0:00:02 > 0:00:04Hello, I'm Jenny, you are live with CBBC.

0:00:04 > 0:00:06This is Newsround and here's what's coming up:

0:00:06 > 0:00:11The bikers taking on the Utah Mountains.

0:00:11 > 0:00:18And how computer games are bringing Max and his friends together.

0:00:24 > 0:00:27OK, let's start with a quick Premier League round up.

0:00:27 > 0:00:35Chelsea beat current champions, Leicester, 3-0, at Stamford Bridge.

0:00:35 > 0:00:38While Manchester City missed two penalties to draw with Everton 1-1

0:00:38 > 0:00:40at the Etihad Stadium.

0:00:40 > 0:00:42And Hull's new head coach Mike Phelan had a disappointing

0:00:42 > 0:00:49match as the Tigers were thrashed 6-1 by Bournemouth.

0:00:49 > 0:00:53Cerebral Palsy is a disorder that affects people in different ways.

0:00:53 > 0:00:5512-year-old Max, who lives in Australia, is one of them

0:00:55 > 0:00:58but thanks to some new technology, he and his classmates have found

0:00:58 > 0:01:04new ways of having fun together.

0:01:04 > 0:01:05Meet Max.

0:01:05 > 0:01:07He loves school and hanging out with his mates.

0:01:07 > 0:01:11Max has trouble speaking because he has cerebral palsy,

0:01:11 > 0:01:13a condition that means his brain has trouble communicating

0:01:13 > 0:01:15with his muscles.

0:01:15 > 0:01:17Where is Mr Jessett?

0:01:17 > 0:01:21But recently a piece of technology called Compass has meant Max can now

0:01:21 > 0:01:24communicate by himself.

0:01:24 > 0:01:28Compass is great and I can communicate independently.

0:01:28 > 0:01:30What's more, it's helped him get closer to his classmates

0:01:30 > 0:01:37because they've been able to make games that he can play on it.

0:01:37 > 0:01:39That's it, where the red dot is.

0:01:39 > 0:01:40Well done.

0:01:40 > 0:01:43Our teacher said that we should make a game for Max and then it kind

0:01:43 > 0:01:44of just went from there.

0:01:44 > 0:01:48We all thought of our own ideas and I went with the maze and one

0:01:48 > 0:01:51of my other friends, he went with a car racing game.

0:01:51 > 0:01:54They use coding and programmes like this to create all

0:01:54 > 0:01:56the different parts of the game.

0:01:56 > 0:01:59These games, he smiles a lot when he plays them because he really

0:01:59 > 0:02:03enjoys being able to play games with the eye gaze instead of just

0:02:03 > 0:02:08watching someone else play them.

0:02:08 > 0:02:11All right, Max, the point of this game is to help you strengthen your

0:02:11 > 0:02:13eye gaze for getting around the track.

0:02:13 > 0:02:16Thanks to the games, Max has come away with new friends.

0:02:16 > 0:02:18When I first met Max, I didn't really know how

0:02:18 > 0:02:19to interact with him

0:02:19 > 0:02:22but then when I started making this, I interacted a lot more

0:02:22 > 0:02:26with him and now me and Max have a good friendship now.

0:02:26 > 0:02:31They also entered the games they designed into a technology

0:02:31 > 0:02:33competition and came a brilliant second place.

0:02:33 > 0:02:36But they say they're just glad Max has a new way to have

0:02:36 > 0:02:41fun with his friends.

0:02:41 > 0:02:43Finally, how about this for a mountain biking course?

0:02:43 > 0:02:45Bikers took to the Utah Mountains in the United States

0:02:45 > 0:02:48in the 11th running of the Red Bull Rampage event.

0:02:48 > 0:02:55The winner was Brandon Semenuk from Canada who flew into first

0:02:55 > 0:02:57That's all from me, Newsround's back just after 12.

0:02:57 > 0:03:01Bye.
