Since 1994 National Poetry Day has engaged millions of people with poetry through a range of live events and web-based activities for people throughout the United Kingdom. This year, we have decided to jump on board from the 2Simple South African office and take part in this great competition. Each year the day is given a new theme in order to highlight particular poets and styles of poetry. This Year's National Poetry Day is on the 6th October and the theme this year is The Environment.

Outdoor Learning is active learning where participants learn through what they do, through what they encounter and through what they discover. Participants learn about the outdoors, themselves and each other, while also developing outdoor skills.
We have created a range of activities to fully embed outdoor learning into the curriculum which can either be used in the classroom to build on learning and evaluate or to stimulate exploration and discovery outside.

Each month we highlight a #MashoftheMonth, focusing on a tool or application within Purple Mash and how it can be used within the classroom to support learning across the curriculum. During the month, if you share how, you have used the #MashoftheMonth, you will then be entered into a draw to win a 2Simple Goody Bag!
Our Mash of the Month for June is the recently updated 2Publish. This powerful, easy-to-use publishing tool really does bring learning to life. Teachers and pupils can access thousands of ready-made templates covering a huge range of cross-curricular content that you are able to tailor to your specific needs. There is even a blank template if you want to create something totally bespoke.
