George & Charlotte Back to School

The Easter weekend marks the end of the month long Easter break for Prince George and Princess Charlotte of Cambridge.

Much of the holiday has been spent at the Cambridges' home in Norfolk, Anmer Hall. The property on the Queen's Sandringham Estate is the family's "bolthole" where they have total privacy and spent much of the children's early years before formally moving to London in 2017.

The property has a tennis court, vegetable gardens and beautiful country to play in, just as the Duchess of Cambridge did, growing up in the Berkshire countryside. The family have a cocker spaniel, Lupo and at one stage a guinea pig named Marvin. 

Both George and Charlotte are learning to ride ponies and Charlotte has tennis lessons when in London. 

During the break the Duke and Duchess and the older children attended Burnham Horse Trials to watch William's cousin Zara Tindall ( also George's godmother) compete. 

So now it is back to London where George attends Thomas's Battersea and Charlotte goes to Willcocks Nursery School close to Royal Albert Hall in Kensington. Charlotte will celebrate her 4th birthday in early May and will start "big school" after the long Summer break.

But for now the focus is on little Prince Louis who turns 1 on 23rd April. Happy Birthday to Louis.

Cambridges and Tindall's Day Out


The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, Prince George and Princess Charlotte enjoyed a day out with royal relatives on Friday.

Prince William's cousin Zara Tindall, her husband Mike and daughter's Mia and Lena joined the Cambridge family at the Burnham horse trials in Norfolk. Zara, who is George's godmother, was taking part in the event.

Charlotte was given a ride on mum Catherine's shoulder's while William piggy backed Mia. George was similarly carried by Mike.

The royal children are on Easter break from school and will be celebrating younger brother Louis' first birthday on April 23rd.

Enjoy the first photos. We will publish more as they surface.

Houghton Hall Horse Trials


The Duchess of Cambridge took Prince George and Princess Charlotte to the Houghton Hall horse trials on Sunday. The threesome attended the Norfolk event with Prince William last year.

Houghton Hall is near to the Cambridges' home Amner Hall at Sandringham.

We already knew of Charlotte's interest in horses but it seems that George too is learning to ride. George is riding a pony belonging to his godmother Zara Tindall and the horse is kept at Windsor.

Family Day Out For The Cambridges



Last Saturday 28th May, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge took
their children to the Houghton International Horse Trials.

The horse trials are celebrating their tenth year and are held at Houghton Hall near Kings Lynn in Norfolk. The Cambridge home Anmer Hall is close by. 

Prince George wore a blue and white striped jumper by Next. Charlotte sported a pale blue cardigan and a blue bow in her hair.

The family spent time with friend James Meade and his wife Lady Laura Marsham. James is a school friend of William and is godfather to little Princess Charlotte. 

After enjoying a picnic the family left for home. Prince William flew by helicopter to Berkshire to attend a charity polo match alongside brother Prince Harry.
