Good morning.

0:00:030:00:04

I'm Hayley with your Newsround update.

0:00:040:00:06

We've got lots to tell you so keep watching.

0:00:060:00:09

Cats get their own pop music.

0:00:090:00:11

And the painter turning his rubbish bins into art.

0:00:110:00:16

First to a classroom with a difference.

0:00:250:00:28

Pupils at one school in Bradford have been taking part in a special

0:00:280:00:32

experiment to help them keep fit and healthy.

0:00:320:00:36

Ayshah has more.

0:00:360:00:39

Can you spot the difference in this classroom?

0:00:390:00:42

How about now?

0:00:420:00:44

Here in this class, it's all about...standing.

0:00:440:00:49

It's part of an experiment to see if standing throughout the day,

0:00:490:00:53

instead of sitting down, helps improve your health by keeping

0:00:530:00:56

you more active, so how does it work?

0:00:560:00:59

To go up, you push this lever and it goes up.

0:00:590:01:02

To go down, you hold the lever and you push on the top of the desk.

0:01:020:01:06

But you've got a chair here. So how does that work?

0:01:060:01:09

You can choose to sit or stand.

0:01:090:01:10

When you're standing up, you've got to put your chair to one

0:01:100:01:13

side and then you put it to the right side by making

0:01:130:01:16

an L-shape with your elbow and adjusting the height.

0:01:160:01:21

The results of the tests so far have shown students spend less time

0:01:210:01:24

sitting down each day.

0:01:240:01:25

What do these guys think of their standing desks?

0:01:250:01:29

They are more relaxing than when we had the normal desks.

0:01:290:01:33

They are really awesome because you can stand up or down

0:01:330:01:35

on them so you don't have to just sit down all the time

0:01:350:01:39

like ordinary tables.

0:01:390:01:40

I think it's good to stand up because you get exercise and you get

0:01:400:01:43

to move around more.

0:01:430:01:46

Standing up is exercise and sitting down is just boring.

0:01:460:01:50

You just don't do any work.

0:01:500:01:53

This class seem happy with them, but does standing really make that

0:01:530:01:56

much of a difference?

0:01:560:01:58

If you're standing up at your desk you're more likely to become a more

0:01:580:02:04

active adult and stand more when you're a grown up as well,

0:02:040:02:08

and we know that standing as an adult reduces the risk

0:02:080:02:11

of things like type II diabetes, heart disease and of being

0:02:110:02:14

overweight and obese when you're an adult.

0:02:140:02:17

The stand-up sit-down desks are popular with this class

0:02:170:02:20

and researchers hope to bring their idea to other schools

0:02:200:02:23

across the UK.

0:02:230:02:26

Next we're talking about pocket money.

0:02:260:02:28

New research has found that lots of you get it without doing

0:02:280:02:31

anything to earn it.

0:02:310:02:33

Some people think it's a bad thing and pocket money is a good way

0:02:330:02:36

of learning skills for the future.

0:02:360:02:38

So we want to know if you do have to do jobs or chores at home

0:02:380:02:42

to get your allowance?

0:02:420:02:43

Do you think you should have to earn it?

0:02:430:02:46

Let us know what you think on the Newsround website.

0:02:460:02:50

A Roman arcade has been revealed beneath an apartment block

0:02:500:02:52

in Colchester, Essex.

0:02:520:02:56

Experts believe the ancient site is 1,800 years

0:02:560:03:00

old and was at the heart of the once bustling Roman town.

0:03:000:03:04

The walkway included more than 28 archways topped by a grand gateway.

0:03:040:03:09

The ruins will go on show to the public this summer.

0:03:090:03:14

To football now, and West Bromwich Albion have made it

0:03:140:03:16

through to the fifth round of the FA Cup.

0:03:160:03:18

It took penalties to beat League One side Peterborough.

0:03:180:03:20

Goalkeeper Ben Foster saved this from striker Lee Angol

0:03:200:03:23

to win the match.

0:03:230:03:25

West Brom manager Tony Pulis was full of praise for

0:03:250:03:27

the lower league team.

0:03:270:03:30

Smaller teams from the lower leagues pushing Premier League clubs right

0:03:300:03:34

to the limit and they did that today.

0:03:340:03:37

Absolute fantastic.

0:03:370:03:39

Credit to them, to the league they play in, and to

0:03:390:03:41

British football.

0:03:410:03:43

To have this sort of game and to be involved in it,

0:03:430:03:46

yes, it's nerve wracking and it's brilliant that we've gone through,

0:03:460:03:50

but Peterborough should take a lot of credit.

0:03:500:03:54

If you have a cat you might think that music helps them to relax.

0:03:540:03:58

But one musician thinks that cats need their own type

0:03:580:04:00

of music to enjoy.

0:04:000:04:02

David Tie, who plays the cello, has come up with a piece of music

0:04:020:04:06

specifically with our furry friends in mind.

0:04:060:04:11

If we can find a way to communicate and connect with other species

0:04:110:04:14

in the same way, we have a better understanding of them,

0:04:140:04:16

and a better understanding of ourselves and our place

0:04:160:04:26

in that world.

0:04:260:04:27

Now to the artist who uses spray paint to decorate wheelie bins.

0:04:270:04:30

Brett Day from Suffolk works from the bottom of a shed

0:04:300:04:33

and his work has become so popular he's now a big internet sensation

0:04:330:04:36

with his videos like this one being seen by millions.

0:04:360:04:38

His friends nickname him Binsy after famous graffiti artist

0:04:380:04:41

Banksy.

0:04:410:04:43

That's all from me for now.

0:04:430:04:45

Head over to the Newsround website to find out more about Frozen

0:04:450:04:48

the Musical on stage.

0:04:480:04:49

I'll be back with lots more for you at 8.15.

0:04:490:04:52

See you then.
