Camilla opens new Coronation Library at a primary school in Islington

Queen Camilla has visited a primary school in Islington to open a new Coronation Library this afternoon - a day after the first anniversary of the King's historic crowning at Westminster Abbey.

Ahead of the service, the Duke of Sussex, 39, visited Armoury House this afternoon for an Invictus Games discussion called 'Realising a Global Community' hosted by Louise Minchin. The Queen opened Moreland Primary School's new Coronation Library, the 50th in a series of special primary school libraries that have been transformed over the last twelve months with the help of the National Literacy Trust, to mark the historic occasion.

The library at Moreland Primary School is the 1000th primary school library to open as part of the National Literacy Trust’s Libraries for Primaries campaign, which aims to establish libraries in UK primary schools in areas where local communities have low levels of literacy. The King's wife, 76, was the epitome of elegance in a long-sleeved midi length dress, featuring a peacock feather print comprising rich blue and green shadesThe Queen visited the playground, where the school choir performed and children gathered, waving flags decorated with their favourite book character

The Coronation Libraries Programme celebrates Her Majesty’s strong advocacy not only for reading and literacy, but also for the vital importance of primary school libraries. Her Majesty became Patron of the National Literacy Trust, as The Duchess of Cornwall, in November 2010. Her Majesty, as Patron of the National Literacy Trust, joined an interactive storytelling session with young librarians from primary schools across the city

Her Majesty's outing at Moreland Primary School comes as Prince Harry arrived in Britain alone today after flying in from California for a ceremony marking the 10th anniversary of the Invictus Games in London tomorrow 'There's been much media speculation that father and son would meet. While that always looked like guessing, I'd have guessed they would meet too.'

Harry is not anticipated to see his brother Prince William, who is scheduled to be away from the capital on Thursday and Friday, or his sister-in-law Kate Middleton whose cancer treatment continues following her revealing the diagnosis in March.
