With the Explorers teachers training,
Seventy-five strong went with the tide —
Eager, inspired, side by side.
Unveiling maths in shells,
STEM in shifting sand dunes,
Poetry in rock pools.
Around the coast
from Wicklow to Donegal
They let the shoreline
Bring learning to life.
They uncovered the many facets
Of marine education
And watched it shine
Across the curriculum.
Now ready for the journey ahead,
With ocean wisdom shared and spread.
Making the sea their classroom door,
To teach, inspire and explore!🐚
