Hey, I'm Whitney with your Sunday lunchtime Newsround.

0:00:030:00:06

Coming up: It is Sir Mo's last ever UK race on the track.

0:00:060:00:12

And an Olympic style super slide.

0:00:120:00:22

Afternoon, guys.

0:00:240:00:26

Whitney here with your Sunday Newsround.

0:00:260:00:29

Let's start with some quick sports stories this morning.

0:00:290:00:33

Mo Farah will run his last ever UK race on the track later.

0:00:330:00:36

He won gold and silver at the World Championships this

0:00:360:00:39

month, and he'll race in the Birmingham Grund Prix today.

0:00:390:00:41

After this, he will be racing marathons on the roads.

0:00:410:00:46

Manchester United made it eight goals in two games as they beat

0:00:460:00:49

Swansea 4-0 yesterday.

0:00:490:00:52

Pogba, Lukaku, and Marsheyal scored the last three goals

0:00:520:00:55

in just four minutes.

0:00:550:00:57

Today's big match sees Spurs play Chelsea at 4pm.

0:00:570:01:04

And England's cricketers thrashed the West Indies in just three days

0:01:040:01:06

to take a 1-0 Test series lead.

0:01:060:01:08

James Anderson and Stuart Broad led the way as England took

0:01:080:01:11

19 wickets in one day.

0:01:110:01:17

A special service is being held in Barcelona this morning,

0:01:170:01:20

to remember those people affected by the attacks there.

0:01:200:01:24

The King and Queen of Spain joined people from the city at the mass

0:01:240:01:30

at the city's famous Sagrada Familia Cathedral.

0:01:300:01:35

Millions of people around the world are getting excited

0:01:350:01:37

about tomorrow's solar eclipse.

0:01:370:01:38

Parts of America will see a total eclipse -

0:01:380:01:41

that's where the Sun is completely blocked by the Moon.

0:01:410:01:43

And one group of UK scouts is travelling there to get

0:01:430:01:46

the best view possible.

0:01:460:01:50

Meet the Salisbury Scouts.

0:01:500:01:52

They are off on a camping trip, but this year

0:01:520:01:55

it is a little bit special.

0:01:550:02:00

We are going to America to see the Solar Eclipse.

0:02:000:02:03

Yellowstone National Park.

0:02:030:02:04

The boys are on their way, making a mammoth journey

0:02:040:02:06

all the way from the UK to Yellowstone National Park

0:02:060:02:09

in the USA, where they will be able to witness this

0:02:090:02:11

incredible moment first-hand.

0:02:110:02:15

I'm excited for the Solar Eclipse, to see it.

0:02:150:02:17

And to be there in America.

0:02:170:02:19

I'm feeling really excited to go and see it.

0:02:190:02:22

I'm really excited for it.

0:02:220:02:25

It's going to be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

0:02:250:02:29

Now, the summer holiday is ending, and some of you are already

0:02:290:02:32

heading back to school.

0:02:320:02:34

For some people, that means starting High School for the first time.

0:02:340:02:37

It can be a little nerve-wracking, but don't worry - these guys sent us

0:02:370:02:42

some top tips to help you out.

0:02:420:02:48

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

0:02:480:02:50

will most likely keep you later so you'll

0:02:500:02:52

miss your bus or you'll have to stay at school later.

0:02:520:03:00

If you are feeling nervous, you should go and talk to someone

0:03:000:03:04

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

0:03:040:03:06

and it made me feel a lot more confident about school.

0:03:060:03:09

Don't feel stressed.

0:03:090:03:10

It's a big school, it's going to be bigger than primary school,

0:03:100:03:13

and it takes a while to get used to it.

0:03:130:03:18

But after a while you will get used to it.

0:03:180:03:20

Be loud and confident with your answer, instead

0:03:200:03:24

of just being like, oh, is it this?

0:03:240:03:26

Behave, do your homework, do what the teacher asks.

0:03:260:03:28

Try and make as many new friends who don't go

0:03:280:03:31

to your primary as you can.

0:03:310:03:32

On the first day, don't be by yourself.

0:03:320:03:35

Go and find new people, make new friends.

0:03:350:03:37

First impressions for teachers are really important

0:03:370:03:44

because teachers all base how your behaviour is

0:03:440:03:46

off that first impression.

0:03:460:03:50

And you don't have a first impression twice,

0:03:500:03:52

so you should

0:03:520:03:53

so you should behave really well.

0:03:530:03:57

Whether you love bats or not, most of us probably wouldn't

0:03:570:04:00

want to live with a load of them.

0:04:000:04:02

But some churches are letting these little guys make themselves at home.

0:04:020:04:05

Here's Ayshah.

0:04:050:04:06

It might be a bit cold and draughty, but for bats, it is one

0:04:060:04:09

of their favourite places to make a home.

0:04:090:04:11

And these kids have come to the skirt in Norfolk to find out

0:04:110:04:14

all about the bats that live here.

0:04:140:04:16

I've been around and seen two of these, like, tiny bats.

0:04:160:04:18

That were flappering about.

0:04:180:04:19

And going like...

0:04:190:04:20

I saw two of the small bats.

0:04:200:04:25

I saw a flaper bat.

0:04:250:04:26

I like bats because they can hang upside down.

0:04:260:04:28

I like bats because they fly around.

0:04:280:04:32

But they're not always the easiest animals to live with.

0:04:320:04:34

And the people that own churches are worried

0:04:340:04:36

that the bats are damaging these very old buildings.

0:04:360:04:42

With the bat wee leaving little white spots

0:04:420:04:44

like this on gravestones.

0:04:440:04:45

So they might not be the most welcome guests,

0:04:450:04:48

but it's actually really important to protect these bats.

0:04:480:04:50

Bat populations over a number of years have been declining.

0:04:500:04:52

Hopefully we will stop that.

0:04:520:04:58

Hopefully we have stopped that.

0:04:580:04:59

But churches are one of the most important

0:04:590:05:05

But churches are one of the most important buildings

0:05:050:05:07

in the countryside that bats can use.

0:05:070:05:08

Luckily for the bats, this church is happy to let them

0:05:080:05:11

stay in the church roof now.

0:05:110:05:14

But they are building special bat boxes outside the church for them

0:05:140:05:17

to live in in the future, so they don't make

0:05:170:05:19

any more mess inside.

0:05:190:05:20

And a special project called Bats in Churches is asking other places

0:05:200:05:23

of worship to do the same.

0:05:230:05:25

Now, check this out for a mega water slide.

0:05:250:05:27

Thousands of people in Seoul, South Korea, took to the streets

0:05:270:05:30

to try out this 300 metre long water slide.

0:05:300:05:32

How fun does that look!

0:05:320:05:34

The fun street event is to advertise Winter Olympic Games

0:05:340:05:38

in the country next year.

0:05:380:05:41

And finally we want your questions to put to the people

0:05:410:05:44

who make Minecraft.

0:05:440:05:45

Yes, you heard it right.

0:05:450:05:46

Your chance to ask whatever you want to the people behind one

0:05:460:05:49

of the most popular computer games in the world.

0:05:490:05:51

So head over to the website now.

0:05:510:05:56

Newsround is back right here just after 2pm.
