Melbourne daycare centre replaces Santa with 'Sustainable Pirate' for Christmas

As Christmas is right around the corner a Melbourne daycare centre has reportedly stripped its end of the year celebrations by replacing Santa with a 'Sustainable Pirate'. The Kensington Community Children's Co-operative opted to bring in a pirate for all the kids and their parents to ensure that the event is inclusive for everyone. Swapping Santa with Pirate is not it as the daycare centre also chose to have a fresh food swap which will be low to zero fuel miles and organic. 

According to an international media outlet, the invite read, 'This year’s party will be a get-together picnic and fresh food swap for children and families to celebrate the end of the year. Sustainability Pirate will be attending and we will have a Nature Treasure Hunt. We are looking forward to seeing you at the celebration picnic'. It further read, 'The food will be low to zero fuel miles, organic, and no alcohol is allowed'. While talking to an international media outlet, one of the parents who weren't happy about the change said that all the parents who received the invitation on social media are a bit 'cranky' which has led to some heated opinion about Santa.
