Newsround P.1/2

We have been watching Newsround again. There was a really big storm called Cyclone Pam. It has torn down trees and smashed houses. Some bricks and houses have been torn apart. The wind has blown off roofs. The people there need food and clean water and new homes. They also need medicine, and socks and pants and pyjamas! Different countries are sending them help, like Britain.

In a country called Syria there is a war. People have been fighting each other and some people have escaped. They went to other countries beside Syria like Jordan and Lebanon. They live in camps, and they are starting to get to go to school. We think this will make them happier, and we think its good because they will get to learn new words and they will learn to write like us.

People are going to the beach to see what has been thrown or ended up in the water. They have found plastic bags, bottles, lids from Smarties tubes, and little toys. We already knew about this because Emily brought a man who has the same job as the lady on Newsround and he talked with us. He had found lots of rubber ducks, and footballs. It is bad because fish and sharks and turtles might think they are food and eat them. They might end up poorly or they might die.

6 people were stuck on the top of a rollercoaster for three hours in Australia. The fire engine came and had to help them down. Miss McGregor says she got stuck at the top of the PepsiMax for 2 hours. She says it wasn’t that scary. All the people were OK and got down safely.
