Hello. I'm Hayley, live on CBBC this Friday afternoon.

Keep watching, because we've got loads coming your way.

British astronaut Tim Peake prepares for his mission into space.

And children in West Africa tell us about life without Ebola.

Next month history will be made when the first British astronaut,

Tim Peake, goes to the International Space Station for a whole

six months! Today, Tim gave his final interviews in the UK before he

starts his last bit of training. Jenny was there.

I'm at the Science Museum in London, where everyone is super excited

because Tim Peake is just behind me and giving his last interviews in

Everyone is here to meet the man in the room next to me. Tim Peake is

giving his last interviews in the UK. The only fear I have is

forgetting something. I am in transit between Houston and Russia

and I am racking my brain to see if I have forgotten something. I am

just frightened of forgetting something. It is a testament to the

thousands of people involved. His mission is a massive deal

because he'll be the first ever UK astronaut to live and work

at the ISS and the first British Once there, Ken will be carrying out

experiments, testing out new technologies. But a big part of his

mission is to get you guys excited about science and space. I'm

excited. It is his first mission. I thought it was really fascinating to

see a real astronaut going into space. When they eat food,

everything is just flying around. You mac would like to go into space.

It is a beautiful and amazing place. He leaves on the 15th of December,

but before that, he'll head to the He has been in an intense training

programme to become an astronaut. They are looking at all the

experiments he will do on the space station. He will do on the space

station. He'll is practising for those. They put him in quarantine.

They cut him off from everyone else before he goes to the space

station. So you keep the space station pure and there is no one to

snotty out there. And I'll be joining Tim in Moscow

in Russia next week for Newsround. I want

your questions to take with me. So head over to the Newsround

website to send me It's been more than a year

since the first clinic was set up in West Africa to help people suffering

from the deadly virus called Ebola. Lots of countries

and charities have been working to Now one of the worst affected

countries, called Sierra Leone, The BBC's Anna Foster

sent us this report. From October 2013, the worst

outbreak of Ebola in history infected more than 28,000 people

across Nigeria, Liberia, Guinea Thousands of people lost their lives

and many more became very ill. Children have been unable to go to

school, to stop the virus spreading further, and many have lost parents,

relatives and friends. Medical teams from around

the world have been working hard to On Saturday,

it'll be six weeks since anybody And that will mean that the outbreak

here in Sierra Leone is over. And the important thing

for the children at school is to make sure that they still do things

like wash their hands So what does an Ebola-free country

mean to the children living here? I feel good because I can go back to

school and now I am feeling good. I am back to school. I am really

excited. It will be business as normal.

It's a huge moment for the country, which has suffered so much over

But although this marks the end of one battle, it will be a long

time before people in Sierra Leone can recover from what's happened.

That's all from me and Newsround for today.
