King Charles III and Queen Camilla have been greeted by children outside a Sydney church in their first public appearance of their Australian visit.

The royals’ first public engagement was at a service at St. Thomas’ Anglican Church in North Sydney. As Charles and Camilla made their way to the front of church, Sunday school children waving Australian flags cheered and shook hands with the couple. Inside, dozens of phones pointed in their direction, while excited whispers echoed through the room. After the service, the king and queen were greeted outside by hundreds of cheering people hoping to catch a glimpse or snap a photo.
The couple later attended the New South Wales state Parliament to commemorate the 200th anniversary of Australia’s first legislature.
