:00:15. > :00:20.coming to you live from Newcastle, Gateshead, where we are taking over
:00:21. > :00:24.Baltic Square for the next three days. You can see the action from
:00:25. > :00:29.our live camera overlooking the River Tyne. If you come along, you
:00:30. > :00:33.will catch a host of stars on the main stage. Already, hundreds of
:00:34. > :00:42.children had taken part in the event. The gang from Blue Peter have
:00:43. > :00:46.a huge amount -- announcement. But firstly, the top story. Earlier
:00:47. > :00:51.today, we went on the hand for some headlines with some local children
:00:52. > :00:54.and with the hand of some famous see BBC faces, she came up with this.
:00:55. > :01:00.I've got to find a story of the Newsround, I've got a meeting. Hi,
:01:01. > :01:04.guys, I need a story for Newsround. I've got a great idea, you can do a
:01:05. > :01:08.story on Johnny and Inel. We have to get lunch now. Sam
:01:09. > :01:14.and Mark, great, I need a story for Newsround.
:01:15. > :01:23.When Chew at the One Direction concert last night? I wasn't, I
:01:24. > :01:29.thought you were. That was yesterday's news.
:01:30. > :01:34.These kids are from NE1 two, a project which helps kids in
:01:35. > :01:38.Newcastle. Perhaps they have an idea. I hope you guys can help. A
:01:39. > :01:50.story on the World Cup? Your youth centre? Giant fish in Indonesia. You
:01:51. > :01:54.guys have given me loads of great ideas but I am really interested in
:01:55. > :01:59.the youth centre you go to. Why is it so important? We can hang out
:02:00. > :02:06.with our friends, there are fun things to do and we love going
:02:07. > :02:10.there. They have helped us get jobs and things like that. I like her you
:02:11. > :02:15.can be creative. Sounds like this youth centre is really important to
:02:16. > :02:21.you, why should Newsround cover it? The stereotype of young people, we
:02:22. > :02:25.are trying to change it. Old people might feel that these young people
:02:26. > :02:33.are doing good for their lives. When we come down, what are we going to
:02:34. > :02:41.see? A dance studio. Gadget room. I think we will check it out, I will
:02:42. > :02:45.get the camera crew ready. So the clock is ticking, they have
:02:46. > :02:50.less than 24 hours to get the story film so we can bring it to you this
:02:51. > :02:54.time tomorrow. Let's see how they are getting on. Somewhere in the
:02:55. > :02:59.ground over there... I have the kids with me right now.
:03:00. > :03:04.Can you just tell us, why is your youth centre so important to you?
:03:05. > :03:10.There are loads of activities, it is fun to hang out with your friends.
:03:11. > :03:17.What about you? At the start that make everything special. Did you
:03:18. > :03:22.have fun coming up with the ideas? I liked the shark story, the one that
:03:23. > :03:28.let all the fish out. That is a great story. What about the things
:03:29. > :03:32.you have done today, tell me about the badge? It is a badge but it is
:03:33. > :03:38.good, because it has your name flashing on and off. That is
:03:39. > :03:42.fantastic. Thank you so much, we will see your report tomorrow, but
:03:43. > :03:48.if you look around me here, there is loads of amazing stuff. There is a
:03:49. > :03:53.dance class going on, I am not going to lie, I want to join it. There is
:03:54. > :03:58.a music centre, loads of sport. It is absolutely brilliant. The sun is
:03:59. > :04:02.shining, it wasn't earlier, so I am really grateful and make sure you
:04:03. > :04:03.tune into the report at 4:20pm tomorrow, you can see the whole
:04:04. > :04:13.thing. Back to you Ricky. It was raining earlier, but it is
:04:14. > :04:16.very bright now. So much to come from Newcastle today, including a
:04:17. > :04:23.very special Blue Peter. Here are the details. You have to watch in
:04:24. > :04:27.about an hour, one of us is going to become a knight, that is true, and
:04:28. > :04:35.we are revealing the brand-new 2014 Blue Peter sport badge. We have the
:04:36. > :04:43.Olympic gymnast medallist Lewis Smith and some exclusive
:04:44. > :04:49.performances. And I just saw Pixie Lott rehearsing onstage. Newsround
:04:50. > :04:54.is back here at 6:50 p.m., we will be behind the scenes having a sneaky
:04:55. > :04:58.nose around. Who knows who she will bump into? Head over
:04:59. > :04:59.nose around. Who knows who she will by loads of pictures from Newcastle.
