Good monring, I'm Ayshah.

0:00:100:00:12

First up, and around 4,000 people were told to leave their homes

0:00:120:00:16

in Camden, North London last night due to concerns about fire safety.

0:00:160:00:21

It's after a fire at the Grenfell Tower Block last week.

0:00:210:00:24

The police say the outside covering, or cladding, on the Grenfell block

0:00:240:00:29

failed safety tests and could have made the fire there

0:00:290:00:32

spread more quickly.

0:00:320:00:34

The buildings that have been evacuated have a similar covering

0:00:340:00:37

so the people who live there have been moved to make

0:00:370:00:40

sure they are safe.

0:00:400:00:41

Some buildings are having the cladding taken down.

0:00:410:00:47

And staying with that story, thousands of you wore green clothes

0:00:470:00:50

at school yesterday.

0:00:500:00:51

It was part of a big fundraising day called Green for Grenfell to raise

0:00:510:00:59

money for the people affected by the fire.

0:00:590:01:00

Some of you sent us video messages to say why

0:01:000:01:03

you wanted to get involved.

0:01:030:01:04

We are wearing green for Grenfell, to raise money for the

0:01:040:01:07

victims of Grenfell Tower.

0:01:070:01:09

I am wearing green socks.

0:01:090:01:11

Everyone who is wearing green has donated at least

0:01:110:01:16

?1 to the fund, and in a school of over 1000 students we have hopefully

0:01:160:01:20

raised a lot of money.

0:01:200:01:21

I think it is a good thing for schools to take

0:01:210:01:25

part in because even though Grenfell Tower is hundreds of miles away it's

0:01:250:01:28

good to show that we still care and that we are affected by it.

0:01:280:01:32

Well, Britain is a very small island and

0:01:320:01:34

we are all just really one community together.

0:01:340:01:36

We need to look after each other.

0:01:360:01:37

ALL: Green for Grenfell!

0:01:370:01:38
