Royal Hospital Chelsea
An unforgettable day for Year 8 students, who attended the Founder’s Day Parade at the Royal Hospital Chelsea today with Her Royal Highness The Princess Royal reviewing the Parade of iconic Chelsea Pensioners. The students, dressed in their ceremonial Blues uniform, were chosen for their marching skills. The annual Parade in London remembers King Charles II who issued a Royal Warrant for the foundation of the hospital and commissioned Sir Christopher Wren to design it. Today’s Parade also coincided with the 80th anniversary of the D-Day landings in France.
