Princess Charlotte’s First Day of Pre-School

Princess Charlotte attends her first day of school at Willcocks Nursery School.

The 2-year-old was all smiles as she made her way to school, and mom Kate had to document the big moment. She wore an adorable $150 burgundy Razorbil wool coat by Amaia with grey tights, a pink scarf, red shoes and a red bow. She carried a pink backpack by Cath Kidston. Her older brother Prince George started nursery school at the same age as Charlotte in January 2016. He attended a Montessori school not too far from Anmer Hall, their country home. Charlotte with be attending full time at the school, unlike her brother who started as a part-time student.

The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge are very pleased to share two photographs of Princess Charlotte at Kensington Palace this morning.

The choice for Charlotte to attend this school was quite a shock as it was thought she would follow in her brother’s footsteps and go to Thomas Battersea, where he started in September. His father took him to school as Kate was battling Hyperemesis Gravidarum, or acute morning sickness. The Princess announced her third pregnancy in October and is due in April.
