The new mum was met with huge applause
as she entered the school hall with the schoolchildren clapping and
cheering for their royal visitor. After saying hello to the
children, the Duchess moved on to view the new ICAP Art Room.
The Art Room is a national charity that offers art therapy to
children and young people from ages 5 to 16, who are facing a
challenging time in their lives.
The Duchess, who became a mum last year, has been patron of the
charity since 2012 and has made several visits around the country
to see the charity at work.
After it was announced Kate would become patron, Kensington Palace
explained the Duchess chose the charity as it “reflects her
interest in arts and her particular interest in using creativity of
art to enrich the lives of young people”.
While Kate was in West London, Prince William was spotted with his
brother Prince Harry in Datchet
helping the Army move sandbags to badly affected flood
areas.
Although not announced by the Palace, a spokesman for the two
confirmed they had ”wanted to help with relief effort and felt
the best way was through the Army”.
Earlier this week, the wife of Prince William made her first
appearance of 2014 as she attended the Portrait Gala.
Arriving solo, the Duchess dazzled in an ink-blue Jenny Packham
dress that sparkled with a diamond necklace borrowed from The
Queen.]]>
