Lovely video of Sheikha Mozah which shows a few of her visits to schools in very poor areas (in English language!):

Educate A Child: Sheikha Moza Meets the Children - YouTube

The scenes with the long black and red robe are from her recent visit to Gaza, in 0:27 you can see how she points at herself and tells a young pupil "Me,Mozah" and in another sequence you see how she congratulates a young boy on his creativity. I believe in 1:19 we can see a glimpse of her youngest son, Sheikh Khalifa, but I am not sure, maybe it is a volunteer who support the charity to bring better education to these kids. Sheikha Mozah looks nice with natural make-up and Safari-style & she has a very friendly way to engage with children.
She speaks a little bit to the small children and talks about the charity work and the importance of education. One thing struck me as true- she said "No matter how much we do, it will never be enough" or she also talks about how she was shocked by seeing the extreme poverty in Bangladesh ("you can barely call it a class room"). Even though she has probably read a lot of books and knows many facts about poverty, I believe she was quite startled to see it with her own eyes.
