0:00:04 > 0:00:04Hi, guys.

0:00:04 > 0:00:06Jenny here with your Bank Holiday Newsround.

0:00:06 > 0:00:09Loads coming up, including...

0:00:09 > 0:00:11Why everyone is talking about Cristiano Ronaldo?

0:00:11 > 0:00:16And the VR headset giving a boy back his sight.

0:00:26 > 0:00:29The Champions League semi finals start tomorrow night,

0:00:29 > 0:00:31with Real Madrid taking on Atletico Madrid, but there's one

0:00:31 > 0:00:33player everyone's talking about ahead of that match -

0:00:33 > 0:00:34the mighty Cristiano Ronaldo.

0:00:34 > 0:00:40Here's Ricky...

0:00:40 > 0:00:42Cristiano Ronaldo - he's one of the biggest

0:00:42 > 0:00:45threats in football, and there's plenty of reasons why.

0:00:45 > 0:00:48Ronaldo!

0:00:48 > 0:00:51And it's three inside 19 minutes.

0:00:51 > 0:00:54Once a Man United favorite, he now scores his goals

0:00:54 > 0:00:56for Real Madrid, and lots of them!

0:00:56 > 0:00:59He's known for his step-over, stylish goal-scoring and, of course,

0:00:59 > 0:01:02the occasional wink.

0:01:02 > 0:01:04And the Portuguese playmaker has a pretty impressive career.

0:01:04 > 0:01:09He's won three Champions League titles, he won Euro 2016

0:01:09 > 0:01:12with his home country, Portugal, and he's won the Ballon

0:01:12 > 0:01:15d'Or award four times - that's one of the greatest prizes

0:01:15 > 0:01:17for any player.

0:01:17 > 0:01:19Although just don't mention Lionel Messi.

0:01:19 > 0:01:21Maybe in your opinion Messi is better than me,

0:01:21 > 0:01:23but in my mind I'm better than him.

0:01:23 > 0:01:26He's even opened a museum about himself.

0:01:26 > 0:01:29And not forgetting that statue!

0:01:29 > 0:01:31So, love him or loathe him, Cristiano Ronaldo is at

0:01:31 > 0:01:34the top of his game.

0:01:34 > 0:01:38Atletico Madrid, watch out.

0:01:38 > 0:01:41And from one football star to a whole team of them.

0:01:41 > 0:01:43Aysha's got this one.

0:01:43 > 0:01:45Meet the Oxford Bulls.

0:01:45 > 0:01:48This group of boys from Londonderry in Northern Ireland all have

0:01:48 > 0:01:53one thing in common - they love football.

0:02:00 > 0:02:04They also all have Down's syndrome, which is a genetic condition.

0:02:04 > 0:02:06People who have Down's syndrome can have learning difficulties,

0:02:06 > 0:02:09and might look a little bit different to some of their friends,

0:02:09 > 0:02:12but it certainly doesn't stop these boys from enjoying a kickabout

0:02:12 > 0:02:15with their mates.

0:02:15 > 0:02:17It's been a special week for the Oxford Bulls because,

0:02:17 > 0:02:20after training for two years, they've just played their very

0:02:20 > 0:02:23first game against a team called the Sion Sonics.

0:02:23 > 0:02:26At the end of the match, everybody was declared a winner.

0:02:26 > 0:02:27Who will they take on next?

0:02:27 > 0:02:30Well, there has been early talk about opposition from none other

0:02:30 > 0:02:36than the Premier League, but we'll have to wait and see.

0:02:36 > 0:02:40So it might feel like you've only just got back to school

0:02:40 > 0:02:43after Easter, but there have been no uniforms for most of you today,

0:02:43 > 0:02:48because of the bank holiday.

0:02:48 > 0:02:50We've been asking what you've been up to...

0:02:50 > 0:02:52Tess says she's going to Reach Fair in Cambridgeshire,

0:02:52 > 0:02:55where the Mayor opens it by throwing new pennies for children.

0:02:55 > 0:02:57Macy is off to Liverpool World Museum,

0:02:57 > 0:02:58to see the Egyptian artefacts

0:02:58 > 0:02:59she been learning about in school.

0:02:59 > 0:03:02Lucie - who's six - says "Me and my family

0:03:02 > 0:03:04are taking our rescue dog to a dog show!"

0:03:04 > 0:03:07It's a big day out at Drayton Manor with her family,

0:03:07 > 0:03:09for eight year year old Lacey - who's really excited.

0:03:09 > 0:03:12And Ruby from Huddersfield is going shopping

0:03:12 > 0:03:14and for a walk in Blackpool.

0:03:14 > 0:03:17She says she's also looking forward to getting chips!

0:03:17 > 0:03:21Yum!

0:03:21 > 0:03:23Thanks for all your comments, guys.

0:03:23 > 0:03:25Next to the gadget that's helping people with sight problems.

0:03:25 > 0:03:27Watch this.

0:03:27 > 0:03:29Meet Charlie.

0:03:29 > 0:03:33He is eight years old and loves gaming with his brothers.

0:03:33 > 0:03:35Charlie has Stargardt macular dystrophy which means his eyes

0:03:35 > 0:03:37don't work properly.

0:03:37 > 0:03:39He started losing his sight when he was

0:03:39 > 0:03:42four.

0:03:42 > 0:03:45One time when we were driving home, you asked me can you read the

0:03:45 > 0:03:51sign on the back of the van and I couldn't.

0:03:51 > 0:03:53Now these goggles are helping him to see properly, the

0:03:53 > 0:03:55first time.

0:03:55 > 0:03:58It works.

0:03:58 > 0:04:00Are you all right?

0:04:00 > 0:04:02Yeah.

0:04:02 > 0:04:08Are you just really pleased?

0:04:08 > 0:04:13Things far away are fuzzy and small.

0:04:13 > 0:04:16The goggles help Charlie zoom in and magnify what is in front

0:04:16 > 0:04:18of him.

0:04:18 > 0:04:22His school have decided to pay for the goggles to help him in

0:04:22 > 0:04:23class.

0:04:23 > 0:04:26He is able to work at the same pace as the rest of the

0:04:26 > 0:04:29children and he's working at a very fast pace.

0:04:29 > 0:04:32He is lapping up all of the learning we are offering.

0:04:32 > 0:04:34The tech also helps Charlie play against

0:04:34 > 0:04:36his brothers and even beat them at football.

0:04:36 > 0:04:42Yes!

0:04:42 > 0:04:45That's all from the team today, don't forget to check out the rest
