Training

Our youngest and newest section, Arran Squirrels, have been getting into the radio spirit this week by producing their own jingles as part of a radio-themed evening. The four-to-six-year-olds learned all about what it takes to run a radio station - just like Thre3-6ix. They created their own weather forecasts (please send us some more springtime sunshine!), read out the news, chose their favourite songs and created their own Thre3-6ix Radio jingles. You'll hear some of their songs and their jingles during our 36-hour radio show - so be sure to tune in. There will probably be a few appearance from one or two Squirrels live on the air! Yes - live Squirrels on the radio - we can't wait! In the meantime, check out one of their jingle-tastic efforts below!

You cant have a radio show without guest, Chris has been busy setting up interviews sending many emails, from people in Pangbourne, to organisations in Australia (well we do have to broadcast all night, through to LA! Yes really, the LA in America! Interviews are starting to get booked up in advance, and the explorers will be out over the coming weeks pre-recording interviews with those who can't make it on the weekend, great practice for when they need to do it live! Who would you like us to interview? And what about?

Our Explorers were given a radio masterclass by @scoutradio for their first evening of summer term ahead of our 36-hour show in a few weeks time. They learn the importance of knowing what your going to say before speaking and played radio themed memory games. Before thinking about how you would fill just 1 hour of radio, and what makes a good interview. So that's 1 hour of radio planned, 35 hours to go, well kind of, we did split them into a few groups, so about 6 planned! Please consider donating to our great cause, or visiting the 36 Radio Festival Weekend.
