Downunder Souvenirs List

Saturday 17th January, 2015

George and his new toy bilby
Young Prince George of Cambridge received many and varied gifts during the Cambridge family tour of Australia and New Zealand last April. But his parents were also given presents for him during their trips to Malta and the United States.


A gift list from the family's tours abroad in 2014 was released by Clarence House this week. 

In Australia and New Zealand, George was the recipient of an enormous toy wombat, a possum skin cloak, sheepskin boots, a surfboard, a skateboard, an Easter egg, a toy bilby, a bicycle, a boat, polo mallet, a cricket bat, numerous books, miscellaneous toys and several sports jerseys.


At a New York fundraiser, The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge were given a mini academic gown from the learning institution where they met- St Andrew's University. No doubt this will be treasured.

These items are just a few of the larger gifts. While most of the smaller offerings are often donated to local charities you can be assured that some of those presents listed above will be kept by the family.
