Hi, I'm Martin with your Newsround update. | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
Coming up: wildfires eat up hundreds of miles of forest in the US. | :00:00. | :00:08. | |
And out of this world - the school where you learn about space. | :00:09. | :00:18. | |
First - what would you change in the world by the time you're grown up? | :00:19. | :00:22. | |
30 primary school children from across Wales have written postcards | :00:23. | :00:24. | |
about their hopes for the future, to world leaders who arrive in Newport | :00:25. | :00:27. | |
for the NATO summit - that's a big meeting of some of the world's most | :00:28. | :00:31. | |
powerful people. The messages from nine and ten-year-olds will be given | :00:32. | :00:34. | |
to Prime Minister David Cameron and US President Barack Obama. | :00:35. | :00:40. | |
When I grow up, I hope people will not waste money and make sure there | :00:41. | :00:44. | |
is food and water for children across the world. | :00:45. | :00:50. | |
When I grow up, I want all children to be able to go to school because | :00:51. | :00:54. | |
everyone should have equal rights, even if they are a boy or a girl, or | :00:55. | :00:57. | |
And tonight we'll have a special report on US President Obama's visit | :00:58. | :01:06. | |
to a school in Wales. And you can let us know on the Newsround website | :01:07. | :01:10. | |
what you'd change in the world if you could talk to world leaders. | :01:11. | :01:16. | |
Wildfires are continuing to rage in Northern California in the | :01:17. | :01:19. | |
US,putting hundreds of people and animals at risk. Many have been | :01:20. | :01:22. | |
moved out of their homes to stay safe. | :01:23. | :01:31. | |
The fire spread as the wind whipped it up. Mile after mile, the flames | :01:32. | :01:38. | |
eight up the trees. They have already destroyed over 100 miles of | :01:39. | :01:44. | |
land. Helicopters, carrying huge bowls of water, flew over at these | :01:45. | :01:49. | |
milk, dropping hundreds of gallons. They are trying to protect over 750 | :01:50. | :01:56. | |
homes at risk. People living in some of the homes have been forced to | :01:57. | :02:00. | |
evacuate to escape the fire. So far, no one has been injured. But the | :02:01. | :02:06. | |
fire is inching closer. It started in August when lightning struck. | :02:07. | :02:07. | |
Firefighters believe If you've ever dreamed of being an | :02:08. | :02:17. | |
astronaut floating high above the Earth at the International Space | :02:18. | :02:20. | |
Station - the UK's very first space school opened this week. It's | :02:21. | :02:22. | |
designed to give pupils the best chance of getting a job to do with | :02:23. | :02:25. | |
space. It's in Banbury in Oxfordshire. BBC reporter Helen Catt | :02:26. | :02:28. | |
sent us this special report. the fire a rocket, blasting off to | :02:29. | :02:37. | |
learn new things about space. What if you learnt about it every day at | :02:38. | :02:42. | |
school? This is something not many people get to experience. I love | :02:43. | :02:49. | |
learning about new things. I think it is the fact that space is the | :02:50. | :02:55. | |
final frontier. It is like we are the first people, kind of two learn | :02:56. | :03:03. | |
about it. There is no home work but the children have to go to school | :03:04. | :03:08. | |
for longer. From 830 in the morning to 530 at night. There is an | :03:09. | :03:13. | |
assembly. Some of these teenagers could one day be rocket scientists. | :03:14. | :03:17. | |
The headmaster says he hopes others will start companies. They have | :03:18. | :03:22. | |
video channels, sponsorship from you Tube. We want to harness that idea | :03:23. | :03:29. | |
and dumb people have fantastic ideas. These pupils are designing a | :03:30. | :03:36. | |
class logo. Maybe one day someone will wear one for real. | :03:37. | :03:37. | |
Andy Murray took a gruelling three hours and thirty three minute | :03:38. | :03:40. | |
beating from Novak Djokovic - losing in four sets in the quarter finals | :03:41. | :03:44. | |
of the US Open tennis in the past few hours. He fought back time after | :03:45. | :03:47. | |
time - despite problems with his back - but in the end was overcome | :03:48. | :03:50. | |
Next - it's been a another successful summer for Great | :03:51. | :03:55. | |
Britain's paralympic champion Jonnie Peacock. Jonnie sprinted to victory | :03:56. | :03:57. | |
to win 100 metre gold at the European Championships last month in | :03:58. | :04:00. | |
Swansea. He can add it to his growing collection of golds from the | :04:01. | :04:03. | |
Paralympics and the World Champs. And he's here now to tell us how to | :04:04. | :04:07. | |
be the best. Great to have you with us, Jonnie. | :04:08. | :04:18. | |
Were you born like this? The last six years of my life have been | :04:19. | :04:28. | |
dedicated to buy tix, so it doesn't come luckily. You have work hard. | :04:29. | :04:35. | |
People might not know but you run with one leg. Can you give us an | :04:36. | :04:39. | |
idea of the challenges you have to overcome to run with one leg? I have | :04:40. | :04:46. | |
one prostatic leg and one real leg. One is not quite symmetrical. So, it | :04:47. | :04:53. | |
is like trying to control that and make it as symmetrical as possible. | :04:54. | :04:58. | |
Did it take you a while to get used to it? Yes. It took a while to start | :04:59. | :05:05. | |
to get to somewhere I was happy with in running. How did you get involved | :05:06. | :05:11. | |
in sprinting? I got to try out so many different Paralympic sports a | :05:12. | :05:15. | |
few years ago and from there I got set up with an athletics coach and | :05:16. | :05:19. | |
things moved from there. Who inspired you to take up sport? David | :05:20. | :05:25. | |
Beckham. I was football mad as a kid. I wanted to be him. What advice | :05:26. | :05:33. | |
would you give to kids wanting to get involved in sport? Go down to | :05:34. | :05:38. | |
your local sports club. There are school sports and so many things you | :05:39. | :05:42. | |
can do. Find something that you enjoy. Give it a go, you never know. | :05:43. | :05:48. | |
I wasn't sure about athletics but I tried it and I loved it. I could be | :05:49. | :05:54. | |
seeing you at a future event. Thank you. We're back in half an hour. | :05:55. | :05:58. | |
Goodbye. | :05:59. | :06:00. |
