Princess Anne was surprised by her recent engagement by allowing a group of young students to tour the royal helicopter she arrived at.
On September 9, the 75-year-old Princess Royal, using a helicopter, reached the reception to mark the 175th anniversary of the Liverpool Chamber of Commerce at Hildickinson Stadium and landed in the field of a nearby school.
“The 6th year of royal treat!” The Merchant Taylors school wrote crown and helicopter emojis at X on September 10th.
“After her Royal Highness arrived by helicopter yesterday at our senior school field, our sixth grade student was given the unusual opportunity to approach the impressive Leonardo AW139,” the message said.
“The pilots took their time to chat with them, answered many of their questions, and made it an experience they would never forget,” which continued.
The video showed students walking a burgundy helicopter while parked in the field and chatting with the Amplinses team.
Another video shared by the Merchant Taylors school showed Princess Anne landing on Chopper and making waves as she walks into the waiting car.
“Yesterday we were honored to welcome her Royal Royal Royal Highness to the merchant Taylors,” the school said at X.
“Princess Anne arrived by helicopter at our senior school field when she traveled to Hildickinson Stadium in Everton and attended the 175th anniversary ceremony at the Liverpool room,” the post continued. “It was a privilege for the school community to host her arrival.”
An entry into the court’s circulation revealed that it was the third of the royal princess’ third engagement that day. King Charles’ sisters have been considered the “most intense” member of the royal family for the past four years by the Earl of Official Engagement and are known for their nonsense approach to obligation.
