In the top story Reem went along to the launch of Incredible Edibles. It's the AgriAware campaign where schools are given packs and information to grow their own food!
She was in Kilcloon National School in County Meath where the students told her all about how important it is to eat fruit and veg! Some of Meath's All-Ireland winning players were there too, and you bet they know all about healthy eating!!
Schools can register for Incredible Edible here!
There is a round-up of local and international stories too. Staying closer to home we visit the National Botanic Gardens in Dublin to find out about what seed saving is and why it is so important for the future.
Have you ever seen an armadillo? They are little mammals who have a hard 'shell'. Let's go to Oregon Zoo to meet one of the species that rolls into a little ball for protection.
