Kate returned to work this afternoon (Tuesday 2nd October 2018). The Duchess visited the Sayers Croft Forest School at the Paddington Recreation Ground in London.
Kate had taken six months away from official engagements due to maternity leave. As you will recall, she gave birth to Prince Louis back in April.
Sayers Croft Trust is a charity that wants to help locals – particularly children – enjoy and care for the environment. The charity’s Forest School gives inner-city children the opportunity to learn about and engage with the natural world. The school had over 5,500 visits from children in Westminster and neighbouring boroughs in 2017.
During her visit, Kate met with children enjoying the forest school, toured the wildlife garden and took part in several outdoor activities.
Kate also spoke with instructors and teachers at the school and heard how children benefit from outdoor learning and being around nature, especially in the context of children’s mental health, well-being and development.
Kate’s outfit:
- Jacket: Fjällräven Stina
- Jeans: Zara (past season)
- Earrings: Monica Vinader Siren
- Boots: Penelope Chilvers
- Shirt: Joseph Rainer
- Sweater: Fjällräven Övik

What a wonderful place for children to learn and experience., going back to nature and the basics. The children looked to be having a really good time and at the same time learning as they go along and being able to select set activities. The royal visit would have added to the excitement of the day. You only had to look at the expressions on the faces of the little ones. A really good return for the Duchess’s visit today. Getting in amongst it and interacting with the children, not just standing talking to adults and observing, I think the Duchess did really well. Focus should be more on what the Duchess does at these functions and the purpose of the visit that is more important and not so much on what she is wearing,. You read on other blogs how critical people can be on what the Duchess s is wearing or her hairstyle and it can get quite nasty, all unnecessary , look at the positive aspects and the good she is doing not only the Duchess but other royals.
She looked dress appropriate, but more importantly she looked healthy and well. Well done. Thank you for a wonderful post Carly
Lovely Kate. Look at how that little girl beams at her.
On a style note, I really like that classic sweater!
