Hi, I'm Ricky with Newsround on Tuesday morning.

It's going to be bigger than primary school and it takes

But after a while you will get used to it.

Some advice for those of you starting high school.

American President Donald Trump has spoken out against racist violence

in the US after a protester died on Saturday.

The trouble started when white supremacists -

who believe that white people are better than other races -

protested in the town of Charlottesville.

They weren't happy because a statue of one of their heroes

One woman was killed and many others were injured after violence broke

out between the group and anti-racism protestors.

President Trump had been criticised for not being harsh enough

on the extremists in an earlier speech.

Racism is evil, and those who cause violence in its name

with those protests, check the website.

Now, for some of you, the summer holidays are over -

and you're starting high school for the first time.

If you're feeling a bit nervous, no problem -

these guys have a bit of advice for you.

When it's, like, a Friday, don't act excited because the teachers

because that's what I did in the first couple of weeks and it

We walked along through the dark night, which was lit up only

by the fires of people's homes being set alight in the distance.

When we finally reached the train station it was packed with people.

We squashed into an overloaded train heading towards the new border.

During the journey, the train stopped suddenly for a long time.

We were afraid we would get attacked by mobs.

Thankfully, there were soldiers on our train so we were able

But then the attackers managed to separate the last three carriages

When we reach Lahore, we were placed in a refugee camp

with many other people, and lived there for over a year.

I never returned to my home in Rampur.

Next up, I think this panda sums up how I'm feeling this morning...

This giant panda cub was born at a zoo in Japan a few weeks ago.

There's a competition to let the public name the panda.

Zookeepers will reveal the winner in September.
