Hi, guys.

0:00:040:00:04

Jenny here with your Bank Holiday Newsround.

0:00:040:00:06

Loads coming up, including...

0:00:060:00:09

Why everyone is talking about Cristiano Ronaldo?

0:00:090:00:11

And the VR headset giving a boy back his sight.

0:00:110:00:16

The Champions League semi finals start tomorrow night,

0:00:260:00:29

with Real Madrid taking on Atletico Madrid, but there's one

0:00:290:00:31

player everyone's talking about ahead of that match -

0:00:310:00:33

the mighty Cristiano Ronaldo.

0:00:330:00:34

Here's Ricky...

0:00:340:00:40

Cristiano Ronaldo - he's one of the biggest

0:00:400:00:42

threats in football, and there's plenty of reasons why.

0:00:420:00:45

Ronaldo!

0:00:450:00:48

And it's three inside 19 minutes.

0:00:480:00:51

Once a Man United favorite, he now scores his goals

0:00:510:00:54

for Real Madrid, and lots of them!

0:00:540:00:56

He's known for his step-over, stylish goal-scoring and, of course,

0:00:560:00:59

the occasional wink.

0:00:590:01:02

And the Portuguese playmaker has a pretty impressive career.

0:01:020:01:04

He's won three Champions League titles, he won Euro 2016

0:01:040:01:09

with his home country, Portugal, and he's won the Ballon

0:01:090:01:12

d'Or award four times - that's one of the greatest prizes

0:01:120:01:15

for any player.

0:01:150:01:17

Although just don't mention Lionel Messi.

0:01:170:01:19

Maybe in your opinion Messi is better than me,

0:01:190:01:21

but in my mind I'm better than him.

0:01:210:01:23

He's even opened a museum about himself.

0:01:230:01:26

And not forgetting that statue!

0:01:260:01:29

So, love him or loathe him, Cristiano Ronaldo is at

0:01:290:01:31

the top of his game.

0:01:310:01:34

Atletico Madrid, watch out.

0:01:340:01:38

And from one football star to a whole team of them.

0:01:380:01:41

Aysha's got this one.

0:01:410:01:43

Meet the Oxford Bulls.

0:01:430:01:45

This group of boys from Londonderry in Northern Ireland all have

0:01:450:01:48

one thing in common - they love football.

0:01:480:01:53

They also all have Down's syndrome, which is a genetic condition.

0:02:000:02:04

People who have Down's syndrome can have learning difficulties,

0:02:040:02:06

and might look a little bit different to some of their friends,

0:02:060:02:09

but it certainly doesn't stop these boys from enjoying a kickabout

0:02:090:02:12

with their mates.

0:02:120:02:15

It's been a special week for the Oxford Bulls because,

0:02:150:02:17

after training for two years, they've just played their very

0:02:170:02:20

first game against a team called the Sion Sonics.

0:02:200:02:23

At the end of the match, everybody was declared a winner.

0:02:230:02:26

Who will they take on next?

0:02:260:02:27

Well, there has been early talk about opposition from none other

0:02:270:02:30

than the Premier League, but we'll have to wait and see.

0:02:300:02:36

So it might feel like you've only just got back to school

0:02:360:02:40

after Easter, but there have been no uniforms for most of you today,

0:02:400:02:43

because of the bank holiday.

0:02:430:02:48

We've been asking what you've been up to...

0:02:480:02:50

Tess says she's going to Reach Fair in Cambridgeshire,

0:02:500:02:52

where the Mayor opens it by throwing new pennies for children.

0:02:520:02:55

Macy is off to Liverpool World Museum,

0:02:550:02:57

to see the Egyptian artefacts

0:02:570:02:58

she been learning about in school.

0:02:580:02:59

Lucie - who's six - says "Me and my family

0:02:590:03:02

are taking our rescue dog to a dog show!"

0:03:020:03:04

It's a big day out at Drayton Manor with her family,

0:03:040:03:07

for eight year year old Lacey - who's really excited.

0:03:070:03:09

And Ruby from Huddersfield is going shopping

0:03:090:03:12

and for a walk in Blackpool.

0:03:120:03:14

She says she's also looking forward to getting chips!

0:03:140:03:17

Yum!

0:03:170:03:21

Thanks for all your comments, guys.

0:03:210:03:23

Next to the gadget that's helping people with sight problems.

0:03:230:03:25

Watch this.

0:03:250:03:27

Meet Charlie.

0:03:270:03:29

He is eight years old and loves gaming with his brothers.

0:03:290:03:33

Charlie has Stargardt macular dystrophy which means his eyes

0:03:330:03:35

don't work properly.

0:03:350:03:37

He started losing his sight when he was

0:03:370:03:39

four.

0:03:390:03:42

One time when we were driving home, you asked me can you read the

0:03:420:03:45

sign on the back of the van and I couldn't.

0:03:450:03:51

Now these goggles are helping him to see properly, the

0:03:510:03:53

first time.

0:03:530:03:55

It works.

0:03:550:03:58

Are you all right?

0:03:580:04:00

Yeah.

0:04:000:04:02

Are you just really pleased?

0:04:020:04:08

Things far away are fuzzy and small.

0:04:080:04:13

The goggles help Charlie zoom in and magnify what is in front

0:04:130:04:16

of him.

0:04:160:04:18

His school have decided to pay for the goggles to help him in

0:04:180:04:22

class.

0:04:220:04:23

He is able to work at the same pace as the rest of the

0:04:230:04:26

children and he's working at a very fast pace.

0:04:260:04:29

He is lapping up all of the learning we are offering.

0:04:290:04:32

The tech also helps Charlie play against

0:04:320:04:34

his brothers and even beat them at football.

0:04:340:04:36

Yes!

0:04:360:04:42

That's all from the team today, don't forget to check out the rest

0:04:420:04:45

of the day's stories online - including a brand new picture

0:04:450:04:48

of Princess Charlotte.

0:04:480:04:49

I'll be back with the latest news at 7.40am tomorrow morning.
