Hello - I'm Leah and you're live with Newsround this Saturday

:00:00.:00:00.

afternoon. Coming up... Thousands of fans head to Wembley for

:00:07.:00:10.

afternoon. Coming up... Thousands of Premier League playoff. And OD help

:00:11.:00:10.

kicks of Radio 1's Big Weekend. First up to Wembley Stadium, where

:00:11.:00:20.

the game with the biggest financial prize in world football is kicking

:00:21.:00:23.

off in an hour's time. It's the Championship play-off final between

:00:24.:00:29.

Derby County and QPR. The prize - a place in the Premier League.

:00:30.:00:32.

Thousands of fans will be heading to the game and QPR manager Harry

:00:33.:00:35.

Redknapp wants his team back in the top flight.

:00:36.:00:44.

It is a massive game, obviously. We want to try to get back into the

:00:45.:00:48.

Premier League, and there is an awful lot at stake. It is an

:00:49.:00:52.

important game, but it is a game of football, and we want to make sure,

:00:53.:00:55.

if we can, that we win it. This morning the Queen's baton

:00:56.:01:02.

touched down in Wales at Cardiff Airport ahead of the Commonwealth

:01:03.:01:05.

Games this summer. The baton is on a journey travelling around 71 nations

:01:06.:01:08.

and territories across the world. The BBC's Cemlyn Davies sent us this

:01:09.:01:15.

report. The baton arrived here at Cardiff

:01:16.:01:19.

airport just after 11 o'clock this morning. It was all very exciting

:01:20.:01:22.

and there was a really warm welcome for the plane carrying the baton as

:01:23.:01:28.

it landed. Water cannons created an archway for the plane as it moved

:01:29.:01:33.

into position. Of course the baton was coming from Northern Ireland. It

:01:34.:01:37.

has been touring the Commonwealth. It will stay in Wales for seven

:01:38.:01:41.

days, during which time it will be taken up to the summit of Snowdon,

:01:42.:01:44.

the highest mountain in England and Wales. Then it will be taken to

:01:45.:01:48.

England, it will go through England, up into Scotland, and its journey

:01:49.:01:54.

will end at the opening ceremony in Glasgow on the 23rd of July.

:01:55.:01:57.

Firefighters say they have managed to save the Glasgow School of Art

:01:58.:02:01.

and most of what is inside, after a blaze hit the iconic building

:02:02.:02:04.

yesterday. Dozens of firefighters fought for more than four hours to

:02:05.:02:07.

bring it under control. The school is one of Scotland's most important

:02:08.:02:11.

buildings and was where Doctor Who actor Peter Capaldi studied.

:02:12.:02:17.

Sometimes things look worse than they are, so we have no idea.

:02:18.:02:22.

Everybody is safe, that is what counts. It is a beautiful building,

:02:23.:02:25.

it has not been destroyed, so onwards and upwards.

:02:26.:02:29.

Now to Thailand, in South-East Asia, where the army are still in control

:02:30.:02:33.

of running the country There have been months of protests against the

:02:34.:02:36.

government and last week the military kicked politicians out of

:02:37.:02:39.

power. The country's Prime Minister, along with dozen of other political

:02:40.:02:40.

figures, are being held. This was the moment a Japanese

:02:41.:02:54.

rocket carrying space equipment blasted off from Japan. On board is

:02:55.:02:57.

a high-resolution satellite which will scan Earth to help scientists

:02:58.:03:03.

understand more about earthquakes, floods and other natural disasters.

:03:04.:03:14.

On the Newsround website, we have been asking you what you are hoping

:03:15.:03:18.

to see from the new Doctor Who series.

:03:19.:03:29.

Thank you so much for all those comments, guys! You'll also find

:03:30.:03:33.

this next story over on the Newsround website, too. Baby

:03:34.:03:36.

Bactrian camels. They are an endangered species, with two humps,

:03:37.:03:39.

and this one lives at Blackpool zoo, because it has been rejected by its

:03:40.:03:48.

mother. She has not been named yet but this little calf is already part

:03:49.:03:52.

of the family at Blackpool zoo. When her mother rejected her, it looked

:03:53.:03:57.

like she might not survive, but staff took over caring for her, and

:03:58.:04:01.

now she is doing well. The mother did not want to persist with it, and

:04:02.:04:07.

kept kicking the calf away, so it was our turn to decide to give her

:04:08.:04:12.

artificial milk, and how is her with a severed mother. Role of the sorry

:04:13.:04:18.

but mother is really important. This little one has to learn how to

:04:19.:04:21.

behave like a camel, but for the moment, she prefers humans. She

:04:22.:04:25.

behave like a camel, but for the to be fed five times a day. Staff

:04:26.:04:29.

have to come back to feed her at 11 o'clock at night. Like all newborn

:04:30.:04:33.

babies, she has to be weighed. The real test is to see how she is

:04:34.:04:39.

doing. All is fine. As she gets older, to about three months or so,

:04:40.:04:43.

we will start introducing some solid feed, then we will wean her off the

:04:44.:04:49.

milk and moron to the solid food. Hopefully the rest is history, as

:04:50.:04:50.

they say. Bactrian Hopefully the rest is history, as

:04:51.:04:56.

endangered, less than 1000 remain in the wild. At least these little

:04:57.:05:00.

calves are doing well. Sticking with animals and a webcam

:05:01.:05:03.

has been installed at one of China's most important panda sanctuaries so

:05:04.:05:07.

fans can check out what their up to. Pandas usually sleep for up to 16

:05:08.:05:11.

hours a day, and the rest of their time mainly eating bamboo. The

:05:12.:05:14.

sanctuary breeds the endangered giant pandas in captivity and

:05:15.:05:15.

releases them into the wild. These boys have just got the party

:05:16.:05:23.

under way in Glasgow for Radio 1's Big Weekend. The festival kicked off

:05:24.:05:28.

at 1pm and thousands of fans managed to get tickets. As well as One D,

:05:29.:05:32.

:05:33.:05:36.

:05:37.:05:39.

:05:40.:05:44.

website to find out why this 75-year-old man spent 13 years

:05:45.:05:47.

crafting a boring hedge into a giant dragon. And while you're there,

:05:48.:05:51.

check out some of Newsround's other weird and wonderful stories,

:05:52.:05:54.

including the room that's painted entirely in chocolate - tasty!

:05:55.:05:59.
