Queen Maxima of the Netherlands looks typically stylish in orange during a visit to a school in Amsterdam
Queen Máxima cut an elegant figure when she visited a MindUS project at the Tobias School in Amsterdam today.
The royal, 52, who is an honorary patron of MindUS, went to the school to watch a theater performance of KiKiD’s Talk to Me.
Maxima observed scenes from Talk To Me and invited students from the third pre-vocational secondary education to talk about the course.
The KiKid Foundation produces educational theater performances, training and teaching materials for schools on social-emotional themes such as mental health, sexuality and bullying, according to the palace’s website.
For the occasion, the mother of four looked typically stylish in an orange patterned long-sleeved top and classic gray trousers.

The royal added a touch of glamor to her outfit with a pair of statement monochrome flower-shaped earrings.
Colorful bracelets in shades of pink and orange were added to the royal family’s fashionable jewelry choice, along with a chunky diamond band.
Maxima styled her blonde locks and opted for a simple face of makeup, accentuating her eyes with black eyeliner.
After seeing the performance, Maxima talked to representatives of the Tobias School and KiKiD employees about the importance of discussing mental health in schools.
The 52-year-old represented MIND Us, which aims to encourage a healthy mindset in young people by developing resilience skills and learning to recognize when to ask for help.
It comes after Queen Máxima was photographed beaming during a visit to an Art Camp where she provided vocational education in the Northeast Netherlands.
The 52-year-old was present at the start of the camp at the Hedon pop venue in Zwolle earlier this month.

She wore a two-piece brown suit made of a tweed-like fabric and a semi-deep V-neck. It had three-quarter sleeves with small turn-ups below the elbow.
The cropped blazer was accentuated at the waist with a wide black belt, and her matching A-line skirt flowed to just below her knees.
Maxima matched all her accessories: she carried a black handbag and wore black knee-high boots that matched her belt.
Meanwhile, she opted for a casual and light makeup look, with a fresh base and fresh peach blush, as well as light eye makeup and a nude lip.
Máxima wore her long blonde locks down, flowing in loose waves over her shoulders, and tucked behind her ears to keep it out of her face.
As for jewelry, the mother of two wore bracelets on both wrists, as well as large gold earrings in her earlobes.

The royal website states about the Art Camp, which started today (Wednesday): ‘Through workshops, prospective pedagogical staff and teaching assistants learn to use artistic disciplines in their work at and after school.’
It adds that around 60 students attend workshops in photography, theatre, dance, music and cartoon drawing.
During her visit, the royal family spoke to students about their experiences during the workshops.
She also attended a meeting with professionals on site, where they discussed how ‘the importance of art and culture education for MBO students is central and how this can be strengthened within these courses’.
At one point, the royal appeared to get involved in KiKiD’s Talk to Me performance and echoed the student’s gestures by closing her eyes
Maxima’s last exercise of the day was ‘talking to cultural institutions in the region of the three participating MBO courses about the range they can offer’.
The royal website explains: ‘Art Camp MBO is the first step in a three-part program More Music in the Classroom in collaboration with Noorderpoort, Alfa-College and ROC Midden Nederland.
‘The aim is to strengthen cultural education in these MBO courses, so that pedagogical staff and teaching assistants can stimulate the arts and culture offering during and after school.’
It adds that the More Music in the Classroom foundation has ‘been committed to structural music education for all primary school children in the Netherlands and the Caribbean since 2015’.
