Cashel Student Receives Prestigious Fr Tom Burke Bursary at National Science Exhibition

409

A gifted Cashel student has earned national recognition after being awarded one of the most prestigious special prizes at this year’s Stripe Young Scientist & Technology Exhibition (StripeYSTE). Oisín Howley was presented with the Fr Tom Burke Bursary, a highly respected award that celebrates excellence in scientific communication. The Fr Tom Burke Bursary is regarded as one of the most significant honours at the exhibition, ranking among the largest awards outside of the top overall category winners. It is presented to the individual or group participant deemed by judges to be the best communicator during the event. Unlike awards that focus solely on scientific results or innovation, this bursary places strong emphasis on how clearly and confidently students can explain their work. Judges assess the participant’s ability to communicate complex ideas in an accessible and engaging way, while demonstrating a deep understanding of their research and its relevance. The award is a founder’s bursary and honours the legacy of Rev. Dr Tom Burke, recognising not only academic excellence but also the vital role communication

Oisin’s achievement has been warmly welcomed in Cashel, where pride in his success extends beyond the exhibition hall. He was supported throughout his project by his teacher, Mr TJ Quinn, who was praised for his guidance, encouragement, and commitment to nurturing scientific curiosity and confidence in students. StripeYSTE is one of Ireland’s most important platforms for young innovators, promoting critical thinking, creativity, and problem solving among second level students. Receiving a bursary of this standing highlights not just scientific ability, but leadership, confidence, and the capacity to inspire others. The award shines a positive spotlight on Cashel’s next generation of talent and reflects the strong educational support available to students locally. Congratulations were extended to Oisín Howley on receiving this very special honour, which marks a significant milestone in his academic journey and points toward a bright future.

Clonmel Loses One of Its Own “Until we meet again we’ll see you on the dark side of the moon, Clonmel remembers Matt Kennedy a legend rides on”

Clonmel Town was deeply saddened by the passing of Matt Kennedy, Morton Place, and formerly of The Bungalow, Kickham Street, Clonmel, Co. Tipperary, who died peacefully on Monday, 5th January 2026, in Tipperary University Hospital. Predeceased by his parents, Mattie and Peggy, Matt is lovingly remembered and sadly missed by his daughter Rebecca, his adored grandson Darragh, son in law Grant, sister Sandra, brothers Pat, Bill and John, sisters in law Honora and Liz, brother in law Pat, his nephews, nieces, extended family, and a wide circle of friends. Matt Kennedy was one of Clonmel’s most recognisable and well loved figures. His popularity was evident in the remarkable number of people who attended his funeral to pay their respects. A happy go lucky man with an easy manner, Matt always had time to stop and chat with anyone he met and, as many remarked, he seemed to know everyone in the town. He was also a hugely respected member of the biker community, where his lifelong passion for motorcycles, particularly vintage bikes, was widely known. Large numbers of bikers turned out to honour him, forming a guard of honour on his final journey. The cortege was led by his brother Bill, who rode one of Matt’s treasured vintage BSA motorcycles a fitting tribute to a man whose love of bikes was central to his life. Matt’s knowledge of BSA motorcycles was legendary. It was often said that what Matt did not know about BSAs was not worth know-

ing. His enthusiasm extended to vintage cars and memorabilia, and he was a dedicated vintage enthusiast. I think one time he had a collection of over 17 vintage Renaults. Travelling to car boot sales and vintage markets was one of his greatest pleasures, a pastime he shared closely with his brother Bill, whom he fondly described as his “partner in crime. Many locals recalled meeting Matt regularly at the vintage car market in particular Castleinch, Kilkenny, where he was a familiar and welcome sight. This passion was reflected symbolically during the funeral Mass, when his grandson Darragh brought a toy bus to the altar one of the many items Matt had collected during his visits to car boot markets. His daughter Rebecca brought forward a framed photograph of Matt on his motorbike, representing his deep love for motorcycling. A moving tribute was delivered by Matt’s brother Pat, who spoke warmly of Matt’s devotion to his daughter Rebecca and his grandson Darragh, who meant everything to him. Although Rebecca now lives in Australia, Matt remained closely connected to his family through regular Zoom and FaceTime calls, particularly cherishing his conversations with his grandson. Pat expressed the family’s heartfelt gratitude for the kindness, support, and genuine affection shown to them since Matt’s passing. “The love shown to Matt and to us has been overwhelming,” he said. “Matt had an army of friends, and we thank each and every one of you for the support

you have given our family.” Pat acknowledged that in the few minutes available, it was impossible to fully capture the unique character and personality that was Matt Kennedy. He shared a memory from the day Matt was born, when he and his sister Sandra were taken to Nellie Drohan’s shop for sweets, only to return home to find their mother Peggy had a new little bundle of joy, a quiet, unannounced arrival typical of the time. That small bundle grew into Matt, their mother’s blue eyed boy, about whom there was never a bad word said and none would be said now. Not long afterwards, Bill was born, and he and Matt developed a lifelong bond a special and unique relationship unlike any of the other siblings shared. Though very different in personality, the two were inseparable. Matt’s love of motorbikes began in his teenage years, shortly before he left school. School did not suit him, but once he found a job, he was allowed to leave. His early working life included making number plates at O’Donoghue’s in Irishtown, a job that ended when a trolley of batteries fell on his foot. He later worked delivering telegrams for the post office, some of which, Pat recalled with humour, were delivered, while others were famously discovered under Matt’s bed. Pat also spoke of working alongside Matt in Scotland for about six months when Matt was just fifteen or sixteen years old, which were great times before passing the story on to their youngest brother John. John spoke of how, six years ago, Matt made a new start in life with

the support of close friends and family. He fondly recalled the famous days of The Bungalow years filled with unforgettable memories, stories, and laughter. Bikes, 175s, Granadas, Bill Purcell’s, Matt’s shed, cattle trucks these were the elements of their lives at the time, and stories from those years were endlessly filled with treasured memories. Matt loved life, sometimes a little too much, but always in his own way. He was an individual indeed, as John described him, “the most individual of individuals.” When it was time to leave somewhere, it was time to leave. he had razor sharp wit and impeccable comic timing. He had a remarkable ability to tell a bad joke and still have people in stitches simply by the way he delivered it. Even in his final days, his humour remained intact. John recalled

sitting with Matt on St Stephen’s Day, watching a David Attenborough documentary on the Amazon rainforest. After a long silence, Matt looked up at the television and remarked that the green and yellow tree frogs looked exactly like John Deere tractors. John spoke of Matt’s exceptional touch with things and with people, whether spraying a kitchen press, cutting an awkward angle in a tight space, or kick starting his beloved BSA motorcycle. Matt never liked Nortons, John noted, as the kick start was too heavy for him. However, his greatest gift was his touch with people. He had time for everyone, and if he took to you, you were in, he made people feel valued and special. Matt was deeply loved by all who knew him, and it was considered a privilege to call him a friend.

He loved Clonmel passionately. John often remarked that if Matt ever left Clonmel, someone would need to tie a string around his waist so he could find his way home. He knew everyone, and everyone knew him, a fact reflected in the four hour queue of mourners at O’Donoghue’s funeral home. In recent years, Matt had been rebuilding friendships, making a point of visiting people, taking trips to Kilsheelan or the Nire Valley on his bike with a cup of coffee in his bag, or heading to the Rag Well to dip his feet in the stream with friends. He was deeply affected by the loss of many close friends and family members over the years, including his parents and friends such as Deckie Shaw, Dringin Ryan, and Tina Looby, among others. Above all, Matt loved his family

deeply his brothers, sister, nieces, nephews, and cousins. He was immensely proud of his daughter Rebecca, his “sweetheart,” and of his grandson Darragh, affectionately known as “Auld Frosty.” He shared a close and warm relationship with his son in law Grant, and the time they spent together on FaceTime is now recognised as precious beyond measure. The family take comfort in knowing that Rebecca and Darragh have a loving husband and father in Grant to look after them, and Matt can rest easy known the same.They carry memories that will last a lifetime. Following Matt’s passing, an outpouring of tributes appeared on social media, offering a powerful testament to the affection in which he was held and to the lasting impression he made on so many lives. Friends from every chapter of his life shared memories that echoed the same

themes again and again kindness, humour, generosity of spirit, and a lifelong passion for all things mechanical. Many extended their deepest condolences to the Kennedy family, describing Matt as one of life’s gentlest souls, kind hearted, funny, and a loveable rogue who embraced everyone he met. His enthusiasm for motors, motor cars, and motorbikes was frequently recalled, as was his natural ease among people. One contributor fondly remembered childhood visits to Bill Purcell’s Bicycle Shop, a place where Matt was often to be found, recalling how their late father, Mick Flynn, affectionately dubbed “the Flings” by Matt would bring them there to buy a new bicycle. These memories, shared decades later, spoke of a time, a place, and a community shaped by characters like Matt. Others expressed deep sadness at

the news of his death, remembering him as a thorough gentleman and recalling happy times spent in McCarthy’s, Paddy Crean’s pub, and other familiar Clonmel gathering places. Stories flowed easily of laughter, long conversations, and friendships forged over pints and shared company. Several spoke of journeys taken together, including memorable trips up the country in Matt’s green Mk1 Ford Granada, adventures that remain vivid in the minds of those who shared them. Friends from the 1980s recalled Matt as a constant source of laughter and companionship, a man whose character never changed with time. Even those who had moved away from Clonmel maintained contact with him through social media, valuing the connection and the sense of continuity Matt represented. Again and again, contributors remarked that he was a true Clonmel

character decent, friendly, and genuine unchanged from his early days in Bill Purcell’s to his later years. Former school friends described him as a legend who remained exactly as he always was, a character, a rogue, and a gentleman in equal measure. His bond with his beloved BSA motorcycle was recalled with affection, many remarking that man and machine were perfectly matched, and that Matt was never happier than when he was out for a spin, enjoying the open road. More personal farewells followed words such as “me auld pal,” “me auld china,” and “see ya next time” reflecting the deep familiarity and affection felt by those who knew him best. One tribute noted that Matt could brighten anyone’s day with a simple conversation, and that it was hard to imagine he ever had an enemy in the world. Another spoke of evenings spent “skulling pints and shooting the breeze,” moments now treasured as lasting memories of a friendship that brought joy and ease. Clonmel, many said, has lost a genuine and caring gentleman, one of its finest sons. As Matt’s brother John concluded his eulogy, he echoed a sentiment that resonated deeply with all who had gathered and with those watching from afar, that while Matt may have taken his leave, he would never truly be gone. His wit, his warmth, his individuality, and his unmistakable presence remain woven into the fabric of the town he loved so dearly until next time, when paths cross again, somewhere on the dark side of the moon. Clonmel is at loss now without Matt Kennedy. His familiar presence, his easy conversation, and his gentle humour will be deeply missed in the streets, shops, and meeting places where he was once such a constant figure. For many, it is difficult to accept that he will no longer appear around a corner, stop for a chat, or pass by on his motorbike with a knowing

The late Matt Kennedy. smile and a friendly wave. His absence leaves a profound sense of loss, not only for his family, who loved him beyond measure, but for a town that claimed him as its own. Matt belonged to Clonmel, and Clonmel belonged to Matt. The stories, laughter, and friendships he shared now live on only in memory, carried quietly by those who were fortunate enough to know him. As the days move on and life resumes its rhythm, the space left by Matt’s passing remains. It will be felt in the silences, in the places he once filled so effortlessly,

and in the hearts of all who called him friend. He leaves behind a town in mourning, a family grieving deeply, and memories that are cherished all the more because they can never be made again. Clonmel has lost one of its own and the sadness of that loss will linger for a long time to come. All of us at The Tipp Echo wish to extend our sincere and heartfelt condolences to Matt’s family, relatives, and wide circle of friends at this very sad time. May Matt rest in perfect peace.

Deputy Michael Murphy said all new proposals for new-build social housing projects up to €200 million will move to a single approval process and replace the current 4-stage. The new system will also introduce standardised design and

class standards they uphold every day. Any trade agreement must be fair, sustainable and compatible with our environmental goals. “In its current form, the Mercosur deal does not meet those standards.” Deputy Michael Murphy said that Ireland’s position sends a clear message at EU level that economic opportunity cannot come at the expense of human health, rural livelihoods or climate responsibility.

specifications across all projects. These reforms will cut delays, streamline delivery and accelerate the construction of new social homes. Deputy Michael Murphy said: “This new single approval process will remove unnecessary delays and create a clearer, faster pathway for delivering social homes. “Standardised design and specifications will drive greater efficiency, improve consistency and ensure better value for money, meaning more high‑quality homes can be delivered

sooner for those who need them. “For communities, this means homes are delivered sooner and for the State, it means better value for money. “Fine Gael has been clear that delivery is what matters most and reforming how we plan, approve and build social housing is central to that commitment. “This is about practical reform, real delivery and meeting the housing needs of families now and into the future,” concluded Deputy Michael Murphy. This Government’s Housing Action Plan – Delivering Homes, Building

Communities – provides clear targets for local authorities to scale-up social housing delivery, increasing from an average of 8,000 over recent years to an average of 12,000 per year, delivering 72,000 new social homes during the lifetime of the plan. This streamlined approval process will remove the requirement for additional detailed submissions for review and approval throughout the project lifecycle; and lead to quicker sign off on project proposals from the Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage.
