Episode 3 WHOOPS I MISSED NEWSROUND

Need to catch up on all your latest news?

Feel like the month has passed you by?

Well, don't worry, because we've got all your latest stories.

It's Whoops I Missed Newsround.

Andrew's back again.

Smiley poo. Crying face.

Our junior journos are back for more.

My group came third, I came third in the solo.

And what are this lot up to?

-# Every day

-when

-you're

-walking

-down

-the street...

First, let's kick things off with a trip down memory lane.

Here's Mr News himself, Andrew,

with everything that happened on Newsround in June.

Hello. Let's start with June's main story.

Ta da!

I've got a new T-shirt! Mr News!

And in other news...

The month started with Aisha visiting an amazing new

telescope in South Africa, which will search for alien life in space.

This is the Square Kilometre Array project.

When it's finished it will be the world's most powerful

radio telescope.

If it finds signs of life, it may enable us

to send simple messages to aliens.

Hey, alien, what's up? Lol. Smiley face. Winky face.

A simple question-answer can take like 40 years.

Still nothing. Smiley poo. Crying face.

Something else that threatened to leave a bad taste

in our mouths was the European Football Championships or Euros.

History was made as the home nations of Wales, England

and Northern Ireland reached the knockout stages.

Sadly, England lost to Iceland - yeah, you heard that right -

forcing manager Roy Hodgson to resign.

"I'm obviously very, very disappointed to have lost the game,

"my job, my dignity, to a country

"that has more volcanoes than professional footballers.

"Sorry about that."

There was one definite sporting success.

The British women's team have won silver

in the team final at

the European Gymnastics Championships in Switzerland.

Oh, wow! A twisted pike triple somersault sausage roll!

Did you see it? It was amazing!

The summer of sport continued with the start of the Wimbledon

tennis tournament, and you know what that means, don't you?

A very excited Andy Murray.

You know, first matches are always tricky.

Coming out there, it was pretty breezy at the beginning.

"I'm so excited.

"I feel like I might fall asleep right now."

June's biggest headline was the EU referendum, where the UK voted

to leave the European Union after 43 years of membership.

There were cheers, jeers, and even some fears

about what this means for the UK.

And Newsround was right in the middle of the action.

Very good morning to you.

I'm outside the Houses of Parliament here in Westminster.

It is incredibly busy. There are so many journalists, camera operators.

The referendum result led to David Cameron announcing

he will step down as Prime Minister in the autumn.

And as such I think the country requires fresh leadership to

take it in this direction.

He's home!

At 10.15 this morning, British astronaut Tim Peake

touched down on Earth after spending six months

living in space on board the International Space Station.

After half a year in orbit he was pretty weak, but it wasn't

long before he was able to make the phone call he'd been dreaming about.

"Hello. One extra large pizza with cheddar cheese, goat's cheese,

"blue cheese... I've missed cheese."

Mmm. Cheese.

In the world of wizardry, author JK Rowling opened the doors to her

new play, Harry Potter And The Cursed Child.

Accio playscript!

And June quite literally ended on a high when the largest

and longest tunnel slide ever built was officially

opened at the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park in London.

And Ayshah had a go.

SHE SQUEALS AND LAUGHS

It goes around 12 times!

And that was the month that was June.

Who knew June would be so jam-packed?

And it's been pretty busy for you guys, too.

Our junior journos are here to report on

all their stories of the month. Take it away, newshounds!

I went to a street dance competition.

My group came third, I came third in the solo.

Now I have to go by plane to Glasgow for the World Championships.

I might even go to Edinburgh while I'm there and see my dad's friend.

Well done!

Eddie had puppies four weeks ago, and I named seven of them.

Their names are, Marshmallow, Meatball, Superman, JP,

Whiskers, Zip and Dancer.

It's her second lot of puppies.

-Bravo!

-Sports news, now.

Local gymnast Millie performed a round-backed somersault

for the first time.

(I was very pleased!)

Great reporting!

And if you see yourself as a budding journalist,

just record 15 seconds of yourself talking about your favourite

news moment of the month and upload it to the Whoops web page.

Newsround loves celebrating some of the most amazing kids around,

and this month was no exception.

It's time to meet our Headline Heroes.

The winners of the BBC's 500 Words were announced

this morning at a huge ceremony at the Globe Theatre in London with

the Duchess of Cornwall.

They were celebrating the best fantastic short stories

written by kids,

and we've got the gold winner from the 10-13 category here.

Tell us about your story, E-courtroom.com.

Its theme is, in the future instead of having courtrooms in a room,

they have it online, that's cos of the "e",

and they have 500 words to prove that they are innocent.

Sounds brilliant. Well, the judges absolutely loved it.

In fact we've got a comment from one of them here.

Francesca Simon says this story was "brilliantly original.

"I loved the way Ned used the 500 words format to write a tense story.

"It was gripping and thought-provoking. A triumph."

In March, the Radio Times magazine launched a competition

for children to design the front cover for the Queen's 90th birthday.

And I'm proud to be able to announce the winner is Ayesha Mahmood with

this lovely crown design.

You've just won this Radio Times competition for the cover.

-How do you feel?

-Happy, excited, and I'm really proud of myself.

-How many people entered?

-11,332.

-That's very precise.

-And you beat them all?

-Yeah.

When you find out you won, what did you do?

-My party was the next day, and I told everybody.

-What did they say?

They were proud of me and they said "well done" to me.

The hardest thing for me is not having some independence.

Riley was born with cerebral palsy.

So it's hard for him to do many of the things other kids can.

But he's got big ambition.

I want to drive a car.

If we can get it working, you're going to be controlling technology

through your eyes. You can, without touching an object,

be able to move an object.

At the moment, Riley speaks using a special computer

he controls with his eye movements.

Jordan has adapted that tech to allow Riley to control

things around his house.

Now it's time for Riley to really put the tech to the test.

He's going to use it to try to drive. So, here it goes.

ENGINE STARTS CHEERING

Nice. Keep it straight, keep it straight.

Keep it straight.

-Yes!

-This has been the best experience of my life.

Well done, headline heroes.

Now it's almost time to put away our notebooks for another month.

But before we do, here is what happened

when Newsround took on Arthur. Take it away.

# Hey, what a wonderful kind of day Hey!

-# Every day

-when

-you're

-walking

-the

-# Everybody

-# And

-I say

-hey,

-# Where

-you

-can

-learn,

-work

-and

-play

-# And

-get

-along

-with

-each

-other.

Well, that's it, folks.

We've squeezed a whole month's worth of Newsround

into one perfect portion.

But don't forget, we are back with our usual

Whoops I Missed The Bus next week.

But for now, this is Jenny signing off.
