The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge arrived at the show just before 11am and were escorted by Royal Agricultural Society president Glen Dudley and his wife Jennifer to meet excited teachers and school children involved in the Schools District Exhibit Display Competition.
The Duke and Duchess talked to some of the children involved in the competition about the challenge of putting on a professional display, created from grains, fresh produce and wool.
The couple spent some time viewing the district exhibits where they caught up with Mrs Cregan. Mrs Cregan appears to be filling in Prince William with details of the beer can trophy, which our Northern Districts Exhibit won back this year with its wool display.
Their Royal Highnesses Duke and Duchess of Cambridge then moved into the show’s Sheep and Wool Pavilion and were introduced to Fred, a very large, well-behaved Merino ram who is now quite famous for appearing in several television commercials.
