Talk Like a Pirate Day is Childhood Cancer Support's biggest fundraising and awareness initiative. It is dedicated to raising awareness of the impacts that childhood cancer has on families while raising vital funds for the organisation.

The three classes enjoyed pirate-themed learning activities and enjoyed stories and games linked to PDHPE, Visual Arts and English.

Childhood Cancer Support is a children's cancer charity that was formed in 1975 when a group of desperate parents, with children being treated for leukaemia and cancer, met to discuss ways of helping each other and their children.

Childhood cancers and leukaemia are distinctly different from their adult forms and, recognising this, these visionaries identified the need to help children that had been diagnosed.
