Prince Harry just revealed the one thing Prince Archie asked him before he started school in the UK but it wasn’t granted.

The entire conversation happened alongside kids that were present at the Community Recording Studio, which was a 25 minute stop, as part of their tour of Nottingham.

The Duke started by explaining, “you know, most people don't like math. My son turned around to me and said, 'Can I go to a school that doesn't do math?' I said, 'It doesn't exist'. And then he went to this new school, and on the first day in the first class, guess what it was?" Math!"

For those unversed with the Nottingham trip it will include;

1. Community Recording Studio:

The first stop on their Nottingham tour is the Community Recording Studio (CRS) in St Ann’s. for those unversed, this is a youth and community charity founded back in 1991 by a Trevor Rose and Nick Street. Its aim is to aid young people by way of music, recording facilities, and has even branched out enough to boast sport, mentoring and youth development.

What is pertinent to mention about this visit is that its not the first time Prince Harry will be connecting with the charity. Back in 2025 he already donated over £1.1million to the BBC, for this very redevelopment effort under Children in Need.

According to the Nottingham Post fans can expect to see him and Meghan there, between 10.25-11.55am UK time.

2. Himmah Hub:

The second location on their tour is a Nottingham charity tackling poverty, food insecurity, racism, and social exclusion. Between 2024-2025 their kitchen servered more than 15,000 meals through community meals, food parcels and practical support.

This visit will also be broken into two distinct engagements, the first will see them stop at the Himmah Hub for cooking classes, a meal and only then will they move to the organisation’s foodbank.

Meghan has also been a patron of theirs from as far back as early married life. the Duchess donated £10,000 to Himmah from the cookbook’s proceeds back in 2021 and even Harry later matched that with his own donation.

The time allotted for this will be between 12.20-2.05pm.

3. Epic Partners

Thirdly on their schedule is a charity supporting children, young people and families in St Ann’s and Sneinton. The charity focuses on youth work, sport, mentoring, and education, and also tries to combine early intervention with targeted support for the youth that are affected by trauma. Similar to the first two, Prince Harry’s maintained a lengthy relationship with the charity. Even going as far back as 2013, when Epic and CRS received support from The Royal Foundation (from 2013 to 2020.)

In 2017, the Duchess also made a visit there and spent time with Epic’s girls’ nurture group as a mentor. The final visit will last anywhere from 2.25-3.15pm.
