Prince George, five, started at the school in 2017. He was taken to school on his first day by his father Prince William.

The Duchess of Cambridge missed the moment after being struck down by severe morning sickness in the early stages of her third pregnancy.

Prince George was pictured arriving at school carrying a school bag labelled "George Cambridge"

William said afterwards Prince George had a "good day", adding: "It was really nice actually. It's a nice school."
