0:00:07 > 0:00:10It's Saturday afternoon, you're live with me Ayshah on CBBC
0:00:10 > 0:00:12with all of this coming your way.
0:00:12 > 0:00:13Help to save habitats for hedgehogs and...
0:00:13 > 0:00:18Meet the kangaroo living in an unusual place.
0:00:26 > 0:00:29There's a big game this afternoon in the Six Nations rugby tournament.
0:00:29 > 0:00:30England take on Wales at Twickenham in London,
0:00:30 > 0:00:33and whoever wins today will be on course to be crowned champions.
0:00:33 > 0:00:39Both coaches think their team is going to do well.
0:00:39 > 0:00:42It is the side that is going to be smarter that will win the game.
0:00:42 > 0:00:45There is an old saying, if you are relying just on physical
0:00:45 > 0:00:47advantage to win a game of rugby, you are
0:00:47 > 0:00:48going to come second.
0:00:48 > 0:00:50We know we have to be physical.
0:00:50 > 0:00:53If we can't match them physically, we are not in the game.
0:00:53 > 0:00:56I think our game is in good shape at the moment.
0:00:56 > 0:00:59We've been very pleased with the way that we
0:00:59 > 0:01:01have scrummaged, and particularly that young front row that have
0:01:01 > 0:01:11continued to improve and, hopefully,
0:01:12 > 0:01:18it is an area on Saturday that we can go out and dominate.
0:01:18 > 0:01:20This week we had BBC News School Report Day,
0:01:20 > 0:01:22when school children have been making the news about subjects
0:01:22 > 0:01:24important to them.
0:01:24 > 0:01:27So, if you couldn't see, would you ever think of having
0:01:27 > 0:01:29a bionic eye implanted to help you?
0:01:29 > 0:01:31After a ground-breaking operation was successfully carried out
0:01:31 > 0:01:32earlier this year, BBC school reporter Kelsey,
0:01:32 > 0:01:35who is blind, investigates the impact the technology could have
0:01:35 > 0:01:36on his own life.
0:01:36 > 0:01:37See you later.
0:01:37 > 0:01:38Bye, Kel.
0:01:38 > 0:01:39Bye.
0:01:39 > 0:01:41I am Kelsey and I am totally blind, and
0:01:41 > 0:01:43I'm on my way to school at Watford Boys.
0:01:43 > 0:01:45Back in January, this lady, Rhian Lewis, was implanted
0:01:45 > 0:01:48with a bionic eye and it made me think, if there was technology that
0:01:48 > 0:01:50could help me see, would I want it?
0:01:50 > 0:01:53My school is a mainstream school which means I
0:01:53 > 0:01:56get taught alongside everybody else.
0:01:56 > 0:01:59Do you think it's any different teaching me overall in comparison
0:01:59 > 0:02:04to a sighted student in the class?
0:02:04 > 0:02:07It is different in the sense that you
0:02:07 > 0:02:08have got different needs.
0:02:08 > 0:02:10I have to plan a couple of weeks in advance
0:02:10 > 0:02:13more than I usually would, but it's no different to every
0:02:13 > 0:02:23people having their own individual needs.
0:02:23 > 0:02:24-- every pupil.
0:02:24 > 0:02:25My friends, like Michael and Charlie,
0:02:25 > 0:02:28are important because they treat me like everybody else.
0:02:28 > 0:02:30All this makes me feel no different to any other
0:02:30 > 0:02:31student.
0:02:31 > 0:02:32I am happy being blind.
0:02:32 > 0:02:35Me and my dad have come to the BBC to
0:02:35 > 0:02:36do a radio interview with Professor MacLaren.
0:02:36 > 0:02:39He was the surgeon who carried out the operation on a Rhian,
0:02:39 > 0:02:41who I told you about earlier.
0:02:41 > 0:02:43What's the point in having a little bit of sight restored
0:02:43 > 0:02:44with a bionic eye?
0:02:44 > 0:02:47Someone who's never seen anything before, there would be
0:02:47 > 0:02:49little point in trying to bring some vision back.
0:02:49 > 0:02:52We're talking about people who have lived their lives
0:02:52 > 0:02:57using eye-sight and that has then unfortunately been lost.
0:02:57 > 0:03:00The ability for these patients to be able to see
0:03:00 > 0:03:04the shape of an object in front of them, the position of the window,
0:03:04 > 0:03:07for instance, is very helpful.
0:03:07 > 0:03:09Having spoken to teachers, friends and the professor,
0:03:09 > 0:03:16I have concluded that although this technology has
0:03:16 > 0:03:18obvious advantages for some, it's just not for me.
0:03:18 > 0:03:21Being blind is not negative, it's different.
0:03:21 > 0:03:26American astronaut Scott Kelly has announced his retirement.
0:03:26 > 0:03:29Less than two weeks after returning to Earth, after spending nearly
0:03:29 > 0:03:31a year on board the International Space Station.
0:03:31 > 0:03:36He holds the record for the most amount of time spent in space.
0:03:36 > 0:03:39A new study has found that hedgehogs might soon be extinct in Britain.
0:03:39 > 0:03:41It's thought that the number of hedgehogs decreases
0:03:41 > 0:03:43by 5% each year.
0:03:43 > 0:03:46Hayley's been looking at what one park in London is doing to help
0:03:46 > 0:03:49the prickly animals.
0:03:49 > 0:03:52Hedgehogs are animals that come out at night and like to live in gardens
0:03:52 > 0:03:56and parks where they can find food, shelter and lots of insects.
0:03:56 > 0:03:59But thanks to more roads being built and more gardens being covered over,
0:03:59 > 0:04:04the habitats that hedgehogs need to thrive are disappearing,
0:04:04 > 0:04:06and so, too, are the hedgehogs.
0:04:06 > 0:04:09There are a number of reasons why hedgehogs could be declining.
0:04:09 > 0:04:12There has been an increased use of pesticides.
0:04:12 > 0:04:22People are paving their gardens it is they are easier to maintain,
0:04:23 > 0:04:25but you are losing foraging opportunities for hedgehogs.
0:04:25 > 0:04:30And then because of developments and roads, it is just
0:04:30 > 0:04:31fragmenting the habitats that they need.
0:04:31 > 0:04:34It's thought that over the past 10 years, almost a third
0:04:34 > 0:04:36of all our hedgehogs have dissapeared from Britain.
0:04:36 > 0:04:43And thanks to a recent survey from charity Hedgehog Street,
0:04:43 > 0:04:45we know that they have almost disappeared completely
0:04:45 > 0:04:47from our cities, parks and gardens.
0:04:47 > 0:04:49But there is one park in central London where the hedgehogs
0:04:49 > 0:04:51are surviving, and it's thanks to volunteers and rangers
0:04:51 > 0:04:56who are keeping the park hedgehog-frinedly.
0:04:56 > 0:04:58-- Friendly.
0:04:58 > 0:05:02Every metre or so, we have cut the bar, made a fist sized hole
0:05:02 > 0:05:04for them to get through so they can move
0:05:04 > 0:05:05between the two areas.
0:05:05 > 0:05:08It just expands the amount of habitat they have got.
0:05:08 > 0:05:14Anything that we can do to make them have a better chance of finding food
0:05:14 > 0:05:17resources and each other and places to nest, will hopefully
0:05:17 > 0:05:25in the long-term keep their numbers growing.
0:05:25 > 0:05:29So far, hedgehog numbers in Regents Park are on the up,
0:05:29 > 0:05:32but it's thought that if more building over green land takes place
0:05:32 > 0:05:35that Britain's hedgehogs might be threatened with extinction.
0:05:35 > 0:05:38Before we go take a look at this.
0:05:38 > 0:05:42A baby kangaroo has been adopted by a police station
0:05:42 > 0:05:43in Western Australia.
0:05:43 > 0:05:45Police officers have been looking after the four-month-old
0:05:45 > 0:05:49since its mother died.
0:05:49 > 0:05:51That's all from me and the team today.
0:05:51 > 0:05:52I'll be back with your Sunday
0:05:52 > 0:05:59morning stories just before 10am.
0:05:59 > 0:05:59I'll
0:05:59 > 0:05:59I'll see
0:05:59 > 0:05:59I'll see you
0:05:59 > 0:06:00I'll see you then.
