Hey, everyone, I'm Leah with your Saturday Newsround.

0:00:030:00:05

Coming up today: It's back.

0:00:050:00:15

We've got all the goss from last night's Strictly Come Dancing.

0:00:180:00:21

Triathlon superstars the Brownlee brothers tell us how

0:00:210:00:23

they helped each other as kids.

0:00:230:00:23

And the cute lion cub on display at a zoo in Peru.

0:00:240:00:29

First to the news that the Labour party has voted to keep

0:00:340:00:39

Jeremy Corbyn as its leader.

0:00:390:00:40

The results of a big vote were announced around midday today.

0:00:400:00:43

Here's political reporter Adam Fleming with more.

0:01:150:01:17

The war in Syria is continuing with fighting,

0:01:170:01:19

making life for people there very difficult.

0:01:190:01:22

A year ago we told you about Nujeen, she's from Syria but was sent

0:01:220:01:25

by her parents to safety in Germany.

0:01:250:01:27

Her journey was made extra tricky because

0:01:270:01:29

she uses a wheelchair.

0:01:290:01:32

Now, a year on, Nujeen's talking about her new life

0:01:320:01:34

and her hopes for peace in Syria.

0:01:340:01:38

It's a journey for a new life.

0:01:380:01:39

This was Nujeen back in 2015.

0:01:390:01:41

16 years old and travelling from Syria,

0:01:410:01:42

through Europe and towards Germany.

0:01:420:01:47

She made the journey with her big sister

0:01:470:01:49

but had to leave her mum and

0:01:490:01:50

dad behind.

0:01:500:01:53

It was a difficult journey and involved travelling by

0:01:530:01:56

boat and waiting at borders of countries to find out whether or not

0:01:560:01:59

she would be allowed to continue her journey to safety.

0:01:590:02:02

Eventually she reached Germany, where her brother

0:02:020:02:04

was already living and has built a new life.

0:02:040:02:07

So how does Nujeen describe herself now?

0:02:070:02:10

The new Nujeen is just like any other person.

0:02:100:02:15

She wakes up early, she goes to school,

0:02:150:02:21

she is a hard-working pupil, I hope!

0:02:210:02:27

She speak German.

0:02:270:02:28

And she is safe, she's not afraid any more.

0:02:280:02:30

She is safe now but thinks about the fighting that is

0:02:300:02:33

still going on in Syria, comparing the country

0:02:330:02:35

to this sick person who

0:02:350:02:37

she hopes will get better one day.

0:02:370:02:40

I really miss you.

0:02:400:02:41

But don't worry, you're just

0:02:410:02:48

really, really, really sick.

0:02:480:02:50

But I'm sure you're going to get better and when you do I'll

0:02:500:02:53

be right by your side.

0:02:530:02:56

And when the fighting in Syria does stop Nujeen hopes to return.

0:02:560:03:06

They're one of the most famous brothers in the world of sport -

0:03:060:03:09

British triathlon stars, Jonny and Alistair Brownlee.

0:03:090:03:11

They won silver and gold at the Rio Olympics last month

0:03:110:03:17

and hit the headlines this week when Alistair helped his exhausted

0:03:170:03:19

brother Jonny over the line during a race in Mexico.

0:03:190:03:22

Well, the Brownlees have been telling

0:03:220:03:23

Naz their childhood memories

0:03:230:03:24

Tell us about the time you helped each other as kids.

0:03:240:03:27

I think I was always helping him as a kid, being the older

0:03:270:03:30

brother, or trying to, at least.

0:03:300:03:31

I remember one time we were playing in a stream and we were

0:03:310:03:35

building a dam or something and he cut his finger

0:03:350:03:37

open and blood just went

0:03:370:03:38

everywhere in the stream and I held it and took him back

0:03:380:03:41

to mum and dad to take him to

0:03:410:03:43

hospital.

0:03:430:03:44

There it is.

0:03:440:03:45

He's always been looking after me.

0:03:450:03:46

What about you?

0:03:460:03:50

When have you helped him out as a bother?

0:03:500:03:52

I'm younger one so he's supposed to help me out.

0:03:520:03:55

Oh, that one time we cycled to school and

0:03:550:03:57

I had an exam and I swapped bikes with you.

0:03:570:03:59

Oh, yeah.

0:03:590:04:00

We used to cycle to school in the morning and

0:04:000:04:03

one-time Alistair got a puncture and just said

0:04:030:04:05

was, "here's a bike.

0:04:050:04:06

"I've got an exam, fix it."

0:04:060:04:07

It was a GCSE or something.

0:04:070:04:09

You left me.

0:04:090:04:10

I was about an hour late to school.

0:04:100:04:12

So that was it, that's how

0:04:120:04:13

I helped him out.

0:04:130:04:14

Well the success of the Brownlee brothers has inspired lots of people

0:04:140:04:21

to give the triathlon a go - including this lot.

0:04:210:04:23

Over a thousand kids have been taking part in an event

0:04:230:04:26

at Hever Castle in Kent where they had to

0:04:260:04:28

swim, cycle and run.

0:04:280:04:29

So how did they get on?

0:04:290:04:30

It was tough but when you find it tough I just think in my head just

0:04:300:04:34

keep on carrying on.

0:04:340:04:35

It was one of the of those lifelong dreams that I

0:04:350:04:37

almost wanted to and the Brownlees inspired me.

0:04:370:04:40

I'm happy and overwhelmed.

0:04:400:04:41

The one I think I'm going to find best is swimming.

0:04:410:04:43

It makes me think I can get more active

0:04:430:04:45

and get out more.

0:04:450:04:46

Seven million people watched Strictly Come Dancing last night

0:04:460:04:48

as a whole host of new celebrities took to the dance-floor.

0:04:480:04:51

Olympic medallist Greg Rutherford impressed the judges along

0:04:510:04:53

with former Newsround presenter Ore Oduba.

0:04:530:04:54

They're joint leaders on the scoreboard -

0:04:540:04:56

after their first dance!

0:04:560:04:57

The remaining celebs have their go tonight on BBC One

0:04:570:05:00

from 6.30 tonight.

0:05:000:05:03

Next to Alaska in North America, where police got a bit of a surprise

0:05:030:05:04

Next to the new discovery about horses, because scientists

0:05:130:05:15

say they can actually communicate with humans.

0:05:150:05:16

Researchers in Norway trained a group of horses -

0:05:160:05:19

using slices of carrot - to touch different symbols

0:05:190:05:21

when they wanted a rug put on or taken off.

0:05:210:05:23

They say it shows horses are more intelligent than we think,

0:05:230:05:26

making choices and expressing their opinions.

0:05:260:05:29

And because it's Saturday here's some more amazing animals.

0:05:290:05:31

This two month old lion cub has been shown off to the public

0:05:310:05:34

in Peru for the first time.

0:05:340:05:35

She's the first to be born in captivity in 20 years

0:05:350:05:38

in the South American country.

0:05:380:05:39

Zoo keepers say she's healthy, happy and enjoys nothing more

0:05:390:05:42

than play fighting with her mum.

0:05:420:05:49

And if that's not enough go online to find out why a farmer in Cumbria

0:05:490:05:52

has dyed his sheep orange.

0:05:520:05:54

That's all from me.

0:05:540:05:54

Newsround's back tomorrow.

0:05:540:05:55

See you then.
