"On Wednesday, the Crown Prince met some of the evacuated Afghans, who will soon be moving out into Danish society, where volunteers from the Red Cross are ready to receive them.

It was the first time the Crown Prince heard about the evacuation from the Afghans, and their stories made a big impression"

More on CP Frederik's visit to the Afghan refugees.

QuoteThe Red Cross is an organization that is close to the heart of the Danish royal family. For many years, Prince Henrik was the patron of the organization and deeply involved in their work. After Prince Henrik?s death, Crown Prince Frederik took over his father?s patronage. On January 26th 2022, the Danish Crown Prince received an update on the organisation?s work to help Afghan refugees is going.

Through the project ?Friends Show the Way?, which is a nationwide collaboration between the Red Cross and the Danish Refugee Council, more than 9.000 refugees have been assigned a volunteer friend or family of friends since 2016. Crown Prince Frederik joined a meeting at the organization?s volunteer house, where he had the opportunity to talk to three of the Afghans who were evacuated from Afghanistan last year and employees and volunteers from The Red Cross, which, among other things, helps refugees to settle in Denmark.

According to the Naestved Municipality's press release, 125 high school students will be sent out as volunteers in Naestved during the Volunteer Week from 14 to 16 March, with the goal of inspiring young people to become motivated adults who take responsibility for the future.

Mary was seen going to and from Hobart (on the island of Tasmania) to visit relatives there by Qantas staff before she came to Melbourne. Apparently staff must have given Channel 7 a tip-off that she was here in Oz and in Melbourne as there was a bit of banter about it on 7s morning show.

Thank you for the hula skirt! I don?t know whether Fred or Christian are even here actually. There were early reports that they were, but nobody?s seems to have seen them.

Few Aussies (including me and the family) are travelling interstate much at the moment however, to Tassie or anywhere else. The long lockdowns here have had a really strange effect that we were discussing at home the other evening. It?s as if we are all like animals that have been locked in a cage (our homes) for so long that there?s almost a distrust of going anywhere new or even places anybody?s been before (like Tassie which I?ve visited five times over the years.)

It?s weird, this Covid effect. TV Ads are announcing cuts in business class airfares, ferry fares to Tasmania and some overseas bargains to places like Bali and Fiji but it doesn?t seem to be moving people outside of maybe visiting Melbourne. Of course the devastating floods in NSW and Queensland have had an effect and by June winter will be upon us. Perhaps we?ll all get over it by later this year.

I've been waiting for an article in English about this troubling story. It's been a source of discussion at the big royal forum where there are Danish posters. I'm saddened to read these allegations and hope that now that it has been brought to light, that this will be a first step in ending the abuse that has allegedly been going on for decades if not longer. Prince Joachim's eldest son, Prince Nikolai  also attended this institution.


The Crown Prince and Princess of Denmark react to shocking documentary on son?s school ? Royal Central (https://royalcentral.co.uk/europe/denmark/the-crown-prince-and-princess-of-denmark-react-to-shocking-documentary-on-sons-school-176114/)

QuoteHerlufsholm school in Denmark is a prestigious boarding school, where several members of the Danish royal family have spent years of their education. Currently, the future King of Denmark, His Royal Highness Prince Christian, is attended the school.

However, the Danish TV-channel TV2 has broadcast a documentary ?Herlufsholm?s secrets?, where several former students describe a violent culture with abuse and bullying in the school.

The documentary, shown on May 5th 2022, presented stories from about 50 former students, including several alleging a culture of bullying and violence at the school.

It must be emphasized that Prince Christian is not associated with the cases. Still, the shocking descriptions in the documentary have caused the Crown Prince and Crown Princess to react as parents to Prince Christian, who is still attending the school.

On the Danish royal family?s Instagram, Crown Prince Frederik and Crown Princess Mary say: ?As parents of a child who goes to Herlufsholm, we are deeply shaken by the testimonies that emerge in the current documentary about the school. It is heartbreaking to hear about systematic bullying and about the culture of abuse and violence that many have been a part of. That is completely unacceptable. As parents, we expect the school to effectively ensure a culture where everyone is safe and part of the community, and we will in the coming time follow the changes that are obviously necessary?.
The school has said on its website that it has launched in ?independent investigation? into the allegations.

Prince Nikolai of Denmark attended 10th grade at Herlufsholm School and received his upper secondary education there as well. The Danish Royal Court announced earlier this year that in the fall of this year, Princess Isabella of Denmark is set to start at Herlufsholm School.

Herlufsholm School is a private day and boarding about 80 kilometres south of Copenhagen. There are about 600 students at the school of which approximately 275 students are boarders. The pupils follow a 10-day programme with lessons on Saturdays followed by 3-day weekends.

Yes, so have I, TLLK. This elite school appears to have been founded on British boarding school traditions, including dorms and a prefect system, all of which facilitates a certain amount of bullying. There were complaints about the general atmosphere at Herlufsholm and this documentary was the cherry on top so to speak.

What I can?t understand is that Mary and Fred continued to support the school by placing not only Christian there but more recently an announcement was made that Isabella would join him next. I suppose though that it resembles royal behaviour in the wake of Charles?s sufferings at Gordonstoun. His brothers and nephew followed him there, nonetheless, (and seemed to enjoy it.)

However, Mary and Fred are more modern parents than the Queen and PP and I hoped things had changed in the last decades with that sort of thing. Fred did have quite a bleak childhood himself of course. Many of their friends from the Danish elite had sent their children there and apparently recommended it to the CP couple. Joachim?s older son was also a pupil.

As stated, the headmaster was clinging on to his post but has now been sacked. Reforms like single bedrooms and the abolition of the prefect system have been installed.

Scandal at Prince Christian?s school could be debated in Denmark?s parliament   ? Royal Central (https://royalcentral.co.uk/europe/denmark/scandal-at-prince-christians-school-could-be-debated-in-denmarks-parliament-176274/)

QuoteThe Prime Minister of Denmark has called for a debate in parliament over allegations of bullying at one of the country?s top schools, currently being attended by Prince Christian.

The problems at Herlufsholm were exposed in a documentary on Danish TV2 which revealed allegations of bullying and harassment.

Following the documentary, the school?s principal was fired. The school board announced that they no longer want the principal to continue in his position as the documentary has clearly shown a lack of desire in the management to deal with the culture at the school.

It should be emphasised that there are no indications that Prince Christian of Denmark has been a victim of bullying and harassment, nor that the Prince has been involved in such behaviour.

The same evening that the documentary was shown on Danish television, Crown Prince Frederik and Crown Princess Mary made a public statement. They strongly dissociated themselves from what had happened at their son?s school. After this, there has been another royal reaction. Countess Alexandra, mother of Prince Nikolai, has also commented on the school. Prince Nikolai, who is also the son of Prince Joachim, previously attended school.

To the Danish press, Countess Alexandra stated: ?I am deeply shaken, because my son has only good memories from his school days at Herlufsholm.?

According to a press release from the Rigshospitalet, the new Mary Elizabeth Hospital will be:

?Denmark?s highly specialized hospital for children, young people, pregnant women, and their families. The hospital will create a safe and homely atmosphere with space for patients and their families lives and needs due to the vulnerable situation they are in.

Mary Elizabeth?s Hospital will be developed so that the specialists come to the patients. Today, you sometimes have to be examined in many different places in the hospital. At Mary Elizabeth?s Hospital, all examination rooms are located in the same place, and this will provide a calmer and more coherent process.?

Certainly any bullying is reprehensible. What I find a bit puzzling though is that Joachim?s elder sons were educated at this school and loved it, and their mother apparently recommended it to the Crown Prince couple, as did several older friends whose children also attended Herlufsholm.

Royal family release shocking statement as they remove son from school | HELLO! (https://www.hellomagazine.com/royalty/20220626143923/royal-family-shocking-statement-release-son-school/)

QuotePrince Christian will be taken out of his prestigious boarding school, Herlufsholm, and Princess Isabella will no longer attend the school as previously planned.

Frederik, Crown Prince of Denmark and his wife Mary, Crown Princess of Denmark, released a statement confirming the news, which has been rumoured since last month, when a documentary called Herlufsholm's Secrets alleged a culture of bullying and violence at the institution.

Their statement reads: "During summer we will make a decision with our children about their future school.

"For the students who continue at Herlufsholm, it is our hope that the school has more peace to ensure the necessary changes & succeed in creating a culture where everyone can thrive and feel safe.

"It has been a difficult process for us, but based on the overall picture and our special position as Crown Prince Couple, we have chosen that Prince Christian stops at Herlufsholm, and that Princess Isabella does not start in 9th grade at school after the summer holidays.

"As we have previously announced, we are deeply shaken by the reports that have come out about Herlufsholm recently. We have also made it clear that we as parents of a child at school expect the school to do what it takes to rectify the unacceptable conditions."

When the documentary, which saw 50 former students relate their experiences, was released, the royal couple were quick to speak out.

They said at the time: "It is heartbreaking to hear about systematic bullying and about the culture of abuse and violence. That is completely unacceptable. As parents, we expect the school to effectively ensure a culture where everyone is safe."

As well as their oldest son and daughter Princess Isabella, 15, the parents-of-four also share 11-year-old twins Princess Josephine and Prince Vincent.

Really, there wasn?t much else the CP couple could do besides remove Christian from the school. This scandal was just not going to go away. In fact there was every indication that this would be bubbling on for months. It?s a bit of a shame if Christian liked the prospect of being there but the situation just became untenable. It?s possible that Herlufsholm won?t survive this, at least in its present form, but we shall see.

Danish posters were talking elsewhere and Gammel Hellerup Gymnasium may be an option. It?s not far from where Isabella goes to school. There is some talk that several Herlufsholm students may decide to study there.
However  it's reputedly a rather snobbish school. As in new money, while Herlufsholm is old money.

There is another option apparently. Christian could attend a high school in Aarhus and live at Marselisborg with a few friends. He could board and be semi-anonymous like Frederik was in his mid-teens.
There are several renowned (state) high schools in Aarhus. Its very much a young people?s area. The university alone holds 38.000 students, not to mention all the other schools and various educational facilities.

I have to say that this was truly the best way forward in light of the allegations of serious bullying happening at Herlufsholm Boarding  School which had been Prince Christian's former school.

Crown Prince Couple of Denmark announce plans for children?s schooling ? Royal Central (http://royalcentral.co.uk/europe/denmark/crown-prince-couple-of-denmark-announce-plans-for-childrens-schooling-179469/)

Quote

Crown Prince Frederik and Crown Princess Mary of Denmark have announced where their two eldest children will attend school this autumn.

The Crown Prince Couple have decided that Prince Christian will enrol at Ordrup Gymnasium in Gentofte, while Princess Isabella will attend Ingrid Jespersen?s Gymnasieskole in Copenhagen.

Their new schools allow the royal children to remain at home for their education instead of attending a boarding school.

No photo opportunities will be provided as the teenagers begin at their new schools.

Both children were expected to attend the elite Herlufsholm Boarding School; however, their parents withdrew them from the institution after serious allegations were made against the school.

Prince Christian, 16, had been attending the school since 2021, and Isabella, 15, was supposed to join him this autumn.

Herlufsholm Boarding School became the centre of a major row in Denmark after two former students came forward to describe their dealings with bullying, sexual assault, and corporal punishment. Four students have been expelled for their roles in the alleged abuse.

Although Prince Christian was a pupil at the institution, he is in no way connected to the allegations.

Yes it is. The only downside that I can see is that Christian and Izzie will be at different schools quite a way away from each other for the time being. However, there may be a possibility of Izzie transferring later on.

I understand from the article that both of them will be day students instead of boarders, so they'll see each other before and after school.

I am looking forward to the reunion with Greenland and the Greenlandic people. It is an exciting and varied program in the coming days, and I look forward to the many conversations with children and young people, business partners and those I meet on my way. It will be some interesting and educational days for all of us. And of course I have many greetings from home.?

Her first engagement in Nuuk took place with the World Wildlife Fund, of which she is President?a role she inherited from her late father-in-law Prince Henrik in 2020.

QuoteThe royals led a delegation including government ministers and 38 Danish companies.

On Sunday 26 February, Crown Prince Frederik and Crown Princess Mary began their visit with a visit to the07 Taj Mahal in Agra. This was their first visit to the iconic UNESCO World Heritage Site, and they received a tour before posing for photographs on a white marble bench in the foreground. Afterwards, they visited the Agra Fort and received a tour of the area.

In a speech a few days later, Crown Prince Frederik would call the Taj Mahal ?a magnificent monument and symbol of India,? and vowed ?I hope one day I will be able to show to our children.?

The official programme began in earnest the next day in the capital city of New Delhi. Their first engagement was to meet with India?s Foreign Minister Subrahmanyam Jaishankar, who previously visited Denmark in 2021.

Afterwards, they laid a wreath in memory of Mahatma Gandhi, who was assassinated 75 years ago. They lunched with Indian Vice President Jagdeep Dhankhar and officially opened an exhibition on silver at the National Museum.

The exhibit, Silver Treasures from Denmark and India, showcases over 200 pieces of silver from the respective countries while exploring silversmithing and the craftsmanship of artisans. According to the Danish Royal Court, the National Museum and the Kolding Museum partnered on the exhibition as part of a commitment to strengthening the cultural exchange between the countries.

Finally, the Crown Prince and Princess attended a Grand Dinner for all participating Danish government ministers and businesses, as well as guests chosen specifically by the business leaders.

Crown Prince Frederik participates in traditional military parade ? Royal Central (https://royalcentral.co.uk/europe/denmark/crown-prince-frederik-participates-in-traditional-military-parade-187462/)

QuoteCrown Prince Frederik of Denmark has taken part in the Royal Life Guards Parade in Copenhagen, attending on behalf of Queen Margrethe.

The Queen of Denmark continues to recuperate after recent surgery.

The parade took place, according to tradition, on the exercise ground at the Lifeguard?s Barracks in Copenhagen.

During the parade, the Crown Prince bestowed the ?Queen?s Watch? upon a guardsman at the Life Guards Barracks in Copenhagen. During the Clock Parade, Guardsman Mads Karreb?k Mortensen was honoured with the ?Queen?s Watch? by the Crown Prince, in recognition of his outstanding service during his tenure with the Guard Company.

At the conclusion of their service, the Guard Company selects the Guardsman who has exemplified both exceptional service as a soldier and demonstrated camaraderie, to be bestowed with the prestigious ?Queen?s Watch? award. The Guardsman is chosen by their superiors and peers, who place great emphasis on these attributes during the selection process.

The tradition of presenting the watch has been in place since 1970, when it was introduced to commemorate Frederik IX?s 70th birthday. Following the change in monarch in 1972, the watch was renamed ?The Queen?s Watch?, and Her Majesty has since carried on the practice.
