Students from The Cranbrook School worked with poets Tom Lee and Astrid Lorange to create new poems that respond to The Red Room Company's public project The Disappearing. The Disappearing is a new free app for iPad, iPhone and Android devices that geo-locates poems to place. It offers students an authentic publication mode for both poetry and descriptive writing that explores and maps ideas and memories of place. Workshops utilising The Disappearing learning kit allow participants to interact with this free live app and explore learning resources that address multimodal requirements of the Australian Curriculum: English.

As part of the workshop, both poets composed a poem especially for the school. You can read Astrid's poem, 'Silvery', and Tom's poem, 'Crankbrook, Mid June', on the Red Room website (or read in playlist above).
