Ricky here with Newsround on Saturday. | :00:29. | :00:29. | |
First up, more success in the pool as Team GB | :00:30. | :00:32. | |
bagged their fourth medal in the World Championships | :00:33. | :00:33. | |
They won gold in the men's 4x200m freestyle. | :00:34. | :00:37. | |
GB had three medals from the first five days of competition, all gold, | :00:38. | :00:40. | |
What a great swim by all of us. I knew that I would be a bit flighty | :00:41. | :00:54. | |
but for me tonight was about getting back, having a good time with the | :00:55. | :00:57. | |
back, having a good time with the boys and we're world champions. | :00:58. | :01:01. | |
More sport now and Great Britain's U23's team took on Turkey | :01:02. | :01:04. | |
at the The World Wheelchair Basketball Championships last | :01:05. | :01:06. | |
month - and for the first time they won gold! | :01:07. | :01:08. | |
Hayley went to meet the team in Sheffield where they train. | :01:09. | :01:14. | |
It was this match with this shot from Ben Fox that gave the GB team | :01:15. | :01:21. | |
the oning trophy. But it hasn't stopped there. The team have | :01:22. | :01:25. | |
reunited in Sheffield as they are training around the clock for the | :01:26. | :01:31. | |
European basketball championships and there is hope for Paralympic | :01:32. | :01:34. | |
success in the future. We are back for two weeks now. It is | :01:35. | :01:39. | |
starting to set in when you do this. You look back, since I've been back | :01:40. | :01:44. | |
I've not thought about it, it's good to have a think back. You don't | :01:45. | :01:49. | |
always get time to think about about what you have achieved. | :01:50. | :01:57. | |
Was it about basketball? It has helped my life. | :01:58. | :02:03. | |
And what is the dream? To get the gold on the day of the European | :02:04. | :02:05. | |
Championships, that is the challenge. | :02:06. | :02:09. | |
Right, are you up for this? Let's do it! | :02:10. | :02:21. | |
MUSIC: Eye of the Tiger, from Rocky. | :02:22. | :02:26. | |
Lots of people all over the UK live in tower blocks like these. | :02:27. | :02:30. | |
But since the massive fire at Grenfell Tower | :02:31. | :02:32. | |
about how safe they are in the event of a fire. | :02:33. | :02:36. | |
I went to meet Shania who lives in a tower block in London. | :02:37. | :02:53. | |
Hello. How are you doing? Come into my | :02:54. | :02:58. | |
house. How long have you lived here for? | :02:59. | :03:02. | |
Basically, a year. So what do we have here? This is the | :03:03. | :03:06. | |
kitchen, the front room and the balcony. | :03:07. | :03:10. | |
What a view! This is incredible. What is it like living here with the | :03:11. | :03:16. | |
view? I love it. The Shard is there. After a long day at school, Shania | :03:17. | :03:21. | |
is home and showing me her flat in south-west London. | :03:22. | :03:26. | |
I am 14. I am going out with my friends, irritating my mum. I like | :03:27. | :03:32. | |
swimming, playing rugby. I've lived here for a year. I Joan joy it. I | :03:33. | :03:37. | |
like the view, I like my bedroom. And it has a roof garden. I prefer | :03:38. | :03:42. | |
it. Since last month's fire at Grenfell | :03:43. | :03:49. | |
Tower, people who look after other tower blocks around the country have | :03:50. | :03:52. | |
been working to ensure buildings a safe in the future and to ensure a | :03:53. | :03:56. | |
tragedy like that never happens again. | :03:57. | :04:01. | |
What was it like when the fire happened at Grenfell Tower, could | :04:02. | :04:05. | |
you see anything? I could see the smoke. | :04:06. | :04:08. | |
You could see the smoke? Yeah. Shocking. | :04:09. | :04:13. | |
One of the big things that's been talked about at the Grenfell Tower | :04:14. | :04:16. | |
fire is this stuff. It's called cladding. It's wrapped around | :04:17. | :04:21. | |
buildings to try to protect it from the weather and to also change a | :04:22. | :04:26. | |
tower's appearance. Some experts have said that the | :04:27. | :04:31. | |
typing cladding used could have had a part in making the fewer at | :04:32. | :04:39. | |
Grenfell Tower much worse. The building that Shania lives in, | :04:40. | :04:44. | |
has the same type of cladding but the company that owns it told | :04:45. | :04:48. | |
Newsround it will be taken off and replaced. They say that the Fire | :04:49. | :04:52. | |
Brigade have checked the building and it is safe to live in now | :04:53. | :04:58. | |
because of all of the other features, including sprinklers and | :04:59. | :05:01. | |
smoke alarms at home. They told us to test our fire alarms | :05:02. | :05:06. | |
and to be careful. We have been given a lot of advice. In every room | :05:07. | :05:11. | |
you go in there is a sprinkler. We have been told we are safe. There is | :05:12. | :05:17. | |
nothing for us to worry about. Shania and her mum have seen and | :05:18. | :05:23. | |
heard a lot about tower blocks since the Grenfell Tower. Many want people | :05:24. | :05:35. | |
living in clad tower blocks to feel safe. They Shania and her mum like | :05:36. | :05:42. | |
They Shania and her mum like living here. | :05:43. | :05:44. | |
Finally, to the hot air balloons lighting up the night sky... | :05:45. | :05:47. | |
What a magical sight this must have been | :05:48. | :05:49. | |
for spectators late last night in Italy. | :05:50. | :05:50. | |
It's one of the biggest balloon festivals and lasts for 10 days. | :05:51. | :05:53. | |
The balloons will take off later this afternoon. | :05:54. | :05:55. | |
That's all from me, Newsround's back right | :05:56. | :06:02. | |
Do you know what I love? A good drawing | :06:03. | :06:05. |
