BAMBOO PIPES
Sir-I was very interested in the article in this week’s Listener on the use of bamboo pipes in the Feilding School. It seems, however, to give the impression that these pipes are a recent innovation in New Zealand, and I thought it might interest you to know that we made and learned to play them at school in 1936, since when the playing of bamboo pipes has been a regular subject in the school curriculum. In
1937 the NBS arranged a programme from the school, which included a number of pipe items. I am still playing the pipes I made, and now teach more than 50 pupils in my old school.-
