Hi, I'm Leah and this is Tuesday morning's Newround.

:00:00.:00:00.

The Vikings are back in York, but don't worry!

:00:07.:00:10.

And check out the largest maze in Spain.

:00:11.:00:23.

But first this morning, around 51,000 children

:00:24.:00:25.

able to join the scouts, beavers or cubs.

:00:26.:00:29.

there's a big shortage of volunteers in areas like Surrey,

:00:30.:00:32.

It means waiting lists can't fall unless more adults join

:00:33.:00:35.

They also say those who are signed up currently aren't able

:00:36.:00:39.

We have had a massive increase in the number of adult volunteers in

:00:40.:00:52.

Scouting, which is incredible but we have also got the longest ever

:00:53.:00:56.

waiting list for young people. 51,000 young people are waiting to

:00:57.:01:01.

join Scouting. We need even more adults to take the opportunity of

:01:02.:01:05.

volunteering to give those young people a life changing experience.

:01:06.:01:10.

One of Britain's biggest tourist attractions,

:01:11.:01:11.

the Jorvik Centre in York, has reopened again over a year

:01:12.:01:14.

after it was forced to close because of flooding.

:01:15.:01:16.

We sent Ricky up for the reopening and to find out about it.

:01:17.:01:19.

This is the Jorvik Centre, one of the most popular

:01:20.:01:36.

museums and visitor attractions in the UK.

:01:37.:01:38.

They are finally reopening the doors after severe flooding

:01:39.:01:44.

When those floodwaters came in there was

:01:45.:01:50.

In some parts of the museum it was about one metre high,

:01:51.:01:56.

Most of us were at home enjoying Christmas and we got a call,

:01:57.:02:08.

I got a call to say water was coming in the back door.

:02:09.:02:11.

We called in the conservation team, the collections team, to come and

:02:12.:02:15.

There are 1,000 objects here and we had to get

:02:16.:02:19.

Luckily, everything in the museum was saved.

:02:20.:02:22.

Some of the items in here are priceless.

:02:23.:02:24.

A lot of hard work, a lot of people involved.

:02:25.:02:31.

We decided early on we wanted to do something different.

:02:32.:02:34.

Schoolkids have been coming to this museum for more

:02:35.:02:36.

Because it is a really cool place and a lot could have been damaged.

:02:37.:02:50.

It was amazing how civilised we were then.

:02:51.:02:54.

It really brought the Viking period to life

:02:55.:02:59.

and there were lots of different things that were really interesting.

:03:00.:03:04.

This team have worked hard to protect the museum from future

:03:05.:03:06.

flooding so people can continue to see what the Vikings did

:03:07.:03:09.

In sport, Crystal Palace boosted their chances of staying

:03:10.:03:18.

after beating Arsenal three-nil.

:03:19.:03:22.

Arsenal's poor form puts more pressure on manager Arsene Wenger,

:03:23.:03:27.

who hasn't confirmed whether he is signing a new contract

:03:28.:03:29.

For now, he's staying tight-lipped about his future at the club.

:03:30.:03:38.

Tonight I am not in the mood to speak about that. Wind you think you

:03:39.:03:49.

will be...? I think at the moment it is about paying more respect to the

:03:50.:03:52.

fact that we had a disappointing result and focus on that and not

:03:53.:03:56.

find as well excuses that are not excuses.

:03:57.:03:59.

The first ever cargo train from the UK to China

:04:00.:04:02.

On an epic 7,500-mile journey over 18 days.

:04:03.:04:12.

It took loads of things to sell, like fizzy drinks and medicines.

:04:13.:04:14.

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

:04:15.:04:18.

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

:04:19.:04:21.

towards the Channel Tunnel, meaning it

:04:22.:04:22.

After resurfacing in France you will travel on through

:04:23.:04:26.

If you have a sweet tooth, you might expect it to be

:04:27.:04:29.

filled with fancy chocolate, but instead you will see a lot of...

:04:30.:04:32.

After cruising through Germany, next is Poland.

:04:33.:04:38.

It is one of nine countries in the European Union that

:04:39.:04:40.

Make sure you take some Polish coins with you

:04:41.:04:44.

If temperatures drop and it snows, it might be worth

:04:45.:04:51.

picking up a traditional Russian hat with ear flaps to keep warm.

:04:52.:04:57.

Kazakhstan is made up of a lot of flat desert,

:04:58.:05:03.

That is where Major Tim Peake and his crew launched to get

:05:04.:05:09.

to the ISS and landed safely back on Earth.

:05:10.:05:13.

China is famous for tea, The Great Wall and making lots of things

:05:14.:05:16.

Train bosses say the 7,500-mile trip to the

:05:17.:05:21.

Chinese city by train is faster than by sea and cheaper than by air.

:05:22.:05:25.

And finally, we see a lot of a-mazing things here

:05:26.:05:28.

This is the largest maze in Spain - its made from 4,000 trees,

:05:29.:05:41.

is over five kilometres long and it'll take you about an hour

:05:42.:05:44.

Go online to find out why this month's full moon is called

:05:45.:05:48.

That's all we've got time for this morning,

:05:49.:05:51.

Newsround's back this afternoon at 4:20.

:05:52.:05:57.

Have a great day. I will see you tomorrow. Goodbye.
