Bristol,

I'm a wooden boatbuilder, who specialises in building lightweight, skin-on-frame boats and runs kayak & canoe-building courses. Designing and making simple, beautiful and usable boats gives me huge satisfaction. At school and university I always had access to workshops. I grew up kayaking in Devon, then much further afield (Nepal, British Columbia, The Alps...). They were the things I enjoyed the most. But after graduating with an MA from the Royal College of Art, I didn’t set foot in a workshop for over a decade. I worked in a digital world, designing good experiences for people on the web. I set up my own company and taught design at university. At weekends and in the evenings, I did up a couple of VW vans, and worked on our family home. When a friend died from cancer I knew life was too short, and I had to get back in the workshop and on the water. Looking to weave together a life-long love of kayaking, design and craftsmanship, I moved to Lyme Regis and enrolled to train at The Boat Building Academy. When I returned to Bristol in 2015, the Underfall Yard had just re-opened some of their historic workshops with Lottery Funding and I took on a unit. It’s now a place to make boats that I can be proud of, that people use and that will last. It’s a satisfying reward when I help people build a boat and they say “I made that!” Whether you build a boat, or I build it for you, it would be my pleasure to help you climb aboard your very own Shipshape boat.

The CIS Approach WE LEARN lessons from the past and look to the future but live in the present. WE EMBRACE a shared English language and Slovak culture but are a model of international best practice. WE ARE AMBITIOUS and determined, but define ourselves by our actions, not just by words. WE ARE CONFIDENT in ourselves, but value most the quality of our relationships and the strength of our community. WE ARE WELL INTENTIONED, we forgive and we search for the best in ourselves and others. Our motto is simple but clear: "Inspire and Aspire" WE ENGAGE our students and they engage with the world around them. This motto gives purpose to all of our endeavours. As CIS educators, we all offer our very best to each single one of our students, regardless of age or ability, and in return, we expect them to try to become the very best version of their unique selves and to fulfil their potential wherever their skills and interests lie. It is also underpinned by the three-way partnership of Home and School, with the student at the centre, guided, but confident in their own direction. As lifelong learners, our whole community espouse the learner qualities of creativity, curiosity, kindness, independence, reflection, respect and resilience, which through our associated values, help us to climb the Learning Mountain together, but with the skills and attitudes to travel alone in the future. We are proud to be unique. We are proud to be different. We are proud to be Cambridge International School.
