0:00:05 > 0:00:06Hi, I'm Martin live with Newsround on CBBC.

0:00:06 > 0:00:09All this on the way...

0:00:09 > 0:00:14I investigate the craze for rock painting.

0:00:14 > 0:00:16We check out this home-made Iron Man suit.

0:00:16 > 0:00:20And the dad who made a magical street for his kids.

0:00:29 > 0:00:32First up, football and Northern Ireland are hoping

0:00:32 > 0:00:38to qualify for the World Cup.

0:00:38 > 0:00:39They face Switzerland tonight at Windsor park

0:00:39 > 0:00:42in the first leg of a play-off, with the second leg on Sunday.

0:00:42 > 0:00:45The winners after two games, will play at the tournament

0:00:45 > 0:00:46next summer in Russia.

0:00:46 > 0:00:48Manager Michael O'Neill says he believes his players

0:00:48 > 0:00:53won't waste their opportunity.

0:00:53 > 0:00:57The players have done fantastically so far to get to this point.You

0:00:57 > 0:01:01know, at the end of the day, there's eight countries left in Europe and

0:01:01 > 0:01:07we are the smallest one going into this situation. I see in the squad

0:01:07 > 0:01:11and opportunity that they don't want to waste but equally, I think

0:01:11 > 0:01:15they've done everything so far, I anticipate boldly everything over

0:01:15 > 0:01:18the next two games to make it a reality.

0:01:18 > 0:01:21Next, to a refugee swimmer whose story is so amazing it's now

0:01:21 > 0:01:22being made in to a film.

0:01:22 > 0:01:25Yusra competed as a swimmer at the Rio Olympics last year

0:01:25 > 0:01:30but less than a year before that, she was forced

0:01:30 > 0:01:34to leave her home in Syria because of the war.

0:01:34 > 0:01:38When they were telling me I was leaving to do the Olympics,

0:01:38 > 0:01:42I was so surprised because after only one year,

0:01:42 > 0:01:44I'm a refugee in Germany and I'm going and there

0:01:44 > 0:01:47was a refugee Olympic team, it was incredible.

0:01:47 > 0:01:50She had a great time and took part in the first ever

0:01:50 > 0:01:52Team Refugee but Yusra's

0:01:52 > 0:01:56life hasn't always been this much fun.

0:01:56 > 0:02:01It took her 25 days to travel from Syria to Europe.

0:02:01 > 0:02:06Part of that journey was in a boat and when it

0:02:06 > 0:02:09began to sink, she got into the sea along with her sister and helped

0:02:09 > 0:02:12save 19 others who were on board.

0:02:12 > 0:02:15The hero who's pulling the rope...

0:02:15 > 0:02:18It's OK, I helped the boat and so on, but it was not

0:02:18 > 0:02:25only me or only my sister.

0:02:25 > 0:02:27But you can imagine they told you it was 45 minutes trip

0:02:27 > 0:02:29and you stayed three hours and a half.

0:02:29 > 0:02:31She now lives in Germany and is training

0:02:31 > 0:02:34for the next Olympics which will be in Tokyo in 2020.

0:02:34 > 0:02:36My ambition is just to be an athlete.

0:02:36 > 0:02:40If I am going to start for Germany or for my country or for the refugee

0:02:40 > 0:02:44Olympic team, I would do the best I can and it would be my pleasure.

0:02:44 > 0:02:47Now a film is being made telling her incredible story.

0:02:47 > 0:02:54Let's hope she gets some time out of the pool to watch it.

0:02:54 > 0:02:56Next, to a massive rock group.

0:02:56 > 0:02:57No, not that kind.

0:02:57 > 0:03:00I've been to meet the kids getting out their paintbrushes and heading

0:03:00 > 0:03:02to the bottom of the garden for a new craze.

0:03:02 > 0:03:03Watch this.

0:03:03 > 0:03:09Fidget spinners, JoJo Bows, making slime at home.

0:03:09 > 0:03:12These are just some of the things you guys love.

0:03:12 > 0:03:14But I'm not here to talk about them.

0:03:14 > 0:03:17I've come to this special rock painting club to find out

0:03:17 > 0:03:21why these rocks rock.

0:03:21 > 0:03:24Yes, a new rock trend is sweeping the nation.

0:03:24 > 0:03:27Let's find out how it works and why kids up and down

0:03:27 > 0:03:33the country are doing it.

0:03:33 > 0:03:37So, what you have to do is you paint rocks and then you go

0:03:37 > 0:03:40out and you hide them.

0:03:40 > 0:03:43You take a picture, put it on Facebook and show that you found

0:03:43 > 0:03:46it and then you re-hide it.

0:03:46 > 0:03:49I'm doing it because I like people to get out the house instead

0:03:49 > 0:03:53of being lazy on their electronics.

0:03:53 > 0:03:59You can let your imagination run free and do anything you want.

0:03:59 > 0:04:01Find a rock and start drawing on it.

0:04:01 > 0:04:04I enjoyed doing it because it gets me out of the house.

0:04:04 > 0:04:06Instead of being sat there with your fidget spinner,

0:04:06 > 0:04:09you can go outside and have a hunt with your friends.

0:04:09 > 0:04:13It gets you all together.

0:04:13 > 0:04:15So, we have done our painting.

0:04:15 > 0:04:16Now it's time to hide them.

0:04:16 > 0:04:18Are you guys ready?

0:04:18 > 0:04:19Let's go.

0:04:19 > 0:04:26Let's go.

0:04:26 > 0:04:30So if you are out and about and manage to find a painted rock,

0:04:30 > 0:04:33you can choose to keep it or hide it again for someone else to find.

0:04:33 > 0:04:36So get out there and get painting.

0:04:42 > 0:04:44Next, check out this real-life Iron Man who's been flying

0:04:44 > 0:04:46high across England.

0:04:46 > 0:04:49British inventor Richard Browning set the first world

0:04:49 > 0:04:51speed record for "flying a body-controlled jet

0:04:51 > 0:04:53engine power suit".

0:04:53 > 0:04:58Richard flew his jet suit across a lake in Reading.

0:04:58 > 0:05:00Guinness World Records logged his top speed at just

0:05:00 > 0:05:03over 32 miles per hour.

0:05:03 > 0:05:06Every time you take this equipment out, you never really know how it's

0:05:06 > 0:05:08going to work out.

0:05:08 > 0:05:13It's all very new, there's no rule book, guidebook or manual.

0:05:13 > 0:05:19I'm just delighted we got three really good runs in.

0:05:19 > 0:05:22We took a little bit of a swim on run four but that

0:05:22 > 0:05:23just proves we push the boundaries.

0:05:23 > 0:05:25If you've ever wished you could be part of

0:05:25 > 0:05:28Harry Potter's wizarding world - then this is going to

0:05:28 > 0:05:29make you very jealous.

0:05:29 > 0:05:31American Jon Chambers and his neighbours spent two weeks

0:05:31 > 0:05:33recreating its famous Diagon Alley as a Halloween treat

0:05:33 > 0:05:40for his daughters.

0:05:40 > 0:05:42Since it opened, hundreds of children and adults have entered

0:05:42 > 0:05:44through a magic brick wall and strolled past storefronts

0:05:44 > 0:05:48for Quidditch supplies and potions, just like in the book.

0:05:48 > 0:05:50That is so cool.

0:05:50 > 0:05:53That's all from the morning team but Whitney will be back

0:05:53 > 0:05:54with loads more at 4.20.

0:05:54 > 0:05:59For the rest of the day 's news, head to newsround online. Enjoy your

0:05:59 > 0:06:02day at school. Bye-bye.
