0:00:05 > 0:00:09Afternoon all, Ayshah here with Newsround's top stories.

0:00:09 > 0:00:11The kids who get to ski at school.

0:00:11 > 0:00:14Why the makers of the Peter Rabbit film had to say sorry.

0:00:14 > 0:00:22And the magic of this baby octopus.

0:00:28 > 0:00:31It seems that nowhere in the world is safe from plastic pollution.

0:00:31 > 0:00:33Researchers are concerned after finding that a huge amount

0:00:33 > 0:00:35of plastic waste is now reaching the Arctic.

0:00:35 > 0:00:40Here's Ricky.

0:00:40 > 0:00:43From a distance these beautiful shores on the Arctic coastline

0:00:43 > 0:00:48of Norway look pristine, unspoiled.

0:00:48 > 0:00:53Take a closer look and it's a very different picture.

0:00:53 > 0:00:56The plastic polluting our oceans has now made it to the so far

0:00:56 > 0:01:00relatively untouched Arctic.

0:01:00 > 0:01:04Just last year I think we tipped 30 tonnes.

0:01:04 > 0:01:10Brought in household litter, food wrapping, bottles.

0:01:10 > 0:01:14One of the biggest causes of plastic pollution in the area is fishing.

0:01:14 > 0:01:16Bits of rope and netting can be found everywhere and it's having

0:01:16 > 0:01:23an impact on the local wildlife.

0:01:23 > 0:01:25The rubbish comes from all over Europe, and even

0:01:25 > 0:01:28as far away as America.

0:01:28 > 0:01:31I mean, you can throw things into the ocean in Florida and think

0:01:31 > 0:01:37I am throwing it away and then it might end up here on our shores.

0:01:37 > 0:01:41Bo Eide has made it his mission to pick up as much of the litter

0:01:41 > 0:01:45as he can around these Norwegian fjords.

0:01:45 > 0:01:46What to say?

0:01:46 > 0:01:50It is so obvious what we're doing here is like the tip of the iceberg.

0:01:50 > 0:01:53This is what is readily available.

0:01:53 > 0:01:59I mean, I pick up this little piece of litter and it's gone,

0:01:59 > 0:02:01it won't go out to sea again.

0:02:01 > 0:02:09It helps.

0:02:09 > 0:02:11Now how cool is this - children at this school

0:02:11 > 0:02:13in Worcestershire get to spend their lunch

0:02:13 > 0:02:14hour learning to ski.

0:02:14 > 0:02:17Not many of us get to have that much fun on our break!

0:02:17 > 0:02:20Take a look at this.

0:02:39 > 0:02:42We feel quite lucky because not many schools actually have a ski

0:02:42 > 0:02:46slope to learn how to ski.

0:02:46 > 0:02:48It's really unique to the school and its really fun.

0:02:48 > 0:02:53I wouldn't have tried skiing if the school didn't have ski slope.

0:02:53 > 0:02:54You can come at lunchtime.

0:02:54 > 0:03:01One day I'd really like to compete at the Winter Olympics.

0:03:01 > 0:03:03I like the figure skating because it's beautiful.

0:03:03 > 0:03:06I'm looking forward to watching the half pipe, I love

0:03:06 > 0:03:07all the stunts and tricks.

0:03:07 > 0:03:10I think Team GB are going to win about 30 medals.

0:03:10 > 0:03:11Five gold.

0:03:11 > 0:03:15Eight gold medals.

0:03:15 > 0:03:17Almost 16,000 people are having problems with their flights

0:03:17 > 0:03:19after an unexploded bomb from World War Two was

0:03:19 > 0:03:20found near an airport.

0:03:20 > 0:03:23The 500 kilogram bomb, which is more than 70 years old,

0:03:23 > 0:03:25was discovered by divers in the River Thames in London.

0:03:25 > 0:03:28All flights to and from London City Airport have been

0:03:28 > 0:03:30cancelled or moved to other airports, while specialists begin

0:03:30 > 0:03:36to remove the bomb safely.

0:03:36 > 0:03:39The makers of the new film Peter Rabbit have said sorry

0:03:39 > 0:03:42after some charities and parents weren't happy with a scene involving

0:03:42 > 0:03:47a character with an allergy.

0:03:47 > 0:03:51A scene in the film - not this one - shows Tom McGregor who has

0:03:51 > 0:03:55a blackberry allergy being pelted with the fruit by a gang of bunnies.

0:03:55 > 0:03:58In a joint statement, Sony Pictures and the filmmakers say

0:03:58 > 0:04:01they regret not being more aware and sensitive to the issue of food

0:04:01 > 0:04:08allergies and shouldn't have made a joke of them.

0:04:08 > 0:04:10Now we think this could be a Newsround first.

0:04:28 > 0:04:29We can't!
