However, the visit to the museum marked the first time her blonde hair was fully on display. <\/p>\n<p>During the outing, the Prince and Princess of Wales spent time with a group of children from Kender Primary School in New Cross, south London, who were studying the garden\u2019s pond. <\/p>\n<p>When a deluge of rain fell during the visit, Kate put up her umbrella over some of the school children and told teachers: \u201cLet them go in, let\u2019s take them inside, it\u2019s pouring.\u201d <\/p>\n<div class=\"sc-awdjp1-2 cbpRGD sc-awdjp1-3 image align-center\">\n<figure
