The Mash of the Month for April is Purple Chip, our app which allows students to control an external device using code created in Purple Mash's 2Code Purple Chip tool.

We're thrilled to announce that the much-loved and iconic Alexandra Palace in North London has become our latest Mash Partner! Mash Partners are experts in their fields who deliver educational programmes outside the classroom. Thanks to funding from the National Heritage Lottery Fund, we’ve worked with the Creative Learning Team at Alexandra Palace to create an innovative and engaging 6-week project.

The Purple Mash Taskmasher competition gave children the chance to design their own Taskmaster style task! We had loads of brilliant, hilarious, and wonderfully weird task ideas sent in by pupils worldwide—and choosing the best ones was no easy job. Every entry showed just how creative, clever, and delightfully silly young Taskmasters can be.
