• Millions without schools
Presenter:
There are around 58 million children in the world who do not go to
school.
A report by UNESCO, which is part of the United Nations, has looked at
education in different countries.
It is a big problem in parts of Africa, where many girls do not go to
school.
Although 58 million is a big number, a lot has been done to get more
children to school.
In 2000, 164 countries made a promise to improve the situation. Then,
around 200 million children did not go to school.
The main reasons kids in some countries do not get an education is war
and poverty.

• An asteroid named Malala
Presenter:
Malala Yousafzai has won the Nobel Peace Prize and lots of other
important awards.
Now, she is going to have an asteroid named after her.
An American scientist discovered a new asteroid. She found out that not
many asteroids are named after women.

That’s why she called it Malala.
Malala Yousafzai is 17 years old and has become famous for speaking
about how important education is to young people. She was the
youngest person ever to win the Nobel Peace Prize in 2014.
• Banknotes for the blind
Presenter:
A blind teenager from Australia is helping to change the country’s money
– there will be new banknotes with braille on them.
Connor McLeod, who is 13 years old, says it’s difficult to know how much
money you have when you are blind. Listen to what he said to ABC news
in Australia.
Connor McLeod:
Telling the difference between coins is easier than telling the difference
between notes. Sometimes I get a bit nervous in shops when I pay for
things with notes, so I need a bit of help.
Presenter:
He wanted banknotes in Australia to have braille on them – and he asked
people on social media to join his campaign. Listen to what he says.
Connor McLeod:
We got just over 57,000 signatures, which is way more than we
expected, and the best part is all our hard work paid off.
Presenter:
It was a success; the bank in Australia has promised to add braille to
banknotes in the future.

• Emojis for everyone
Presenter:
There are lots of new emojis for you to use when you send an sms.
Emojis are the little pictures you can add to a text message.
Now there are emojis of people with different skin colours.

The BBC asked kids in the UK what they thought about them.
“I think it’s really good because if you meet someone, you can show them
what you look like by just clicking on it.”
It’s a good idea that there are lots of different emojis because you can
choose the one that’s right for yourself.”
The new emojis were added because some people complained there
weren’t any that looked like them.
