Welcome to Newsround this Monday afternoon.

:00:11.:00:15.

First, the police officer who died in the Westminster attack last month

:00:16.:00:18.

is being remembered today at his funeral.

:00:19.:00:22.

PC Keith Palmer was among those killed by an attacker

:00:23.:00:25.

Today, thousands of police officers from across the country stood

:00:26.:00:29.

in silence as his coffin was driven through London to

:00:30.:00:33.

Southwark Cathedral, where the service took place.

:00:34.:00:37.

For more on what happened in the Westminster attack,

:00:38.:00:41.

go to Newsround online where you can also find advice on what to do

:00:42.:00:44.

if you find anything in the news upsets you.

:00:45.:00:49.

Moving on, two-thirds of the Great Barrier Reef

:00:50.:00:51.

in Australia has now been devastated by severe coral bleaching,

:00:52.:00:53.

A new survey of the reef shows that the latest damage is mainly

:00:54.:00:59.

Last year, the northern parts were badly hit.

:01:00.:01:03.

Have you ever wondered how coral becomes bleached? Well, did you know

:01:04.:01:18.

that it is actually an animal, so it can't make its own food like plants

:01:19.:01:23.

do. Because of that, it has formed a special friendship with a tiny

:01:24.:01:28.

planned, which is a type of algae. They live on the coral and make

:01:29.:01:33.

around 90% of the food that it needs to live. As well as giving them

:01:34.:01:36.

their bright and jazzy colours. French of goals! However, if the sea

:01:37.:01:43.

temperature gets too high or low, or there is pollution, it can cause the

:01:44.:01:46.

algae to get stressed out and they leave. This turns it white or

:01:47.:01:52.

bleached, and leaves it pretty hungry and vulnerable to diseases.

:01:53.:01:56.

If the water temperature returns back to normal, the coral can

:01:57.:02:01.

recover. But this can take many years and, recently, bleaching has

:02:02.:02:05.

been happening more often, giving coral less time to recover.

:02:06.:02:08.

Back here, the Harry Potter and the Cursed Child play has won

:02:09.:02:11.

a record-breaking nine Olivier Awards - they're

:02:12.:02:13.

As well as winning Best New Play, Jamie Parker won Best Actor

:02:14.:02:17.

for playing Harry, while Noma Dumezweni got

:02:18.:02:19.

the Best Supporting Actress award for playing Hermoine.

:02:20.:02:24.

This is an extraordinary piece of theatre, but it's still small,

:02:25.:02:27.

I do feel from what people are saying, it's like, "Oh, gosh,

:02:28.:02:34.

I didn't know it was possible that theatre could do that."

:02:35.:02:36.

Next to a train that could give Hogwarts Express

:02:37.:02:42.

This is the first ever cargo train from the UK to China.

:02:43.:02:47.

The service departed today, taking things to sell,

:02:48.:02:49.

like fizzy drinks and medicines on an epic 7,500

:02:50.:02:51.

But what would you see - and need - if you took the trip?

:02:52.:03:01.

As the train pulls out of its base in Essex, it will travel

:03:02.:03:04.

through towards the Channel Tunnel, which means you'll

:03:05.:03:07.

After resurfacing in France, you will travel on to Belgium.

:03:08.:03:11.

If you've got a sweet tooth, you might expect it to be filled

:03:12.:03:15.

But instead, you'll see lots of exciting...

:03:16.:03:17.

After cruising through Germany, next up is Poland.

:03:18.:03:23.

It's one of the nine countries in the European Union

:03:24.:03:26.

Better make sure you take some Polish zlotys with

:03:27.:03:29.

Quickly swing through Belarus to Russia.

:03:30.:03:42.

If temperatures dip and it snows, it might be wise to pick up a ushanka,

:03:43.:03:45.

a traditional Russian hat with earflaps to keep warm.

:03:46.:03:47.

Kazakhstan is made up of lots of flat deserts,

:03:48.:03:50.

It's where Major Tim Peake and his fellow crew launched to get

:03:51.:03:54.

to the ISS and where he landed safely back on Earth.

:03:55.:03:57.

It's famed for tea, the Great Wall and for making lots of things such

:03:58.:04:01.

The train bosses say the 7500 mile trip to the city of Yiwu via train

:04:02.:04:07.

is faster than by sea and cheaper than by air.

:04:08.:04:10.

This next story is not for those who are afraid of heights.

:04:11.:04:18.

But take a look at this glass-bottomed pool in Houston

:04:19.:04:20.

in the US, which sits 150 metres above a busy street.

:04:21.:04:24.

Swimmers can step out on to the glass platform

:04:25.:04:26.

Well, if you don't like that, here's a less scary way to stay cool.

:04:27.:04:33.

Check out these lucky dogs cooling down with an ice cream.

:04:34.:04:35.

A shop in Mexico designed it especially for dogs -

:04:36.:04:38.

who can't eat the normal stuff - but it's safe for humans too.

:04:39.:04:45.

And just before we go, head online and check out our quiz

:04:46.:04:48.

to see if you've got what it takes to be a Newsround presenter.

:04:49.:04:51.

It's not as easy as it looks, you know.

:04:52.:04:53.

We're back tomorrow morning at 7:40.

:04:54.:05:00.
