Good morning, I'm Ayshah with your Monday morning Newsround. Coming up: | :00:00. | :00:09. | |
A dinosaur discovered in a school playing field. | :00:10. | :00:16. | |
The spacesuit invented to help astronauts spines. | :00:17. | :00:19. | |
British forces in Southern Afghanistan have now closed all but | :00:20. | :00:23. | |
two of their military bases. Crimea 's parliament is to send an official | :00:24. | :00:26. | |
request to become part of Russia after people in the region voted to | :00:27. | :00:32. | |
become a Acrobat leave the Ukraine. The vote has been called illegal by | :00:33. | :00:37. | |
the government in the Ukrainian capital and by countries like the | :00:38. | :00:41. | |
United States. President Obama says America will never recognise the | :00:42. | :00:47. | |
result of the wrote an world leaders will meet to day to discuss the | :00:48. | :00:53. | |
situation. For lots more information you can head online. British forces | :00:54. | :01:03. | |
in southern Afghanistan have called Acrobat post all but two of their | :01:04. | :01:09. | |
military bases. -- have closed all but two. At the height of the war | :01:10. | :01:13. | |
there were 137 British bases, but now all that's left is Camp Bastion, | :01:14. | :01:16. | |
and an Observation Post nearby. British troops are set to pull out | :01:17. | :01:20. | |
altogether by the end of this year. Next, they roamed the earth for 160 | :01:21. | :01:24. | |
million years, but I bet you'd never think there could be a dinosaur | :01:25. | :01:27. | |
buried beneath your classroom floor. Well for a group of school kids in | :01:28. | :01:30. | |
West Sussex, that's exactly what happened. And now they're starting | :01:31. | :01:33. | |
their own dinosaur dig in the school playground. So we sent Nel to dig | :01:34. | :01:36. | |
around. Imagine the surprise when a | :01:37. | :01:39. | |
chemistry teacher found dinosaur remains on the school site thought | :01:40. | :01:43. | |
to be over 140 million years old. I didn't really realise it was here | :01:44. | :01:50. | |
until I came down in June and were doing a Geo Trail with the students | :01:51. | :01:57. | |
we found a pile of rocks and Frank fossils, that was mind blowing. Why | :01:58. | :02:02. | |
get the kids involved? It is right on our doorstep, you couldn't ask | :02:03. | :02:06. | |
for a better science lab. Once the discovery was made these kids | :02:07. | :02:08. | |
couldn't wait to pick up their hammers and brushes and get digging. | :02:09. | :02:16. | |
Would dinosaurs do you know? T Rex. Have you found it erects? No. -- | :02:17. | :02:27. | |
have you found a T Rex. This is a leaflet is millions of years old. We | :02:28. | :02:32. | |
found some fish scales, dinosaur teeth and bones. It is really call | :02:33. | :02:35. | |
these are hundreds of millions of years old stock and we have | :02:36. | :02:41. | |
uncovered that today. Why is a discovery by the so important? The | :02:42. | :02:45. | |
first dinosaurs were found in a quarry near here. It is a really | :02:46. | :02:50. | |
historically important area. The whole area has been covered up by | :02:51. | :02:54. | |
buildings and towns and cities and unfortunately we cannot really get | :02:55. | :02:57. | |
to them any more, so to find them here at the school is fantastic. It | :02:58. | :03:04. | |
allows us unprecedented view. This is set to continue for a few | :03:05. | :03:07. | |
more months and the kids at the school and the ones in the local | :03:08. | :03:10. | |
community will be getting stuck them in the hope that they will find even | :03:11. | :03:13. | |
more treasures. If you want to find out what to do | :03:14. | :03:17. | |
when you find a fossil and how to clean it, then head on over to the | :03:18. | :03:30. | |
Newsround website. Sports news and last night saw the | :03:31. | :03:33. | |
Sochi 2014 Winter Paralympics come to a close with a spectacular | :03:34. | :03:36. | |
closing ceremony. Britain finished the Games with six medals, the best | :03:37. | :03:40. | |
medal haul since 1984. Four of the medals were won by Jade Etherington, | :03:41. | :03:43. | |
who carried the fag for Great Britain at the ceremony. -- flag. | :03:44. | :03:47. | |

gallery of pics from last night. The title race in the Premier League | :03:54. | :03:57. | |
got very interesting after wins for Arsenal and Liverpool yesterday with | :03:58. | :04:00. | |
both teams now only four points behind leaders Chelsea with a game | :04:01. | :04:03. | |
in hand. Liverpool put three past Man Utd, Steven Gerrard scoring two | :04:04. | :04:06. | |
penalties and missing a third before Luis Suarez sealed the win just | :04:07. | :04:10. | |
before full-time. After the game Liverpool captain, Steven Gerrard | :04:11. | :04:12. | |
sent out this message to his team's rivals. | :04:13. | :04:14. | |
We are in the title race. Before today's game there was a big | :04:15. | :04:17. | |
question hanging over us, other good enough to beat Manchester United and | :04:18. | :04:23. | |
improve and make statement they are genuine title contenders? We are | :04:24. | :04:26. | |
there and we will give it everything we have got. | :04:27. | :04:32. | |
And in Scotland Aberdeen beat Inverness Caledonian Thistle on | :04:33. | :04:35. | |
penalties to win the Scottish League Cup. The trophy is Aberdeen's first | :04:36. | :04:38. | |
piece of silverware in almost 20 years. Santas in London have | :04:39. | :04:47. | |
designed a special space suit to stop spines expanding in space. -- | :04:48. | :04:53. | |
scientists. This can help muscles and nerves. Scientists hope the | :04:54. | :04:57. | |
material can help the astronauts. Usually spent this afternoon. We | :04:58. | :04:59. | |
will see you soon. | :05:00. | :05:01. |
