The Royal Family and the entire Moroccan people celebrate, on Tuesday, the sixteenth birthday of Her Royal Highness Princess Lalla Khadija, a happy event that confirms, once again, the attachment and the full cohesion of the different components of the Moroccan Nation with the Glorious Alaouite Throne.

his birthday is a reminder of the festive moments that Moroccans experienced on this blessed day of February 28, 2007, when the Ministry of the Royal Household, Protocol and Chancellery announced the birth of HRH Princess Lalla Khadija.

Manifestations of joy took place everywhere at the announcement of the birth of HRH Princess Lalla Khadija, the second child of His Majesty King Mohammed VI, may God assist him, after His Royal Highness Crown Prince Moulay El Hassan.

The celebration of the sixteenth birthday of HRH Princess Lalla Khadija is an opportunity to look back on the first steps of Her Royal Highness in public life. Thus, in September 2011, it was under the benevolent gaze of HM King Mohammed VI, may God assist Him, that the opening of the first school year for HRH Princess Lalla Khadija took place at the Royal Palace in Rabat.

On this occasion, the Sovereign attended a learning session of the Holy Quran and the first Arabic and French lessons of Her Royal Highness the Princess and her classmates.

On September 17, 2018, HM King Mohammed VI, accompanied by HRH Crown Prince Moulay El Hassan and HRH Princess Lalla Khadija, presided over a ceremony at the Royal Palace in Rabat to present the progress report and the executive program in the field of schooling support and the implementation of the education and training reform.

On February 13, 2019, HRH Princess Lalla Khadija made a remarkable appearance alongside HRH Crown Prince Moulay El Hassan, HRH Prince Moulay Rachid, and Their Royal Highnesses Princesses Lalla Meryem, Lalla Asmae, Lalla Hasnaa, and Lalla Oum Keltoum, at the official welcoming ceremony of HM King Felipe VI and Queen Letizia, Sovereigns of the Kingdom of Spain, presided over by HM King Mohammed VI. The same was true, on March 30, 2019, during the visit to Morocco of His Holiness Pope Francis.

On December 13, 2019, HRH Princess Lalla Khadija chaired the inauguration ceremony of the vivarium of the National Zoological Garden of Rabat and visited the different spaces of the vivarium grouping some species of live reptiles from different regions of Africa.

Each of HRH Princess Lalla Khadija's public appearances perpetuates a long tradition that aims to initiate and familiarize the young Princes and Princesses of the Royal Family with the roles and activities they will be called upon to assume within a society that remains attached to its values.
