:00:00. > :00:09.Afternoon, all, Ayshah here rounding off all the news this Sunday. On the

:00:10. > :00:12.way in the next few minutes... We'll show you the Winter Olympics'

:00:13. > :00:21.most brutal sport. And the panda twins who still don't have a name.

:00:22. > :00:24.But first, a state of emergency has been declared in the Australian area

:00:25. > :00:28.of New South Wales - as the worst bushfires in a decade are predicted

:00:29. > :00:31.to get worse. It means anyone left in their home will be forced to

:00:32. > :00:34.leave and electricity switched off. 200 homes have already been

:00:35. > :00:42.destroyed as more than 80 blazes rage in the Blue Mountains near

:00:43. > :00:52.Sydney. Kylie is an Australian woman caught in the middle of it. Are we

:00:53. > :00:56.waiting to see what will happen this afternoon, conditions are getting

:00:57. > :01:04.worse. While being in the middle of it is horrendous, waiting on this

:01:05. > :01:11.eye Blind is excruciating. -- one the sidelines. You realise this is a

:01:12. > :01:14.very big deal. OK, as you tuck into your Sunday

:01:15. > :01:18.lunch, it's hard to imagine that 870 million people around the world do

:01:19. > :01:21.not have enough to eat. One in eight people on the planet suffer from

:01:22. > :01:24.malnutrition. It's something that prompted Outnumbered actor Daniel

:01:25. > :01:35.Roche to send Newsround this special report from India. You might

:01:36. > :01:38.recognise me as then from Outnumbered. I am here in India to

:01:39. > :01:43.see how hard it is for children to get enough to eat. I saw examples of

:01:44. > :01:48.children who had their own aspirations in life but because of

:01:49. > :02:00.poverty, they were forced to help out with their parents' jobs. I saw

:02:01. > :02:04.centres set up to give children a safe life and a safe meal and to

:02:05. > :02:12.give them an education. I met these brothers. They are very small for

:02:13. > :02:19.their age. Almost half of the children in India are stunted, they

:02:20. > :02:22.haven't grown properly. I understood there was poverty so it didn't

:02:23. > :02:25.surprise me to see the poverty but to actually get to talk to the

:02:26. > :02:33.people and see that they were real people, irreverent just things on a

:02:34. > :02:39.TV screen, to try and feel the emotions they were feeling. I met

:02:40. > :02:44.people in India over my and had aspirations and to see that ticking

:02:45. > :02:52.away from them, it inspired me to do more. The charity is basically a

:02:53. > :02:59.relay which covers the same distance as a marathon so each person will to

:03:00. > :03:04.around six laps. It is all about raking the record. What is so good

:03:05. > :03:07.about it is it is children. So children can raise money.

:03:08. > :03:09.about it is it is children. So OK, next, experts say the first

:03:10. > :03:11.about it is it is children. So panda cubs born in America for 6

:03:12. > :03:15.years are finally ready to meet the panda cubs born in America for 6

:03:16. > :03:18.public. The two males have been wrapped up inside a zoo in Atlanta

:03:19. > :03:22.since their surprise birth in July. A competition's running in the US to

:03:23. > :03:25.name the pair with the names announced next week. Well, just for

:03:26. > :03:27.fun we've been asking you what you'd like to call them over on the

:03:28. > :03:39.Newsround website. And Nia in Dorset's told us, "I

:03:40. > :03:41.would call them Charles after Charles Dickens and Alfred after

:03:42. > :03:53.Alfred Nobel, to represent intelligence and peace."

:03:54. > :03:56.Next to one of the most brutal sports you're ever likely to come

:03:57. > :04:02.across. Sledge hockey is described as wheelchair rugby on ice. And if

:04:03. > :04:05.playing it wasn't hard enough, the Team GB Paralympic squad have had to

:04:06. > :04:09.sacrifice more than your average athlete just to be in with a shout

:04:10. > :04:19.of qualifying for next year's Winter Olympics. You might not recognise

:04:20. > :04:25.sledge hockey but get used to it because it is a big deal. Think ice

:04:26. > :04:31.hockey but using adapted sticks and metal sledges. It is fast and

:04:32. > :04:42.furious and pretty full on. It is aggressive. Extremely fast. Team GB

:04:43. > :04:48.do not have a brilliant record and not qualify for the last games. They

:04:49. > :04:55.have never been given any money to run the sport and have to train at

:04:56. > :05:00.midnight. We have been shaking buckets in front of supermarkets to

:05:01. > :05:07.try and raise money. But things are looking up. Qualification is

:05:08. > :05:10.ruthless, sixteens head to Italy in October to take

:05:11. > :05:11.ruthless, sixteens head to Italy in tournament. The top three go to the

:05:12. > :05:19.Winter Olympics and the bottom three do not.

:05:20. > :05:22.And if you thought that looked pretty crazy, take a look at this.

:05:23. > :05:26.It's the annual Bridge Day Festival in Virginia, USA. 450 base jumpers

:05:27. > :05:30.are hurled from 800 foot up then fire parachutes to get them back

:05:31. > :05:37.down to safety. I'll give that one a miss, I think.

:05:38. > :05:43.Finally, to the biggest face you'll ever see. I'm not being insulting.

:05:44. > :05:46.This is a special portrait of a six-year-old girl in Belfast. It's

:05:47. > :05:49.been drawn across 11 acres and the artist responsible used 30,000 pegs,

:05:50. > :05:58.2,000 tonnes of soil and 2,000 tonnes of sand to build it.

:05:59. > :06:01.That's it from me, but Leah will be back bright and early tomorrow

:06:02. > :06:03.morning with all you need to know. Bye.
