TAKE a look through our photo gallery of The Prince of Wales's visit to a school in Rowley Regis today (Thursday, April 25).
He visited St Michael's Church of England High School in Rowley Regis to learn about its award-winning ways to help children's mental health.
He was previously invited to visit the Sandwell school in a letter posted on X, formally known as Twitter, by student Freddie Hadley in October last year.
On World Mental Health Day, Prince William responded with a message commending Freddie and St. Michael’s School on their work to tackle mental health challenges school children face.
William walked up to Freddie Hadley and shook hands when he arrived unannounced and left the 12-year-old grinning and later confidently telling the future king he expected him to turn up.
