A new, heartwarming video features Princess Catherine and some students from St. John’s CE Primary School.
In the video, which was posted on the Prince and Princess of Wales’ social media accounts, Catherine introduces herself and tells the children she is there to show them a new movie called Layla’s Story as part of her Shaping Us campaign.
The children are won over by the mom-of-three, who is a natural when it comes to interacting with kids, as she inquires about their teddy bears, including one named Barnaby, before admitting she wishes she had brought her own teddy along.
In order to coincide with the launch of her brand-new campaign, the Princess created a brand-new Instagram account.
The Princess has created a new handle @earlychildhood for The Royal Foundation Centre for Early Childhood in addition to the @princeandprincessofwales account, which will serve as a record of all of Catherine and Prince William’s activities.
The Shaping Us campaign, which aims to increase understanding of the significance of a child’s first five years of life, was unveiled by Catherine on Tuesday.
In addition to joining William at a special BAFTA event on Monday, Catherine participated in events in Leeds on Tuesday to commemorate the campaign’s launch.
The Princess’s stirring video message was posted on the new Instagram account along with behind-the-scenes photos from Catherine ‘s day.
The first five years of our lives are fundamentally shaped by our early childhood, according to the author. But as a society, we now devote a lot more of our time and effort to retirement.
“Today, the Royal Foundation Centre for Early Childhood is launching a new campaign, Shaping Us, to raise awareness of the life-changing impact we can have when we create a nurturing and supportive environment for children and the people who look after them.”
