Only the scurviest dogs will be allowed to board the good ship "Sweaty Sock".

If you're at a Gateshead school, get your teachers to sign up for a Pirate Theme Day with us. Aye, me hearties, when we say Yo, you say Ho!

Then it's a fair wind set for derring-do, tales of doubloons, bleached skulls and marooning, not to mention Stories of Sealegs Ethel, the Terror of Torremolinos (allegedly).

Pirate Day at Clover Hill

This summer, Y2 had a pirate day! They created lots of fun poems. Here's one of them.

Yo ho ho, a pirate's life is for me
Yo ho ho, jammy dodgers for tea
Yo ho ho, dare ye walk the plank
Yo ho ho, what'cha don't fall in the tank
