The three Cambridge children will all attend Lambrook School, a private co-educational prep school that prioritizes happiness, kindness and “a concern for the world they live in”. Confirming the news today, the Duke and Duchess said they were “hugely grateful” to Thomas’s Battersea, where Prince George and Princess Charlotte “had a happy start to their education”. They added that they are “delighted to have found a school for all three of their children that shares the same ethos and values.” Jonathan Perry, who will be the new head of children at Lambrook School, said: “We are delighted that Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis will be joining us next September and we look forward to welcoming the family, as well as of all our young students, in our school community”. Ben Thomas, Head of Thomas’s London Day Schools, said: “We would like to thank George, Charlotte and all our outgoing pupils for upholding the school’s values and for their many contributions to school life throughout of their time at Thomas’s. “We wish them every happiness and success in their future schools and beyond.” Prince Louis, who is four, will have his first day of training in September, joining his older siblings Prince George, eight, and seven-year-old Prince Charlotte, as they all embark on a new adventure. The family will move to Adelaide Cottage in the grounds of Windsor Castle, a stone’s throw from the Queen’s home and closer to Duchess Carole and Michael Middleton’s parents in Bucklebury, Berkshire. They will keep their offices in Kensington Palace and keep their country house in Anmer in Norfolk for some weekends and holidays, with a view to moving there more permanently as the children grow up. Prince George and Princess Charlotte previously attended Thomas’, Battersea, but will move to Lambrook in September after saying goodbye to their classmates at the end of term. The Duke and Duchess appear to have decided to move to Windsor to prioritize the well-being of their young family as they try to find a balance of privacy, freedom and having more space to play in the countryside.
