The Quest for… Pirates

Invite our buccaneering pirate to lead your children on a daring quest. Going back in time to 1680, your children will find out what it was like to be part of a pirate crew. They will raise the Jolly Roger; travel around the Caribbean Seas; care for their ship, search for ‘booty’, avoid capture by the Navy, and seek safe harbour.

Faced with a series of dramatic challenges, your children must prove their bravery and expertise in order to become pirates themselves. Will they have what it takes
