On the 22nd of November, Princess Mathilde will be present at a 'reading-for children' afternoon in the Zoo of Antwerp.
She will also receive a book with fairy-tales titled "Fairy-tales for a princess" the book is dedicated to Priness Elisabeth en Mathilde herself wrote the intro of the book.

 

[leanne]

Does Princess Mathilde have any engagements before the 22nd November?

 

[magnik]

No. http://www.theroyalforums.com/forums/f29/royal-belgian-calendar-7150.html
Interesting why so long of doing nothing? Maybe she is expecting or smth?

 

[johann]

Not seldom activities are added only a few days beforehand to the agenda. And next week are autumn school holidays in Belgium, so maybe Mathilde and Philippe are simply enjoying some free time with their three children.
And it’s a safe guess that Mathilde will attend the reception at the Belgian parliament to mark the King´s day/feast of the King on November 15th.

 

[selminha]

Ir was good that Mathilde appaered in the concert of day 29 of October!!!!!

It are autumn holidays in Belgium, so the RF have a week off.

I was wondering about the previous post - what concert of the 29 October did Princess Mathilde appear?

I guess this is just a little misunderstanding. This concert has been attended by Albert and Paola. Maybe Selminha thought it would have been nice, if Mathilde accompanied them?

And for those who are in urgent need of new activities: Mathilde will attend the screening of “Iris”, a movie about the famous English writer Iris Murdoch who suffered from Alzheimer disease, on Saturday (Nov. 4th) in Brussels. This cinema show is free for those who are confronted with the Alzheimer disease (offered by the National Alzheimer League to mark the discovery of this disease 100 years ago). Mathilde is patron of the Alzheimer Leauge.

[selminha]

I am with homesicknesses to see the princess Mathilde.

 

[alexandresylvie]

And if the princess mathilde were pregnant because it does not appear
much in public this time? ? ? ? ? ?

 

[Prinses Lauren10]

I don't know about this, but i hope it!
she is so lovely with children!!!

 

[magnik]

Maybe as Hannelore wrote they go on holidays or she want said I wnat take some time with my children!

But we will see her on 22/11/2006 Princess Mathilde Afternoon of reading
The Princess attends at the Zoo of Antwerp, one afternoon of reading to high voice, within the framework of the “Voorleesweek” organized on the 17 to 26November by “Stichting Lezen”.
Three classes of 6 year old pupils (one of each Community of our country) are invited. By her presence, the Princess wishes to underline how much it is important that the parents make the reading with their children, and this not only to increase their linguistic and social aptitudes or to stimulate the development of a good culture of the reading, but more especially like means of deepening of the family bonds between parents and children.
With this occasion, the Princess also receives the book “Tales for a Small Princess”, written by the youth author Henri van Daele and illustrated by Domenica Mertens. This work gathers tales coming from the various countries in which our Belgian Queens are originating. This book of tales, realized by the Editions Coat, is dedicated to Princess Elisabeth, and Princess Princess wrote the foreword of the book.

 

[Prinses Lauren10]

see we her with elisabeth?? because the book is dedicated to Princess Elisabeth!
I hope it!!

 

[kate2]

I have the impression we see her less than we used to see her.

 

[anneke]

That's my opinion too.
The last time we don't see pics of her.
Are their no duty's for her?

 

[Fie]

I saw on my calender that November 22 is a Wednesday. Elisabeth could attent with her mummy if the meeting is in the afternoon. If it's not schedulled for the afternoon I'm not certain if Elisabeth will attent. Although I would agree that it would be very nice to see her. Can someone tell me if it's schedulled for the afternoon?

 

[Prinses Lauren10]

Mathilde is a very beautiful woman who seems very calm and protective for all her family.

Phillipe looks so shy that even Mathilde seems to afraid him - a little exagerated for my part-

What a beautiful children they have!

Of the many pictures we have seen of Phillipe and Mathilde, I think they seem extremely close and show much rapport. Phillipe may tend to be shy, but his demeanor has changed appreciably since their marriage. He no longer seems dour IMO.
