Prince Harry joined a group of school children in Vancouver for a lesson on adaptive sports – without Meghan Markle by his side.

Prince Harry has made his second appearance in Vancouver with a heartwarming and fun game of sitting volleyball with school children – but without his wife, Meghan Markle, by his side.

The Duke of Sussex, 40, launched the Invictus Games School Program at an elementary school on November 18.

The father of two visited the Seaforth Armoury and spoke to pupils about the Invictus Games – an annual adaptive sports tournament for wounded and injured service personnel.

Photos from the event showed Harry dressed casually in a light grey shirt, and dark jeans, chatting to the young pupils and engaging in activities.

In a speech shared on the social media platform X, Harry said: “Seeing them learn about the Invictus Games has had a profound impact on me because this is where Invictus starts to go even wider. Outside of the Invictus community and into schools in Canada and hopefully schools around the world.”

Harry is in the city to promote next year’s games, which take place in Whistler and Vancouver from February 8 to February 16.

In February this year, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex officially kicked off the countdown of the Winter Invictus Games 2025 by attending the Invictus Games ‘One Year to Go’ celebrations in Whistler.
