Does anyone recognise the 4 other women?

[iceflower]

Their names are listed below their individual photos/screenshots on the second photo.

[EvaH]

I meant the women working with the Queen. The ones we see with her. I believe one of them is HM Private Secretary (Gabriella?) but I have never seen the other 3!

[Marengo]

Do you mean the ladies in the room with the dodgy wall covering? I am not sure if Gabriela Sancisi is included in that photo. Perhaps they are members of the foundation that the Queen paid the virtual visit to? The logo of the foundation can be seen on the paper under the televisionset.

They are in the video as well - the three on the top row in the second picture are all seated in the same room.

The pictures of her getting out of the car show such a 'normal Dutch residential area' that it could be anywhere... But it happens to be in the village my parents-in-law grew up in. It's less than 1 km away from where my husband's grandmother lived until 6 months ago when she had to move to a nursing home. As she is an enthusiastic monarchist herself, I am sure she is pleased to learn that the queen visited her (former) village.

Can someone summarize what the Queen was saying to the kids in the classroom?

[Somebody]

They started of with saying that they were nervous; than Máxima asked 'what is the biggest difference?' but the children clearly didn't understand her question (one child said 'nothing') as their teacher had to explain that the queen was talking about the difference between being at school versus online classes. Then they asked which children did go to school during the lockdown (i.e., children of esssential workers).

Next, Máxima asked about 'the letter party' (some activity because they learned most of the letters of the alphabet - so, clearly this is the third grade (in the Netherlands they start counting at kindergarten (first and second grade), so third grade would be first grade in most countries).

The teacher starts talking a bit more when the queen asks about how the teacher was doing during lockdown (the teacher explains that sometimes the wifi wasn't working). And when she is about to leave one child raises her hand and says that she always sees (informal) 'you' on the news (on an I-pad); Máxima explains that that is what happens when you are queen 'it is what it is'.

In the latter conversations she talks a lot about 'how did the teacher do it?' (answer: it went well) and 'how long have you been using Chromebooks?' (answer: for years).

Also today Queen Máxima digitally received the first copy of the book "Transition from head to toe" during a webinar of the Gelderse Vallei Hospital about menopausal complaints:

That book is something the Queen can relate to given her age.

It's great that such attention is given to menopause!
