Hi, I'm Martin, it's Thursday and this is Newsround. | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
Here's what's coming up on the show today. | :00:00. | :00:07. | |
No More Mary and Paul as Mary quits Bake Off. | :00:08. | :00:22. | |
First up, Prince William has given a speech this afternoon calling | :00:23. | :00:25. | |
for more protection for elephants and an end to the illegal trade | :00:26. | :00:28. | |
He said that poaching in Africa has reached dangerous levels over | :00:29. | :00:34. | |
the last few years and that if it continues at this rate, | :00:35. | :00:37. | |
elephants could become extinct within 25 years. | :00:38. | :00:41. | |
Poaching is the illegal killing of animals like elephants | :00:42. | :00:44. | |
These are worth a lot of money as carved ornaments. | :00:45. | :00:49. | |
People in countries like China and Vietnam also buy | :00:50. | :00:52. | |
them as they believe they work as medicines. | :00:53. | :00:56. | |
He was talking ahead of a big meeting next week when leaders | :00:57. | :00:58. | |
from around the world will be discussing how they can | :00:59. | :01:01. | |
protect animals and stop the illegal trade in ivory. | :01:02. | :01:06. | |
When I was born, there were 1 million elephants roaming Africa, by | :01:07. | :01:18. | |
the time my daughter Charlotte was born last year, they have crashed to | :01:19. | :01:24. | |
just under 150,000. When Charlotte turns 25, at this pace, the African | :01:25. | :01:26. | |
elephant will be gone from the wild. Dame Sarah Storey is Britain's | :01:27. | :01:29. | |
greatest ever female Paralympian. Over seven games, she's won 14 golds | :01:30. | :01:32. | |
in swimming and cycling - including three at this summer's | :01:33. | :01:35. | |
Paralympic Games in Rio. Here she is with answers | :01:36. | :01:37. | |
to your questions. That first gold medal around my neck | :01:38. | :01:50. | |
in the velodrome, I could not believe how heavy it was, it really | :01:51. | :01:57. | |
choked me up. People ask me, are you crying Akkadian? My know | :01:58. | :02:04. | |
nervous energy is good, I go through the processes I have practised in | :02:05. | :02:17. | |
training, trying to think about the thing I'm trying to do, not getting | :02:18. | :02:24. | |
distracted by anything else. I got into cycling because I went over to | :02:25. | :02:31. | |
the Manchester Velodrome, going to a public taster session. You can do | :02:32. | :02:35. | |
that in any of them around the country, Newport, Derby, Glasgow, | :02:36. | :02:40. | |
Manchester, London. Go around the track. Then I got into road cycling, | :02:41. | :02:45. | |
that really caught my heart. That is where I spend most my time now. | :02:46. | :02:47. | |
A year ago we told you about the difficult | :02:48. | :02:49. | |
journey Nujeen was making, fleeing war in her home country | :02:50. | :02:51. | |
of Syria, and travelling to Germany to find safety - | :02:52. | :02:54. | |
a journey made extra tricky because she uses a wheelchair. | :02:55. | :02:56. | |
Now - a year on - Nujeen's talking about life in Germany | :02:57. | :02:59. | |
It is a journey... This was her back in 2015, 16 years old, travelling | :03:00. | :03:14. | |
from Syria. Three Europe, towards Germany. She made the journey with | :03:15. | :03:20. | |
her big sister, but had to leave her mum and dad behind. A difficult | :03:21. | :03:26. | |
journey, travelling by boat, waiting at borders of countries to find out | :03:27. | :03:30. | |
whether or not she would be able to continue her journey to safety. | :03:31. | :03:34. | |
Eventually she reached Germany where her brother was already living, and | :03:35. | :03:39. | |
has built a new life. How do she described herself now? Just like any | :03:40. | :03:45. | |
other person. She wakes up early, goes to school, she is a | :03:46. | :03:51. | |
hard-working pupil, I hope. She speaks German. And she is safe, not | :03:52. | :04:02. | |
afraid anymore. She is in safety, but thinks about the fighting going | :04:03. | :04:06. | |
on in Syria. Comparing the country to a sick person, that she hopes | :04:07. | :04:11. | |
will get better one day. I miss you. Don't worry, you are just really, | :04:12. | :04:18. | |
really sick. I am sure you are going to get better. When you do, I will | :04:19. | :04:27. | |
be right by your side. When the fighting stops, she hopes to return. | :04:28. | :04:30. | |
Finally, Mary Berry has scone, from the Great British Bake Off, | :04:31. | :04:35. | |
but Paul says muffin would make him leave. | :04:36. | :04:38. | |
Sorry, my puns are taking the biscuit today! | :04:39. | :04:42. | |
Of course I'm talking about the news that Mary Berry has said today | :04:43. | :04:45. | |
that she is leaving the show after this series. | :04:46. | :04:48. | |
Paul Hollywood has confirmed though that he will be staying. | :04:49. | :04:50. | |
That's all from me, Newsround's back tomorrow with Naz. | :04:51. | :04:52. | |
