Students came to school dressed as pirates as part of a fundraiser for The Kids’ Cancer Project, an organisation that supports children’s brain cancer research.
Activities on the day included making pirate ships out of recycled materials.
Mitchells Island Public School principal Michelle Wilson said all student got into the spirit of the day.
"The children have all dressed up and I bet there is plenty that will have to walk the plank,” Ms Wilson said.
The Kids’ Cancer Project collaborates with scientists to fund research into childhood cancer.
The organisation has invested more than $34 million into research projects.
