US manufacturer General Motors is retiring the Holden brand, a decision which will cost hundreds of jobs and mean the end of a much-loved Aussie icon. Supermarket giant Woolworths has announced a plan to try to reduce the amount of plastic wrapping on fruit and veggies. Learn about Anne Frank and how her diary has taught generations of young people about the horrors of the Holocaust. Meet some school kids who are getting a lesson in beatboxing from a group of pros.
