Hello. We are live after five and you're watching Newsround. Ore and

:00:20.:00:24.

Hayley with you today. We have a creepy Crawley programme for you.

:00:24.:00:29.

On the way, beekeeping at school? Better than maths? And I had been

:00:29.:00:34.

finding out why we are about to be invaded by spiders. But first,

:00:35.:00:38.

dozens of people at a travellers' camp at Essex have won a last-

:00:38.:00:42.

minute decision to delay their addiction. For a decade, Dale Farm

:00:43.:00:47.

has been home for hundreds of people living there illegally. The

:00:47.:00:50.

local council had planned to clear the legal part of the site today

:00:50.:00:53.

but there was not much progress because protesters were blocking

:00:53.:00:57.

the way. Now the travellers will have another chance to argue their

:00:57.:01:01.

case in court on Friday. I went down this afternoon and there is a

:01:01.:01:07.

bit of tension in the air force up this is Dale Farm, the largest

:01:07.:01:10.

unofficial travellers' site in the UK. Even though they call

:01:10.:01:13.

themselves travellers, many of the people here say this is their

:01:13.:01:17.

permanent home. After a ten-year tug-of-war between them and the

:01:17.:01:22.

council, they are finally being told to leave. As far as we can go,

:01:22.:01:28.

this is the front of the site. can get an idea of how big this is,

:01:28.:01:32.

because of the amount of media better here. The activists are

:01:32.:01:36.

showing their support for the family's inside. The atmosphere is

:01:36.:01:41.

calm, but that might not be the case for much longer. -- the

:01:41.:01:45.

families inside. Some of the land is protected countryside and the

:01:45.:01:49.

travellers did not have permission to build on it. The council say

:01:49.:01:52.

that 51 of these homes were built illegally and the family's living

:01:52.:01:56.

there now have to go. Many of these children have grown up here and

:01:56.:01:59.

some of them go to the local school. The thought of leaving his pretty

:01:59.:02:09.
:02:09.:02:10.

scary. I had no sleep last night. If I had to move, I would have no

:02:10.:02:17.

education or schooling. My friends would be gone. It would be hard to

:02:17.:02:21.

make new friends. The council say they have tried everything to find

:02:21.:02:26.

a peaceful solution. They say they have to treat the travellers the

:02:26.:02:31.

same as everyone else and everyone has to obey the law. They have

:02:31.:02:34.

offered houses to some of the travellers and say they could move

:02:34.:02:37.

to private caravan parks if they would like. The people living here

:02:38.:02:42.

say this is their home and they are prepared to fight for it. News of

:02:42.:02:46.

an amazing medical achievement. Doctors have successfully separated

:02:47.:02:51.

twin goals born joined at the head. Rital and Ritag from the Sudan

:02:51.:02:54.

could not see each other before the operation but now they're getting

:02:54.:03:01.

to know each other after surgeons managed to separate them.

:03:01.:03:06.

summer is pretty much over. The nights are drawing in. It might

:03:06.:03:09.

mean you are spending more time indoors. And you will not be alone

:03:09.:03:16.

because so are these. Spiders. We can expect to see a lot more of

:03:16.:03:20.

them this autumn. I had been finding out why, getting up close

:03:20.:03:27.

and personal with some of the furry guys here at Newsround Towers.

:03:27.:03:30.

is the time of year again will we get to meet our eight-legged

:03:30.:03:34.

friends. This year, expect to see even more of them. It is all down

:03:34.:03:39.

to the British weather, warm spring and wet summer mean that these guys

:03:40.:03:45.

have been breeding like crazy. Here are three of the most common. First

:03:45.:03:50.

up, the common house spider. Most likely to be seen scuttling across

:03:50.:03:56.

the floor. Next, the daddylonglegs, lurking in the corner. Andy orb web

:03:56.:04:00.

spider, hanging around on washing lines and windows frames. Why are

:04:00.:04:05.

they coming in to our homes? In the Amateur at this time of the year,

:04:05.:04:12.

so we have adult males looking for adult females. What is the best way

:04:12.:04:18.

to get rid of spiders? The classic jam-jar and paper trek. I put my

:04:18.:04:27.

glass over the top. Have I got 10? -- have I got it in? They have it.

:04:27.:04:31.

It could be a good time to spot them, love them or loathe them.

:04:31.:04:36.

Remember, they are probably just a little bit lonely.

:04:36.:04:40.

Nice. Spiders are all well and good, but can they make honey? I don't

:04:40.:04:45.

think so. And can you have special lessons on them at school? Can you?

:04:45.:04:53.

I don't know, but I know that you can with these. At the school in

:04:53.:04:58.

London, children have taken up beekeeping. We do the normal

:04:59.:05:02.

subjects like maths and English, but we also have a special theme to

:05:02.:05:08.

our subjects, which is beekeeping. I have been in the beekeeping club

:05:08.:05:13.

for two years. I think that these are pretty amazing. They gather

:05:13.:05:19.

together to work as a team and make honey. We wear special since so

:05:19.:05:25.

that if they try to get through the tiny holes, they cannot stay in us.

:05:25.:05:30.

The honey is used by the Cookery Club. My favourite bit about

:05:30.:05:36.

beekeeping is extracting the honey. You can see the honey coming out of

:05:36.:05:40.

the cones. Beekeeping is good because it helps to communicate

:05:40.:05:45.

with the class. We have found that many of the children of find it

:05:45.:05:48.

difficult and challenging at school come along and find it relaxing

:05:48.:05:52.

working with the bees. It has improved their behaviour. What is

:05:53.:05:57.

your favourite for and about beekeeping? My favourite thing is

:05:57.:06:01.

getting to spend more time with the animals in the garden. They give us

:06:01.:06:05.

honey and you know they are from the govern -- from the garden. It

:06:05.:06:09.

is organic and nice. I like these because without them we would not

:06:09.:06:16.

have flowers. This is the empty frames that we put into the hive.

:06:16.:06:24.

And this is what the honey bees have made. You can see all their

:06:24.:06:29.

honey underneath the wax. The honey is really tasty. It is so tasty,

:06:29.:06:33.

there is a waiting list of people who want to buy it. I think

:06:33.:06:40.

beekeeping is a good idea for schools. Good luck. This is Jian,

:06:40.:06:46.

reporting for Newsround. And here is a pot of honey! Of the good

:06:46.:06:52.

stuff. Thank you very much Jian. Who needs a waiting list when we

:06:52.:06:56.

can get it for free. That is good. Have you ever heard the phrase, a

:06:57.:07:01.

bad day at the office? I reckon that definitely applies to

:07:01.:07:06.

yesterday's football match between Man United and Chelsea. United won

:07:06.:07:11.

3-1 but the game was more memorable for Mrs than the goals. Wayne

:07:11.:07:16.

Rooney had a shocker with that penalty. But he would not have felt

:07:16.:07:19.

that for long because later in the game, this happened. Fernando
