrate different religions and

cultures. We try to make it very much part of our whole school

calendar and ask the children as much as possible to tell us about

their cultures and share with us what their experiencing at home and

we try to talk about it in school. What is it like for you? I think

it's great and we get to learn about different cultures and how

everyone lives their likes. every time you make friends we

eleven about what their religion is and what they come across and how

we come across. The census happens every ten years and this one has

revealed just how fast the country is changing. It will be interesting

to see how Britain changes over the next few decades.

Next, to a new deal that has been signed between South Africa and

Vietnam to stop rhino poaching. It's thought there are 25,000

rhinos. Illegal killing is a big problem, with poachers selling

rhino horn to countries like Vietnam. Figures show the number of

rhinos killed in South Africa nearly doubled in 2012 to 6 00.

Conservation groups have welcomed the deal, with the two nations

working together. We are joined by the head of animal division at

Knowsley Safari Park. How big a problem is this? It's a big problem

for the Rhine knows, because if this continues at the rate it's

going now, there could be no rhinos in 15 years in the wild. How big a

deal is there? This is a big, big step. It's a good step in a good

correction. There is still a lot of work to be done. The hard thing is

you can't control the prochers. Do you think this will still work?

That should be the next step, to target the poachers and punish them,

because it's not been happening, but at least the countries have

agreed that something should be done. We have also heard about the

biggest-ever seizure of IRAy - 20 tonnes of it in Malaysia. Has there

been a growth in this illegal activity? Yes. The main reason is

it's not only used in traditional medicine, but there's a new fashion

growing in Asia. Rich people like to have some profizz or memorabilia

in -- trophies or memorabilia in their house like a rhino horn. It's

a status symbol. Thank you very much. Next to North Korea, where

world leaders have strongly criticised the Government there for

launch a rocket into space. North Korea, which is one of the most

secretive countries in the world, said the rocket launch was a

peaceful mission, carrying a satellite. Many countries,

including the United States and neighbouring South Korea, think

it's part of North Korean plans to test long-range weapons. Not only

is that against international law, but it has a lot of people worried.

concerned, check out our guide on the website.

It's one of the most talked-about fill pldz of the year and tonight -

- films of the year and the Hobbit fever is coming to London. People

are really excited because it's been directed by Peter Jackson, who

was behind the Lord of the Rings trilogy. We can go live to the

green carpet and speak to Natalie. There's a lot of hype around this

film. It's out on Friday. Will fans be satisfied? I think Hobbit fans

will be satisfied if you are a really big fan of detail and if you

love the fantastic world and magical characters that toll keen

created, but bear in mind the book was 300 pages long add the director

is making three films. The first is three hours long, so there's a lot

of detail. It's taken quite a long time to get to this film. Ten years.

What's the feeling from the Hobbit camp? Are they happy?

Understandably they're incredibly excited. In the past ten years

technology has moved on and if you could remember the original film

there was so much advancement in those. For example, the character

of Gollum, he was used by a compuepers -- computers. He's even

better now ten years on. Also Peter Jackson has experimented with a

brand new technology. You might be able to see it. Some people are not

impressed. Natalie, we are really sorry for the quality of the line

there. We can't hear you. It sounds like she's in New Zealand. We are

really sorry about that. We'll have to try to come back to her at

another time. Thanks very much to everyone who sent in pictures of

their gorgeous Christmas light. They are some of our favourites.

Keep them coming in. Go over to the website. All the details are there

for what you need to do. Get in touch. E-mail the photographs to

the website. Make sure you do an X in the pix. Tell us your name. Next,

to a volcano erupting in Russia. It's been described as looking like

the end of the world, which is a bit worrying. It's in the east of

the country and it's pouring out 1200,000 tonnes of lava. It last

erupted 36 years ago. Emergency services are keeping a watch on the

area and locals are getting ready to leave if they need to.

website is the place to go if you ever want to get up-to-date with

stories like that. No, that's it. We are out of time on this the 12th

of the 12th 2012. I've been banging on this this. Happy birthday if you

are celebrating today like Madeleine from Southampton, who is
