:00:29. > :00:32.First to the town of Port Talbot in South Wales.
:00:33. > :00:34.It's home to the biggest steelworks in the country.
:00:35. > :00:36.People there are worried because Tata Steel, which owns
:00:37. > :00:41.the site, wants to sell it and workers could lose their jobs.
:00:42. > :00:46.The company employs around 10,000 people at 14 sites in Britain.
:00:47. > :00:49.It wants to get rid of them because they are losing money.
:00:50. > :01:03.Ricky, what have people there told you?
:01:04. > :01:10.I'm in Port Tolbert in South Wales. Lots of lorries coming into the
:01:11. > :01:14.factory. -- Port Talbot. This is a big site as you can see. Lots of
:01:15. > :01:18.families waking up not sure what will happen to the steelworks here.
:01:19. > :01:22.We know that the Prime Minister is holding a special meeting to talk
:01:23. > :01:26.about the future of the UK steel industry. Yesterday, I spent the day
:01:27. > :01:31.speeding tickets in the town because of them have parents working in the
:01:32. > :01:35.factory or no people in their street working there. I wanted to find out
:01:36. > :01:37.how things would change if the factory is to close.
:01:38. > :01:47.Wherever you are in Port Talbot, it is not hard to miss
:01:48. > :01:55.You can see it from pretty much all over the town.
:01:56. > :01:59.And kids have been telling me today that they will be pretty sad
:02:00. > :02:02.Alfie and Lily, your dad works at the steelworks.
:02:03. > :02:04.He has worked there for six years, hasn't he?
:02:05. > :02:08.And what do you think would happen if it was to close?
:02:09. > :02:11.Well, I would miss seeing the ships going in and out.
:02:12. > :02:14.What is it like having a dad who works at the steelworks?
:02:15. > :02:21.You have got the beach and then the mountains where I live,
:02:22. > :02:24.which is like my back garden, so it is nice to explore different
:02:25. > :02:32.And how much of a big deal is the steelworks for this town?
:02:33. > :02:34.It is major because there are so many jobs there
:02:35. > :02:36.and so many of my friends' parents work there.
:02:37. > :02:39.And it means so much to them if they keep their jobs.
:02:40. > :02:43.I know lots of people, especially loads of neighbours
:02:44. > :02:46.It would affect them because they all have children.
:02:47. > :02:49.So, if it closes, then they will all be out of work.
:02:50. > :02:52.If it was to close, would it be quite sad?
:02:53. > :02:57.Yes, it would be bad for the country and the economy.
:02:58. > :03:05.Not just the community, but also some smaller businesses
:03:06. > :03:09.Could you imagine Port Talbot without the factory?

:03:34. > :03:35.Afear's mum is recovering but in the meantime keeper Lindsey
:03:36. > :03:38.has taken her home so she can feed Afear through the night.
:03:39. > :03:42.The little gorilla is now doing well and it's hoped her mum will be able
:03:43. > :03:57.Chickens, scarecrows and a wooden cow.
:03:58. > :04:01.Today, we are finding out where our food comes from.
:04:02. > :04:06.This farm workshop has arrived at school to give us classes
:04:07. > :04:09.on planting fruit and veg, discovering how to grow grain
:04:10. > :04:16.We're finding out how chickens live and how to keep

:04:22. > :04:26.All day, my school has been taking part in workshops where we have been
:04:27. > :04:28.learning more about what farmers do and what tools they use to produce
:04:29. > :04:41.OK, it is a wooden one, but you get the idea.
:04:42. > :04:45.This may look all very "a-moo-sing", but there is some serious
:04:46. > :04:51.We have come here today to tell you what we do back on our home

:05:02. > :05:04.It is important that you learn where food comes
:05:05. > :05:07.from because you need to understand what you are eating and you need
:05:08. > :05:10.to understand the health benefits that it can give.
:05:11. > :05:19.This little mill is used to grind grain to make flour.
:05:20. > :05:22.One of the workshops these guys are doing is learning how
:05:23. > :05:31.That is really important for farmers because if birds come,
:05:32. > :05:34.they get scared of the scarecrows and it protect their crops
:05:35. > :05:36.and all the food that they need to grow.
:05:37. > :05:38.Although farming is not something I would want to do myself
:05:39. > :05:41.when I grow up, these workshops have definitely taught me about the foods
:05:42. > :05:46.I eat and where it comes from, which I think is really important
:05:47. > :05:57.And any excuse to hold a baby chick is good for me, even if
:05:58. > :06:02.That's all from me, Newsround's back right here at 4.20 this afternoon.
