Good morning, Jenny here with your Monday Newsround.

0:00:110:00:15

First, there's been a serious incident in London overnight.

0:00:150:00:17

Shortly after midnight, a van drove into a crowd

0:00:170:00:19

of worshippers coming out of a mosque in Finsbury Park,

0:00:190:00:21

in north-east London.

0:00:210:00:24

Police are making the area safe, and have closed roads.

0:00:240:00:27

Several people have been taken to hospital, and one

0:00:270:00:31

person has sadly died.

0:00:310:00:32

One man has been arrested.

0:00:320:00:34

As we find out more about what happened,

0:00:340:00:36

you'll be able to get updates at Newsround online,

0:00:360:00:39

and don't forget if you're upset by this story,

0:00:390:00:41

or by anything in the news, there's loads of help

0:00:410:00:44

and advice there too.

0:00:440:00:47

Now, the Tour de France starts in just under two weeks.

0:00:470:00:50

It's one of the toughest bike races in the world,

0:00:500:00:53

and includes cycling up some of the biggest mountains in France.

0:00:530:00:56

But how do you go from riding your bike in the park, to taking on some

0:00:560:01:00

of cycling's biggest challenges?

0:01:000:01:02

Whitney went to meet a brother and sister who've done just that.

0:01:020:01:05

Alfie and Saskia have cycled 300 miles from London to Paris.

0:01:050:01:07

Alfie's climbed Mont Ventoux, the hardest mountain

0:01:070:01:11

of the Tour de France.

0:01:110:01:16

And he's also got to the top of Col du Tourmalet -

0:01:160:01:20

that's 2115 metres high.

0:01:200:01:28

How did you get into cycling and become so good at it?

0:01:330:01:36

My dad did London to Paris in a day.

0:01:360:01:41

It just made me want to do something amazing just like him.

0:01:410:01:45

I'm not actually that good, it's just I'm very determined

0:01:450:01:48

to complete what I've started.

0:01:480:01:50

You can see I'm not the best at this.

0:01:500:01:52

What advice would you give to people who want to be as great as you?

0:01:520:01:56

Try every type of cycling and if you don't like one type,

0:01:560:02:00

try the other until you can find what you like doing.

0:02:000:02:04

It's just good to keep trying.

0:02:040:02:05

Even if you fall over a few times, well, cycling's difficult and you'll

0:02:050:02:08

get used to it eventually.

0:02:080:02:10

Tour de France is coming up.

0:02:100:02:11

Alfie, you've gone up some of the toughest mountains

0:02:110:02:14

that are in the race.

0:02:140:02:15

How did you get good enough to do that?

0:02:150:02:17

It was really, really hard.

0:02:170:02:20

I thought about giving up at parts of it but when I was at the top

0:02:200:02:23

I just knew that it was there and I had to keep on going

0:02:230:02:27

because I was going to do it.

0:02:270:02:33

And are you both looking forward to Tour de France?

0:02:330:02:35

With Alfie having gone up the mountains, it's kind of exciting

0:02:350:02:38

watching the ones he's gone up, like, "Huh, my brother's

0:02:380:02:41

done that already!"

0:02:410:02:42

I have to say, you guys have given me top tips,

0:02:420:02:45

you're making me feel more confident and motivated.

0:02:450:02:47

Shall we go for a ride?

0:02:470:02:48

Yeah, of course.

0:02:480:02:49

I hope that I don't fall.

0:02:490:02:56

Fetch, sit and roll over - they're all things that

0:02:560:02:59

you would teach a dog to do.

0:02:590:03:00

But what if your pooch doesn't understand what you're saying?

0:03:000:03:03

Here's Ricky.

0:03:030:03:04

Stay...

0:03:040:03:05

Stay.

0:03:050:03:06

Meet Caleb, a four-year-old rescue dog like any other,

0:03:060:03:09

apart from one thing - he doesn't understand English.

0:03:090:03:12

Drop it...

0:03:120:03:15

Drop it.

0:03:150:03:17

And although he's a German shepherd, German isn't the language

0:03:170:03:19

he understands, it's Polish.

0:03:190:03:23

Staff here only figured out what the answer was when a man

0:03:230:03:26

who spoke Polish came to take one of the other dogs home.

0:03:260:03:29

As soon as he heard the language, Caleb's ears pricked

0:03:290:03:31

up, and they realised he understood every command.

0:03:310:03:37

He was sitting down, he was lying down, he was giving them a paw,

0:03:370:03:40

he was giving the ball back to us, doing all sorts, and whenever

0:03:400:03:43

we tried we just got absolutely nothing, he was all over the place.

0:03:430:03:47

So now they've started learning Polish.

0:03:470:03:48

"Paw" is "lapa".

0:03:480:03:52

And Caleb has started to understand English,

0:03:520:03:55

which will make finding him a new home much

0:03:550:03:57

easier in the future.

0:03:570:03:58

Maybe even with a family that speaks both languages.

0:03:580:04:08

Sport now, and British tennis number one Jo Konta lost her first

0:04:090:04:12

grass court final on home soil, as she was beaten at

0:04:120:04:14

the Nottingham Open by Donna Vekic.

0:04:140:04:16

The competition was one of Jo Konta's warm-ups before

0:04:160:04:18

Wimbledon, which starts in July.

0:04:180:04:19

Next up, a trip to the hospital can make some people feel a bit nervous.

0:04:190:04:23

Well now a project is hoping to help kids who aren't that keen

0:04:230:04:26

on a visit to the doctors.

0:04:260:04:27

Welcome to teddy bear hospital.

0:04:270:04:32

It's where children here in Croatia get to experience what it's

0:04:320:04:35

like to visit a hospital or be seen by a doctor.

0:04:350:04:40

It's normal to feel a bit nervous before going for a checkup,

0:04:400:04:43

that's why this special project was set up.

0:04:430:04:47

It involves a bit of role-play.

0:04:470:04:50

Medical students are the doctors and children pretend to be

0:04:500:04:52

the parents of their toys, who are the poorly patients.

0:04:520:04:59

TRANSLATION: By playing here, they get the feeling it's some

0:04:590:05:01

kind of game when they visit the doctor, and that's great.

0:05:010:05:05

The teddy bear hospital project started 20 years ago in Sweden,

0:05:050:05:08

and now it's happening all over the world.

0:05:080:05:13

TRANSLATION: This is also good for student doctors,

0:05:130:05:15

so they know what to expect in the real world.

0:05:150:05:18

You get a better idea about what it's like,

0:05:180:05:21

better than studying from books.

0:05:210:05:25

The whole point is to make children feel relaxed when it

0:05:250:05:28

comes to the real thing, and these kids look pretty happy.

0:05:280:05:33

Thanks, Ricky.

0:05:330:05:35

Meet the latest additions to this Siberian tiger family.

0:05:350:05:37

These four cubs are just a month old and were born in a wildlife

0:05:370:05:41

sanctuary in southwest China.

0:05:410:05:42

At the moment, the four cubs haven't been given names,

0:05:420:05:45

so staff can only tell them apart by the different

0:05:450:05:47

stripes on their tails.

0:05:470:05:50

That's all from the team for now.

0:05:500:05:51

Newsround's back at 4.20pm.

0:05:510:05:53

Don't forget to head online for the rest of the day's stories.

0:05:530:05:58

Goodbye.

0:05:580:06:02

There's an Easter egg hunt in Little Roy next

0:06:090:06:11

and Little Roy gets accused of cheating.

0:06:110:06:13

A bit like when you lot said that I'd cheated

0:06:130:06:15

at the CBBC HQ treasure hunt. It is nothing like that.

0:06:150:06:18

You DID cheat on the CBBC HQ treasure hunt.

0:06:180:06:20

What are you on about? Allegedly!
