The facility is geared toward supporting children with special mental and behavioral needs, and is part of Kate's ongoing outreach.
During her visit, Kate got hands-on with the kids, creating Christmas decorations.

Kate last visited the school in September, when she took a full tour. But the location isn't the only thing that seems familiar from Tuesday's stop.

Royal watchers will likely remember her crimson dress, too. The duchess wore it in 2012, to attend the Thames Diamond Jubilee Pageant, and again in 2014, during a reception at Buckingham palace.
