0:05:39 > 0:05:43- On the way back, she said, - "Thanks so much for doing this."
0:05:45 > 0:05:47- There was no need to worry.
0:05:50 > 0:05:51- Do you want to do it next year?
0:05:51 > 0:05:54- Do you want to do it next year?- - 10k next year.

0:06:27 > 0:06:31- They write the story as if it - were true and in the newspaper.

0:06:37 > 0:06:41- Mrs Jones says we need - a good beginning and ending.
0:06:41 > 0:06:44- We also need a headline at the top.
0:06:45 > 0:06:47- The headline will catch your eye.
0:06:47 > 0:06:50- It makes you want - to read the article.
0:06:50 > 0:06:53- My paper is called - the Anglesey Weekly.

0:07:04 > 0:07:07- Seeing things clearly - is difficult for Ela.
0:07:07 > 0:07:09- Sometimes, she needs help.
0:07:09 > 0:07:13- She's learning how to use Braille.
0:07:13 > 0:07:18- Braille is a form of reading and - writing. It's a good skill to have.
0:07:20 > 0:07:24- You read Braille by feeling the dots - with the tip of your finger.
0:07:25 > 0:07:30- You use a special machine - to make dots on the paper.
0:07:32 > 0:07:34- You see Braille dots everywhere.
0:07:35 > 0:07:38- You might have seen dots on signs.
0:07:38 > 0:07:41- This is how it works.
0:07:41 > 0:07:43- Press the different buttons.
0:07:43 > 0:07:45- This is how dots are produced.
0:07:48 > 0:07:53- Place your finger on the dots - to feel the different letters.
0:07:56 > 0:07:59- It takes time to learn - how to do it properly.
0:07:59 > 0:08:03- You've done a lot more for me - than I did for you.
0:08:06 > 0:08:08- G. What's this?
0:08:08 > 0:08:09- G. What's this?- - That's fun.
0:08:20 > 0:08:22- It's a good thing.
0:08:22 > 0:08:27- If your eyes are tired, - you can still read.
0:08:27 > 0:08:29- I like learning how to do Braille.
0:08:37 > 0:08:40- I have another machine - that helps me read.
0:08:40 > 0:08:43- It makes the letters larger.
0:08:43 > 0:08:45- Sizzling.
0:08:46 > 0:08:48- Steaming.
0:08:49 > 0:08:52- I can also type - without looking at the keyboard.
0:08:52 > 0:08:56- I need to remember - where the letters are located.
0:09:11 > 0:09:17- After a day at school, - Lyn is giving Ela a piano lesson.
0:09:18 > 0:09:22- More dots, but these are different - dots. They're musical notes.
0:09:33 > 0:09:38- Before running five kilometres, - Ela felt very nervous.
0:09:38 > 0:09:42- She knows now that things - are never as bad as you fear.
0:09:42 > 0:09:45- If you do things right - and learn the right way...
0:09:46 > 0:09:48- ..learning new skills - is the way to go.
0:09:49 > 0:09:52- Skills such as reading music - and reading Braille.
0:09:52 > 0:09:55- Always be ready - to give something a go.
0:10:00 > 0:10:06- Today, on her big day, Ela's heading - to an underground cave.
0:10:06 > 0:10:10- Ela's in an old slate quarry - in Blaenau Ffestiniog.
0:10:11 > 0:10:13- It's an adventure centre.
0:10:13 > 0:10:16- These people are on the zip wire.
0:10:16 > 0:10:18- Wahey!
0:10:21 > 0:10:24- They hit something on the wire - and slow down.
0:10:28 > 0:10:32- Ela's getting ready - for her adventure.
0:10:32 > 0:10:34- I feel excited.
0:10:34 > 0:10:39- The family will bounce underground - in Bounce Below.
0:10:48 > 0:10:53- It gets darker and darker - as they go further underground.
0:11:02 > 0:11:06- When you're there, your surrounded - by all kinds of nets.
0:11:08 > 0:11:09- I'm a little bit scared!
0:11:10 > 0:11:14- You can bounce and slide down here.
0:11:14 > 0:11:16- It's difficult to walk here.
0:11:16 > 0:11:22- It's also difficult to see, - especially for someone like Ela.
0:11:24 > 0:11:31- Is there anyone there?
0:11:31 > 0:11:32- Are you out?
0:11:32 > 0:11:34- Are you out?- - It's amazing.
0:11:38 > 0:11:41- Bouncing is fun - but I'm not sure about the slide.
0:11:41 > 0:11:43- It's a bit scary.
0:11:44 > 0:11:47- When you get to the bottom, - it's not scary at all.
0:11:48 > 0:11:52- Mam didn't like going - down the slides.
0:11:55 > 0:11:58- Then you bounce and walk - to the bottom.
0:11:59 > 0:12:01- It's a big net.
0:12:01 > 0:12:03- You walk across it.
0:12:05 > 0:12:09- Dad had a great time. - He was like a little boy.
0:12:09 > 0:12:13- He would jump into the slides.
0:12:13 > 0:12:15- It's very cold at the bottom.
0:12:15 > 0:12:20- You're all the way underground.
0:12:26 > 0:12:29- Then you just bounce and bounce - and bounce.
0:12:29 > 0:12:33- It makes you laugh. - It's a lot of fun.
0:12:38 > 0:12:41- I'll tell my friends - it's a lot of fun.
0:12:41 > 0:12:44- It didn't make me feel ill.
0:12:44 > 0:12:48- There are nets everywhere - it's - more difficult than a trampoline.
0:12:48 > 0:12:52- I fell over a couple of times. - It was hard getting up again.
0:12:56 > 0:12:58- I want to carry on bouncing!
0:13:05 > 0:13:05- .
