Inner Tuba0
On Thursday 8th March the children enjoyed a highly entertaining and informative visit by Jon Hodkin, aka ‘Inner Tuba.’ Jon shared the trials and tribulations of his journey through Scotland on his recumbent tricycle and trailer with the children before introducing them to his favourite instrument, the tuba. Jon explained how sound is created and demonstrated that sound is created through vibration by playing the garden hose and letting the children feel the sound in the hose as he played.
The next half of the morning was spent outside as Jon explained how his bike and trailer worked and answered the many questions that the children had for him. Jon is now in the process of island hopping as he makes his way to the Western Isles where he is touring around all the primary schools.
