Good morning, it's Whitney here
with your Sunday morning Newsround. | 0:00:12 | 0:00:15 | |
First up, we're talking snow! | 0:00:15 | 0:00:21 | |
More is predicted today
across Wales, the Midlands, | 0:00:21 | 0:00:23 | |
northern and eastern England,
with up to ten centimetres | 0:00:23 | 0:00:25 | |
expected on higher ground. | 0:00:25 | 0:00:26 | |
Weather warnings are also in place
for Scotland and Northern Ireland. | 0:00:26 | 0:00:33 | |
It looks like it might be time
to get that sledge out! | 0:00:33 | 0:00:35 | |
And while I'm stuck
in the studio with no snow, | 0:00:35 | 0:00:38 | |
I'd like to see your snow pics. | 0:00:38 | 0:00:40 | |
Head online and send
us your best snow snaps. | 0:00:40 | 0:00:42 | |
Now there was a big shock yesterday
in the Premier League as West Ham, | 0:00:42 | 0:00:45 | |
who are in the relegation zone,
beat last year's | 0:00:45 | 0:00:47 | |
champions Chelsea 1-0. | 0:00:47 | 0:00:49 | |
A lightening-quick start by West Ham
saw them take an early lead | 0:00:49 | 0:00:51 | |
through Marko Arnautovic,
who scored with this | 0:00:51 | 0:00:55 | |
excellent finish after
a beautiful bit of play. | 0:00:55 | 0:00:59 | |
Chelsea had their chances
to equalise but the hammers | 0:00:59 | 0:01:02 | |
held on for a 1-0 win. | 0:01:02 | 0:01:04 | |
More football now, and to a young
footballer with a big dream. | 0:01:04 | 0:01:08 | |
Jessica lives in Liberia
in West Africa, where girls haven't | 0:01:08 | 0:01:12 | |
traditionally played football -
but she's hoping | 0:01:12 | 0:01:14 | |
to help change that. | 0:01:14 | 0:01:20 | |
Hi, my name is Jessica. | 0:01:20 | 0:01:21 | |
Welcome to my home. | 0:01:21 | 0:01:25 | |
Jessica's ten years old. | 0:01:25 | 0:01:27 | |
She lives in West Point, which is
the biggest slum in Liberia. | 0:01:27 | 0:01:32 | |
This is where I started playing
football when I was six years old. | 0:01:32 | 0:01:35 | |
She was spotted by a talent
scout and has spent | 0:01:35 | 0:01:37 | |
the last couple of years
at the Monrovia football academy. | 0:01:37 | 0:01:42 | |
It's the first one in Africa to take
on both boys and girls. | 0:01:42 | 0:01:46 | |
In West Africa, the female football
is not well structured, | 0:01:46 | 0:01:48 | |
but this is what we're trying
to change, to give the girls access | 0:01:48 | 0:01:51 | |
to opportunities out there. | 0:01:51 | 0:01:53 | |
When they're playing good football,
they can have opportunities | 0:01:53 | 0:01:55 | |
of a professional football contract. | 0:01:55 | 0:01:59 | |
I fell in love with football
because I want to be | 0:01:59 | 0:02:03 | |
a good football player,
and I love football very much. | 0:02:03 | 0:02:09 | |
Nearly two thirds of children
in Liberia have never been | 0:02:09 | 0:02:12 | |
to school, so the academy helps
with learning off the pitch, too. | 0:02:12 | 0:02:18 | |
Jessica's had the chance to play
in international games, | 0:02:18 | 0:02:20 | |
and it's her dream to one day be
part of one of Europe's | 0:02:20 | 0:02:24 | |
biggest clubs, Real Madrid. | 0:02:24 | 0:02:27 | |
You go, girl! | 0:02:27 | 0:02:31 | |
Finally, imagine living in a town
where there are more flying | 0:02:31 | 0:02:33 | |
bats around than people. | 0:02:33 | 0:02:37 | |
Well that's actually happening
in a town in Australia. | 0:02:37 | 0:02:39 | |
Charters Towers in Queensland
are currently dealing | 0:02:39 | 0:02:42 | |
with what looks like a bat invasion. | 0:02:42 | 0:02:44 | |
Residents have complained
about the noise levels | 0:02:44 | 0:02:46 | |
and are trying to deal
with the issue by removing trees | 0:02:46 | 0:02:49 | |
and setting up nets. | 0:02:49 | 0:02:52 | |
That's all from me -
we'll be back just after 12pm. | 0:02:52 | 0:02:54 | |
Enjoy the snow if you've got some! | 0:02:54 | 0:02:56 |
