Good morning!

0:00:110:00:13

I'm Jenny, live with all the top stories this Wednesday.

0:00:130:00:16

First, it was an amazing night for England as they reached

0:00:160:00:18

the final of the Women's Rugby World Cup.

0:00:180:00:21

Meg Jones scored this try, meaning a victory against France in Belfast.

0:00:210:00:30

Final score 20-3.

0:00:300:00:31

They'll play New Zealand for the world title on Saturday.

0:00:310:00:34

More good news - England are through to the semi-finals

0:00:340:00:36

of the Women's Euro Hockey Championships in Amsterdam.

0:00:360:00:38

The defending champions beat Scotland 2-0 to reach the last four.

0:00:380:00:44

The Blind Football European Championships is taking place

0:00:440:00:46

in Berlin, and take a look at this goal.

0:00:460:00:49

This is England against France - and just watch the number 5,

0:00:490:00:52

Daniel English.

0:00:520:00:53

Spectacular stuff.

0:00:530:00:54

In blind football the players wear masks to take account

0:00:540:00:56

of different levels of sight, and the ball makes a noise

0:00:560:00:59

so the players can find it.

0:00:590:01:04

England went on to win the game7-0.

0:01:040:01:06

The tournament is still going on.

0:01:060:01:14

-- England went on to win the game 7-0.

0:01:140:01:16

Next, to the city of Mosul in Iraq.

0:01:160:01:20

There've been fierce battles there since 2014,

0:01:200:01:22

and hundreds of thousands of families have had

0:01:220:01:24

to leave their homes.

0:01:240:01:25

This is the story of one girl who's rebuilding her

0:01:250:01:27

life in a refugee camp.

0:01:270:01:28

Mosul - the second-largest city in Iraq.

0:01:280:01:34

Until recently, the city was controlled by the extremist

0:01:340:01:36

Islamist group that calls itself Islamic State.

0:01:360:01:42

Islamic State has killed a lot of people in Iraq

0:01:420:01:44

and neighbouring Syria.

0:01:440:01:49

It's also claimed responsibility for deadly attacks around the world,

0:01:490:01:54

including here in the UK.

0:01:540:01:56

At the start of this year the Iraqi Army won

0:01:560:01:58

back the city of Mosul.

0:01:580:01:59

But to escape the fighting, hundreds of thousands

0:01:590:02:01

were forced to flee the city, leaving everything behind.

0:02:010:02:07

Now those people are trying to rebuild their lives.

0:02:070:02:09

Like Arwa.

0:02:090:02:17

TRANSLATION: My name is Arwa, I am 10 years old.

0:02:170:02:19

She grew up in Mosul.

0:02:190:02:20

Because of the fighting, I stopped going to school.

0:02:200:02:29

We fled our village because of the bombing.

0:02:290:02:31

When we first got here, it was difficult for us.

0:02:310:02:35

Then I became happy.

0:02:350:02:36

Now she's living here

0:02:360:02:37

in this refugee camp, which was set up to help

0:02:370:02:40

the people who left.

0:02:400:02:45

Along with hundreds of other children, she's taking

0:02:450:02:47

part in special lessons.

0:02:470:02:48

Arwa says the mindfulness and meditation helps her to focus

0:02:480:02:51

on something other than war.

0:02:510:02:52

She says they make her smile again.

0:02:520:03:00

We started to draw, play and learn.

0:03:000:03:01

They teach us how to play games.

0:03:010:03:09

This tent is Arwa's classroom - a big change to the place

0:03:090:03:12

she used to call school.

0:03:120:03:14

But spending time with other children and learning new things has

0:03:140:03:16

had a big impact on her life.

0:03:160:03:18

When I grow up, I want to be a teacher so I can

0:03:180:03:21

help other children.

0:03:210:03:27

Now, some of you are already back at school -

0:03:270:03:29

but for others, the summer holiday is only just coming to an end,

0:03:290:03:32

and some may be a little worried about starting high school

0:03:320:03:35

for the first time.

0:03:350:03:42

It can be a little nerve-racking, but don't worry - these guys

0:03:420:03:45

sent us some top tips, to help you out.

0:03:450:03:47

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

0:03:470:03:50

will more likely keep you later, so you miss your bus,

0:03:500:03:53

so you have to stay at school later.

0:03:530:03:55

If you're feeling nervous, you should go and talk to someone

0:03:550:03:57

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

0:03:570:04:00

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

0:04:000:04:03

Don't feel stressed.

0:04:030:04:04

It's going to be bigger than primary school,

0:04:040:04:06

and it takes a while to get used to it, but after a while you

0:04:060:04:09

will get used to it.

0:04:090:04:11

Be loud and confident with your answer, instead

0:04:110:04:13

of just being like, oh, is it this?

0:04:130:04:19

Behave.

0:04:190:04:21

Do your homework.

0:04:210:04:23

Do as the teacher asks.

0:04:230:04:32

Try and make as many new friends who do not go

0:04:320:04:35

to your primary as you can.

0:04:350:04:37

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

0:04:370:04:38

Go and find new people, make new friends.

0:04:380:04:40

First impressions of teachers are really important

0:04:400:04:42

because the teacher will base how your behaviour is off

0:04:420:04:44

that first impression.

0:04:440:04:45

And you don't have a first impression twice, so you should

0:04:450:04:48

behave really well.

0:04:480:04:49

That's all from the team for now, Newsround's back

0:04:490:04:51

right here at 8.15am.

0:04:510:04:52

See you then!
