During the visit Prince Harry called upon his own experience with grief, having lost his mother Princess Diana aged 12. He urged schoolchildren affected by the disaster to be there for each other and continue to talk about their feelings. 

Responding to children who said they had been talking to each other about the fire, he said: "That's all you can do, is be there for each other because there will be some people... who either don't want to talk about their experiences... or think they are absolutely fine, and in years' time suddenly they might have some nightmares and that's when you guys will be crucial, because you have been through that process."
