Hi, you're watching Newsround with Leah.

Here's what's coming up in the next few minutes.

The race to save the cuckoos, and the award ceremony just for cats.

You would have noticed that it still feels pretty warm.

The 19th of July - yesterday - was the hottest day of 2016 so far

Some places recorded temperatures of 33.5 Celsius.

Lots of people made the most of the sunshine

but there were delays to some train services

And over on Newsround online we're chatting about the weather too.

Isabel said, I have a fan on a chair and a cold flannel on my head. Harry

said... Next to the award

ceremony just for cats! Houdini here is up for a prize

after he helped his owner Harri You might have heard of the brave

dogs that helps rescue people Or the horses who help the police

when they are out on patrol. But watch out, there's

a new hero in town. He might look like an ordinary

moggy, but to Harri, Houdini helps me

on a day-to-day basis. When I get horribly bullied

at school, Houdini normally Houdini is one of 15 finalists

in the competition to find He was nominated for the award

because he helped Harri get When I touch Houdini,

it makes me feel happy. Also in the running for the award

is Mr Miffy who helped And Blue helped Lily deal

with her brother's illness. So good luck to all

the cats taking part, and To the US now and Donald Trump has

been confirmed as Republican Party's Trump is one of America's most

famous billionaires and It's looking like he'll go head

in the elections in November. There's loads more on this

for all you need to know. Britain's lost more than 70%

of its cuckoos in the last 25 years but tiny tracking devices fitted

has revealed that cuckoos have two migration routes,

with one that appears to be They hope the new information

will help their survival. Now get ready to venture back

into the Bronze Age, because Hayley's been finding out

all about an incredible discovery and the everyday life of people

living thousands of years ago. Welcome to the site that has

changed what we know Under this tent is a snapshot

of the world 3,000 years ago. On this farm in Cambridgeshire,

archaeologists are unearthing what is thought to be the best

preserved Bronze Age home ever It is that fine grained detail

of a world, that we were dealing with crumbs before, now

we have the sense that Archaelogists have been digging

you for ten months and have discovered that five wooden houses

on stilts stood above a river. But it is thought that they

were destroyed by fire, which made their homes fall

into the water, preserving them in great detail,

allowing experts to uncover huge range of amazing objects, showing

what people were eating and even You can see how the food

was made and it is still From sampling it, we can start

to think what was in there, barley and beet and nettles,

that kind of thing. This is a bronze bit of bling,

and overelaborate sort of brooch, I suppose.

On a cape or something like that. The dig is nearly finished

but what archaeologists have Cycling now and Britain's Mark

Cavendish has pulled out of the Tour de France,

saying he wants to focus on this

summer's Olympic Games. He's already won four stages

on this year's Tour, He hasn't ever won a medal

at an Olympic games and said training for the two

competitions had been tough. And Great Britain have named

their Olympic rugby sevens squads. Glasgow Warriors centre

Mark Bennett, from the 15-a-side game to be

picked for the men's side. by England World Cup

winner Emily Scarratt. The Rio games will mark the first

time rugby sevens has appeared Growing up, I had aspirations

to play for England, You'd always watch the Olympics

and think, that looks amazing, and when it was announced a few

years ago, that kind of dream, that, of the possibility

of a coming of reality. So, to be stood here today,

wearing the actual gear and travelling next week,

it's a little bit bonkers, That's all from me, Newsround's
