The Marine Institute's Explorers Education Programme is thrilled to announce its return to schools for the 2025-2026 school year, with an expansion that will bring marine-themed education to both coastal and inland counties across Ireland. This new nationwide reach is a testament to the program's success and growing demand for ocean literacy. "This expansion marks a significant milestone for the program, which has successfully delivered marine-themed educational content for nearly two decades," said Ms. Patricia Orme, Director of Corporate Services at the Marine Institute. "The sustained success of the Explorers Education Programme is a testament to its engaging and impactful approach to teaching students about our vital marine environment and supporting teachers in creating ocean literacy in the classroom. "We are delighted to support this expansion, reaching some inland counties through interactive online workshops and the continued development of our educational resources that are available to all schools online. This underscores our commitment to ensuring all young people are engaged in valuing and understanding the ocean's influence on our lives, and our impact on the ocean," she said. Dr. Noirin Burke from the Explorers Outreach Team, who will be leading the delivery to primary schools in inland counties, is particularly enthusiastic about this new chapter. "We are super excited to see the Explorers Education Programme expand to inland counties, bringing a wave of ocean literacy across the country," Dr. Burke noted. "Having grown up in Co. Tipperary, I understand how someone who lives away from the coast can still be passionate about the shoreline and spending time at the water. With nowhere in Ireland being far from the sea, an online interactive school module is a fantastic way of connecting students to our marine heritage and identity, and we are looking forward to exploring the ocean with all the schools we meet throughout the year." In addition to the online expansion, the Explorers Programme also welcomes eight new team members to its network, that will be providing outreach delivery to coastal counties all around Ireland. Cat and David McCann will be delivering the Explorers programme in Donegal, while new team members in Kerry, Elis Martineili and Dalia Alnajar, will also be delivering a range of marine-themed projects in schools in Limerick. New team members Claire Law and Lauren Cahill-Quinn in Cork, and Lauren Minion, Brian Parle, Angeleen Leckie-James and Rianna Carroll will be delivering in other key coastal counties around Ireland. Drawing on extensive backgrounds in both marine science and the primary school curriculum, these new and existing teams will provide teachers with expertise and support for a variety of engaging class projects and seashore safaris. Explorers project modules such as Learning about Squid, Fintastic Sharks, Turtle Talk with Sea Turtles, as well as The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly - Deep-sea Species, are some of the favourite modules delivered by the team, with new content being launched throughout the next couple of months. The coastal teams will also offer hands-on experiences, from seashore adventures to bringing the seashore to the classroom with aquarium modules, also being extended in counties in Dublin and Wicklow. For further enquiries about making bookings with the Explorers team, please visit www.explorers.ie or make enquiries at: http://bit.ly/3HQMXA0. The Explorers Education Programme is funded by the Marine Institute and managed by Camden Education and Galway Atlantaquaria. The teams delivering the program include Galway Atlantaquaria, The Sea Collective, Leave No Trace - Ireland, Sea Synergy, Old Cork Waterworks Experience, Oceanics Surf School, and Seashorekids.

Fáilte ar ais chuig eagrán nua de Ar An Lá Seo ar an 4ú lá de mí Mheán Fómhair, liomsa Lauren Ní Loingsigh. I 1971 ghortaíodh dhá dhuine agus trí Gharda nuair a tharla pléasc I mBéal Feirste. I 1980 tháinig sé amach go mbeadh na líne fón idir Baile Átha Cliath agus an chuid eile den tír níos fearr tar éis an Nollaig. I 2000 bhí plean nua ann chun athrú a chur ar nDurlas chuig baile siopadóireacht agus go mbeadh sé maoinithe le táillí páirceáil. Tháinig sé amach go raibh daoine ag iarradh páirceáil a bheith coiscthe ag Liberty Square. Bhí an talamh in ainm an Eaglais Chaitliceach in aice le Abhainn na Súire agus dúirt an chomhairle go raibh siad ag iarradh píosa talamh do pháirceáil sa bhaile. I 2001 bhí Durlas agus Baile Thiobraid Árann in iomaíocht lena chéile chun dílárú a fháil faoi chlár nua don Rialtas. Sin Olly Murs le Please Don't Let Me Go – an t-amhrán is mó ar an lá seo I 2010. Ag lean ar aghaidh le nuacht cheoil ar an lá seo I 1976 chuaigh The Sex Pistols ar an teilifís don chéad uair nuair a chuaigh siad ar an chlár teilifís So It Goes. I 2007 chan The Police a chéad dáta sa Bhreatain ar a teacht le chéile nuair a chan siad dhá oíche I Birmingham. Agus ar deireadh breithlá daoine cáiliúla ar an lá seo rugadh Mark Ronson sa Bhreatain I 1975 agus rugadh amhránaí Beyoncé I Meiriceá ar an lá seo I 1981 agus seo chuid de amhrán. Beidh mé ar ais libh amárach le heagrán nua de Ar An Lá Seo. Welcome back to another edition of Ar An Lá Seo on the 4th of September, with me Lauren Ní Loingsigh 1971: at least 2 civillians and 3 police officers were injured when 3 explosions ripped through an area of Belfast. 1980: It was reported that telephone links between Dublin and the rest of the country should improve after Christmas. 2000 - A NEW plan to transform the heart of Thurles into a modern shopping town should be funded from revenue generated by new parking charges being introduced in the town. Most on-street car parking should be banned in Liberty Square, and a major environmental plan should be launched. The Catholic Church, who own much of the land by the River Suir, should consider disposing of some of its lands to pave the way for the development public park for the town. They were the personal views of the president of the Chamber of Commerce, Gerry Clancy.  2001 - Two County Tipperary towns were forerunners in a bid to secure decentralisation.  Thurles and Tipperary town were believed to be hot favourites for decentralisation, under the Government's Programme, which is due before the cabinet.  That was Olly Murs with Please Don't Let Me Go – the biggest song on this day in 2010 Onto music news on this day In 1976 The Sex Pistols made their television debut when they appeared on the Manchester based Granada TV program 'So It Goes'. 2007 The Police played the first UK date on their Reunion tour when they played two nights at the National Indoor Arena in Birmingham, England.

This month on Tipperary's Hidden History, Conor takes us back to the early years of the Irish Free State. Even by 1931, while the bullets and landmines of the Civil War had long fallen silent there were still sporadic episodes of violence and murder. Tipperary town was visited by one such reminder of darker times when a young Garda superintendent returned home from work late one night in March. Thanks to an ambush at his gate he did not live to see the next morning.

A call for tougher action on rural road speeding has been made by an Ireland South MEP who says lives are being put at risk by excessive speeds in areas often overlooked by enforcement. New figures released to Cynthia Ní Mhurchú reveal that while Clare Gardaí collected just over €585,000 in speed van fines between January 2023 and June 2025, neighbouring counties like Tipperary and Limerick saw significantly higher returns—raising concerns about enforcement gaps. Meanwhile, over €44 million has been paid to private speed camera operators nationally during the same period, prompting questions about the cost-effectiveness of the current system. For more on this, Sally-Ann Barrett was joined by Ireland South MEP Cynthia Ní Mhurchú.

Last Saturday is a day that will be remembered in Galway GAA for a long time following the success of the Galway U15 and U16 Hurling teams in All-Ireland Finals.  The U15 team won the Arrabawn A Cup beating Tipperary by 4-12 to 3-8 and the U16 team followed suit with a 2-17 to 0-12 win over Tipperary in their final. Managers of the U15's Aidan Ryan and U16's Shane Cusack spoke to John Mulligan about their teams' successes.

When O'Connor's body was found buried beneath their kitchen floor, whispers of greed, betrayal, and hidden passions spread across London.

Ellen Coyne and Pat Leahy join Hugh Linehan to look back on the week in politics:· With Independent TD Catherine Connolly and former MEP Mairead McGuinness having declared their candidacy, there will now be at least two names in the race for the Áras. But with no sign yet of a clear candidate for Fianna Fáil or Sinn Féin, are any of the potential names currently being discussed likely to gain party support? · Fianna Fáil's Niall Collins would be 'very uncomfortable' with a one-size-fits-all approach to a blanket VAT cut for the hospitality sector, given that luxury and five-star hotels would benefit from a measure they don't necessarily need. Some Fine Gael Ministers are unhappy with Mr Collins for criticising a policy that would help support entry-level jobs in rural Ireland. · And as the humanitarian crisis deepens in Gaza, urgency around the Occupied Territories Bill increases. The inclusion of services is still the big question given the huge potential knock-on effects for some businesses here.

Cormac McQuinn and Jack Horgan-Jones join Pat Leahy to look back on the week in politics: · The latest Irish Times/Ipsos B&A opinion poll shows Sinn Féin on 22 per cent (down four), with Fianna Fáil on 22 per cent (no change) and Fine Gael on 17 per cent (up one). Given just 14% of voters feel Government is successfully tackling the country's problems, do Sinn Féin need to find a new strategy in order to stimulate support? · One of the most notable findings of the poll is the clear growth potential around the Independents (up five) and new conservative parties like Aontú. · The poll also shows that support for the Occupied Territories Bill is softening with voters as just one-fifth of voters (20 per cent) say the Bill should be passed quickly, with a further 14 per cent saying its scope should be expanded and it should be passed quickly. The Bill, which would ban trade in goods with the occupied Palestinian territories, is due before the Dáil in the autumn. Plus, the panel picks their favourite Irish Times pieces of the week:· The plans to lower the UK voting age to 16, the Epstein Files present a new crisis for Donald Trump, and can Tipperary triumph in the All-Ireland hurling final against Cork?
