The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge are on the last leg of their Caribbean royal tour and have an action-packed day of activities ahead of them in the Bahamas. William and Kate, who arrived in the country on Thursday afternoon, have already had an official meeting with the Prime Minister.

But on Friday, the couple had the chance to meet with more locals and bond with schoolchildren as they kicked off a rather rainy day two of their Bahamas trip with a visit to Sybil Strachan Primary School in the capital city, Nassau.

William and Kate were met by excited staff and pupils as they dropped into a class at Sybil Strachan Primary School.

The royals were greeted with a ‘Guard of Honour’ of schoolchildren alongside the Minister of Education, Glenys Hanna-Martin, and the Principal of the school, Mr Ricardo Rolle.

The school, which was closed for nearly two years as a result of COVID-19, has over 700 students stretching from pre-school to Grade 6.

William and Kate were in high spirits as they met the children and joined them for an outdoor assembly. Students from other local schools also gathered for the assembly, which included a school choir performance and a traditional ‘Rake n’ Shake’ Band.

Rake n’ Shake music is characterised by the use of a saw tool as the primary instrument and is used to accompany dances such as the Bahamian Quadrille and the heel-toe polka.
