Good morning.

0:00:110:00:14

It's Monday 23rd May and this is your live

0:00:140:00:16

Newsround update with me, Ricky.

0:00:160:00:19

First today, a museum is opening an inflatable version of itself,

0:00:190:00:19

so more children can experience a taste of history and

0:00:220:00:25

the wonders of the world. I've been finding out more.

0:00:250:00:29

This is not a bouncy castle, it is a museum

0:00:320:00:35

and it is about to start a tour of schools all over

0:00:350:00:38

Greater Manchester.

0:00:380:00:40

Today, it is being set up in a school hall in Longsight.

0:00:400:00:45

Some of the kids in this school have never even been to a museum before

0:00:450:00:49

so, today is a really special day. Let's get them in.

0:00:490:00:52

Come on, guys, in you come.

0:00:520:00:56

The theme of this inflatable museum is ancient Egypt and the children

0:01:040:01:08

are allowed to get really close to some of the artefacts on display.

0:01:080:01:11

Like these, how cool are they?

0:01:110:01:15

I've never been to a museum.

0:01:150:01:18

It looks like a real building but it is like, cushiony.

0:01:180:01:22

It is really cool because we are the first people to ever

0:01:220:01:24

have it in our hall.

0:01:240:01:27

It's really big and I really like it.

0:01:270:01:29

They all come from ancient Egypt.

0:01:290:01:36

And although most museums are free, some of these kids told me

0:01:360:01:39

it is getting there which costs quite a lot of money.

0:01:390:01:41

You have a lot of people in your family and you don't

0:01:410:01:44

have enough money to get the tickets for everyone.

0:01:440:01:46

Sometimes, you might see a museum and it looks very scary

0:01:460:01:50

because it is a big, posh building and you might feel

0:01:500:01:52

that is not somewhere I want to go, that is not somewhere I belong.

0:01:520:01:56

And that seems to be a bit of an issue, that people aren't

0:01:560:01:59

confident to just cross the boundaries and go

0:01:590:02:04

into these wonderful places.

0:02:040:02:06

In terms of getting this inflated, that is about five minutes

0:02:060:02:09

actually so once you have got it rolled out, once you have got

0:02:090:02:12

the fans in and the fans on, it is about five minutes.

0:02:120:02:16

So it is a pretty spectacular sight .

0:02:160:02:18

After the exhibit is over, it is time to let the air out,

0:02:180:02:21

until another school gets to wander inside this inflatable museum.

0:02:210:02:23

Team GB swimmers have won an impressive 22 medals

0:02:230:02:26

at the European Championships in London.

0:02:260:02:29

It's a huge boost for the team ahead of the biggest

0:02:290:02:32

competition in the world, the Olympic Games which begin

0:02:320:02:38

in Rio, Brazil in just a few months' time.

0:02:380:02:40

BBC Sport's Nick Hope sent this for Newsround.

0:02:400:02:43

Hi, Newsround, it is been a brilliant week for the GB team,

0:02:430:02:46

here at the London Aquatic Centre where the swimmers have been taking

0:02:460:02:48

on the fastest in Europe.

0:02:480:02:50

Adam Peaty was Britain's best swimmer.

0:02:500:02:52

The world record holder won

0:02:520:02:54

an amazing four gold medals swimming his favourite

0:02:540:02:56

breaststroke events.

0:02:560:03:00

He is an amazing swimmer, a really brilliant swim from him,

0:03:000:03:02

what a wonderful preparation for Rio, 11 weeks from today.

0:03:020:03:05

It is great to come here and defend all my titles.

0:03:050:03:08

I am in the best shape I have ever been and I feel fitter

0:03:080:03:11

than I have ever been, apart from that last 25

0:03:110:03:14

metres when I felt awful!

0:03:140:03:23

I just think of these guys, the crowd, they

0:03:230:03:25

didn't out of the house for nothing and it is

0:03:250:03:28

a great arena to do it in. Great people around us

0:03:280:03:30

and we are a good team and this chemistry will build into Rio now.

0:03:300:03:34

Others who impressed included fellow breaststroker Ross Murdoch who won

0:03:340:03:36

the gold silver and bronze, while sprinter Fran Halsall

0:03:360:03:38

got five medals including a brilliant relay gold

0:03:380:03:40

on the final night.

0:03:400:03:43

Two of the surprise swims of the week came from GB teenagers.

0:03:430:03:46

18-year-old Kathleen Dawson won bronze in the 100 metre backstroke

0:03:460:03:49

whilst Chloe Tutton, who is 19, also finished third

0:03:490:03:51

in the 100 metre breaststroke final.

0:03:510:03:54

Such a good season for me and it has just been up and up and up and up.

0:03:540:03:58

I keep going up and to finish on a high here,

0:03:580:04:01

it is incredible. I love it.

0:04:010:04:03

The British swimmers will now begin their final training

0:04:030:04:05

preparation for this summer's Rio Olympics in Brazil

0:04:050:04:07

which start in August.

0:04:070:04:09

Having been so successful here in London, they will be

0:04:090:04:11

hoping they will be able to pick up plenty of medals for Team GB.

0:04:110:04:15

England have faced their first warm-up game ahead of

0:04:150:04:17

the European Championships in France next month.

0:04:170:04:19

The team enjoyed a 2-1 win over Turkey.

0:04:190:04:22

Harry Kane scored an early goal, and it was Leicester star

0:04:220:04:25

Jamie Vardy who hit the winner.

0:04:250:04:27

The squad face Australia in their next friendly on Wednesday.

0:04:270:04:30

Manager Roy Hodgson has to name the 23-man squad he'll take

0:04:300:04:32

to the Championships next week.

0:04:320:04:35

A plane powered solely by energy from the sun has

0:04:350:04:38

landed in Ohio in the US.

0:04:380:04:41

It touched down in the home town of The Wright Brothers -

0:04:410:04:44

who were two American's that built the first successful aeroplane

0:04:440:04:47

more than 100 years ago.

0:04:470:04:49

The pilots on board the Solar Impulse 2 are hoping

0:04:490:04:52

they can fly around the globe without a drop of fuel.

0:04:520:04:55

That's all from me, Newsround's back in half an hour.
