Pirate Half Term Feb 21st – 25th
If your children are getting on top of you and are wondering what to do with them this half term then get them to ‘Walk the Plank’ at the Fleet Air Arm Museum. From Monday 21st to Friday 25th Feb, children are encouraged to come in fancy dress and speak like pirates.
There will be pirate related activities throughout the Museum including a stage show and sing-along with Johnny ‘Deep’, a Capin’ Jack Sparrow look alike and his scurvy shipmates.
You’ll be taught how to make a cutlass, telescope & eye patch and Capin ‘Orrible will give you elocution lessons on how to speak proper Pirate.
And if you have a favourite Pirate joke, then be prepared to try and put a smile on the evil captain’s face.
The museum is located on the B3151 just off the A303 and A37. It is accessible from the M5 motorway, junction 25 at Taunton, via the A358 and A303.
Yeovilton is situated some seven miles north of Yeovil, forty miles south of Bristol, thirty miles north of Weymouth and thirty miles south east of Weston-Super-Mare.
