The Princess of Wales travelled to Castle Hill Academy in New Addington, Croydon, as part of Children’s Mental Health Week 2026 celebrations.
Catherine, who serves as Patron of Place2Be, the UK charity behind the annual awareness week since 2015, has consistently advocated for nurturing children’s emotional wellbeing from the earliest stages of life.
The Croydon school has maintained a partnership with Place2Be spanning many years, integrating mental health support into everyday school activities through its Whole School Approach, which equips pupils and their families with tools for emotional resilience.
Catherine commenced her visit by exploring the school’s Early Years outdoor play area, a facility made possible through funding from Deloitte, which participates in The Royal Foundation Business Task Force for Early Childhood.
The outdoor space has been constructed according to Place2Be’s therapeutic guidelines, creating an environment that fosters emotional self-regulation alongside sensory discovery and imaginative play.
During her time at the academy, the Princess engaged with pupils, their parents, teaching staff and Place2Be practitioners to observe how the school community was participating in the awareness week.
