Princess Charlotte's First day of School

 

Princess Charlotte held onto her mother's hand today as she arrived for her first day of school with her big brother Prince George, who is set to show her around the private institution.


Charlotte smiled, waved and shyly hid behind the Duchess of Cambridge who was holding her bag as she started at Thomas's Battersea in South London, where it is taught that kindness is as important as academic success.


Proudly wearing her uniform, the confident young princess was joined this morning by her parents, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, as well as George - third in line to the throne - as she begins her school career.


Head of the lower school Helen Haslem was waiting to greet her new pupil and shook hands with the princess, who celebrated her fourth birthday on May 2 and will be known as Charlotte Cambridge to staff and schoolmates.

Lovely pictures. Catherine with each passing day radiates health and wellness. William looks Kingly. Children are growing up quickly like most do. Thank you.

Kate was wearing a red, white and blue long sleeved dress by Michael Kors, known as the 'Carnation dress'.

 

Cinched in at the waist with a black leather belt, the lightweight crepe midi-skirt has buttons on the front, while the delicate floral print is perfect for autumn.

Charlotte and George both look so adorable. I can't believe how fast they're growing up.

 

I love Kate's dress. This year she's really been knocking it out of the park with the dresses she's been wearing. Perfectly turned out as always.

 

Looks like she got a new hair cut, too.
