The impact of Buoyed Up in the words and pictures of ..

the children

See what happened on the first experience of Buoyed Up at Kilcooley Primary in Bangor, Northern Ireland.

These are the interactive sessions called Meet The Skipper. Buoyed Up pupils have the chance to meet and hear from a person who has worked hard to achieve success in their chosen field. See what the skippers had to say.

our world of work partners

Buoyed Up pupils spend half a day at a maritime-related company or college to gain an insight into the many different skills, careers and opportunities connected with the sea. See what they discover.

our sailing partners

Five days of sailing are at the heart of the whole Buoyed Up experience, and it’s difficult to exaggerate the impact it has on the children.

our school partners

Buoyed Up relies on the support and enthusiasm of head teachers and class teachers. This is what Buoyed Up has been all about for them.

Testimonials

I have been so much better at not giving up and having a go.

Abi

,
It was one of the best experiences of my life and I would love to go again. The staff are kind and explain everything clearly.

Aleesha

,
A new skill I have developed is tying knots and not giving up.

Carla

,
I learned how to sail. It was scary at first but fun after. I am so proud that I capsized. It was really fun and we got to swim. I want to go back.

Chiara

,
The best thing I thought was the simulator because it felt like you’re on an actual boat

Dino

,
I achieved how to steer. And I couldn’t capsize because when I capsized I was panicking but the next day I capsized, I wasn’t panicking, I was okay.
