Richy here with some great stories this Saturday.

:00:00.:00:00.

The Cameron Laing robot that changes colour to blend in and the dog that

:00:00.:00:19.

is giving children the confidence to read. -- Chameleon robot.

:00:20.:00:29.

First, a 16-strong young British team is hoping for lots of medals

:00:30.:00:32.

at the second Youth Winter Olympics in Lillehammer.

:00:33.:00:36.

The opening ceremony last night marked the start of 10 days

:00:37.:00:39.

17-year-old athlete George Johnston carried the union flag for Team GB.

:00:40.:00:48.

They're here in Norway to compete in sports as diverse as

:00:49.:00:53.

alpine skiing, curling and the ice hockey skills challenge.

:00:54.:00:56.

One of the names to watch over the course of the next ten days

:00:57.:01:00.

He's 17 and takes part in the one-person mono-bob.

:01:01.:01:05.

Being nominated as the flag bearer by fellow athletes is a real big

:01:06.:01:09.

deal and it's really special to me and I will probably end up

:01:10.:01:15.

treasuring it for the rest of my life.

:01:16.:01:17.

Johnson is one of GB's real medal hopes here in Lillehammer.

:01:18.:01:27.

But medal success is only really part of what these

:01:28.:01:29.

It's hoped that the young people will take with them valuable

:01:30.:01:33.

experience that they can perhaps take to a senior Winter Games

:01:34.:01:36.

Next, this drone and helicopter footage shows the devastation

:01:37.:01:39.

of forest land in Tasmania from huge fires.

:01:40.:01:41.

They were started by lightning strikes

:01:42.:01:43.

and they've been burning for over a month.

:01:44.:01:45.

They show thousand-year-old trees that have been destroyed.

:01:46.:01:47.

Next, you've been getting in touch with us all week about internet

:01:48.:01:49.

safety and whether or not you feel safe when you use your

:01:50.:01:52.

In a survey carried out for Newsround, more than one in five

:01:53.:01:56.

10 to 12-year-olds who use social media said they'd been trolled

:01:57.:01:59.

You've told us bullying is something you're really worried about.

:02:00.:02:03.

So here are our top tips on staying safe online.

:02:04.:02:10.

Most people you meet online just want to chat or game.

:02:11.:02:12.

But there are people out there who lie about who they are

:02:13.:02:17.

and what they want, so it's really important

:02:18.:02:19.

Be really careful with any photos or videos that you share,

:02:20.:02:26.

particularly if they are a bit embarrassing.

:02:27.:02:31.

If you wouldn't want your grandmother or your teachers to see

:02:32.:02:33.

Be really careful what you chat about.

:02:34.:02:37.

No matter how long you have been talking to someone,

:02:38.:02:40.

you really cannot know who they are or what they want,

:02:41.:02:42.

So don't share personal stuff, like your phone number,

:02:43.:02:45.

where you go to school or where you live.

:02:46.:02:49.

Most social networks and apps you use will have privacy settings

:02:50.:02:55.

that enable you to choose what you share and who you share it with.

:02:56.:02:58.

Make sure you only share personal stuff with friends that

:02:59.:03:01.

If anyone puts you under pressure to do anything you don't want to do,

:03:02.:03:09.

or feel uncomfortable with, it is OK to say no.

:03:10.:03:12.

Stop the conversation and go and talk to an adult that you trust.

:03:13.:03:15.

Maybe someone in your family or someone at school.

:03:16.:03:17.

You won't be in trouble and they will be able to help.

:03:18.:03:22.

And, on our website, there is lots of advice and help

:03:23.:03:25.

on what to do if you are being bullied online,

:03:26.:03:27.

This dog is helping give children the confidence to read

:03:28.:03:33.

Fernie can understand short words written on flash cards and studies

:03:34.:03:37.

show that a school dog can calm the environment

:03:38.:03:40.

The teacher says kids read better when they're relaxed.

:03:41.:03:48.

He listens without any judgment, so there isn't an adult telling them

:03:49.:03:51.

they've got it wrong, it's just about the children reading

:03:52.:03:53.

The dog makes no judgment at all and children can see,

:03:54.:03:57.

if the dog can read the flash cards, then they can do it too,

:03:58.:04:00.

It's really amazing that he can read with you.

:04:01.:04:09.

Radio 1 DJ Greg James has raised 750,000

:04:10.:04:20.

after he completed his Gregathlon challenge for Sport Relief.

:04:21.:04:25.

He finished five triathlons in five days in five cities.

:04:26.:04:30.

Ending in Norwich, he thanked everyone who supported him over

:04:31.:04:32.

It's just been the most ludicrous week, so thanks

:04:33.:04:42.

I wouldn't be able to do it without all of you.

:04:43.:04:49.

This clever robot can change colour depending on its background.

:04:50.:05:03.

It's been developed by a Chinese company.

:05:04.:05:05.

The artificially intelligent chameleon is able to work out

:05:06.:05:07.

what colour it's background is and blend in.

:05:08.:05:11.

Finally, this dog has been described by some people

:05:12.:05:13.

But now Tuna, the five-year-old chihuahua cross, has 1.7 million

:05:14.:05:18.

He had his own signing for a new book about him

:05:19.:05:23.

I think what people love about Tuna is his unconventional qualities.

:05:24.:05:30.

He has a very pronounced overbite and a recessed underjaw.

:05:31.:05:34.

But I also think that his personality comes

:05:35.:05:37.

across as endearing and charming and people

:05:38.:05:39.

not just with his photographs, but also with his personality.

:05:40.:05:50.

We'll be back on your TV screens later on this afternoon.

:05:51.:05:56.
