EARLY learners are in for a treat today when a musical juggernaut rolls into town.
The Musical Maze - a giant, mass of pipes, chimes, drums and percussion pieces - will pay its first visit to a Washington School in Spout Lane, Washington, this morning.
The maze aims to introduce youngsters to music.
The project was funded by the Toy Library Network and the Music Standards Fund. It will be offered on loan to nurseries and reception classes across Wearside.
Stephen Auster, of Sunderland City Council, said: "The design was first demonstrated to us a few years ago and we liked it so much, we bought the intellectual copyright to recreate two of our own."
