Prince George Returns to Eton as Siblings Head Back to Lambrook

Prince George is back at Eton College on Monday, 9 November, after a two-week break. His brother and sister go back to their school the same day. HELLO! Magazine reported the return and said the Wales children have been off school since 23 October.

George, aged 13, started studying at Eton, the boarding school in Windsor, in September. Boarders live at the school during term time, so George is away from his parents' home at Forest Lodge for most of the year. He returned to Eton on Sunday, the end of what HELLO! described as his long leave.

Princess Charlotte, aged 11, and Prince Louis, aged 8, attend Lambrook School in Berkshire, near Ascot. They live at home during term time. The three children had all attended Lambrook together since 2022. When George moved to Eton, it was the first time the siblings had been at different schools in that period.

HELLO! published the first photos and video of George's arrival at Eton in September. His father, Prince William, and mother, Kate, went with him. In the week before his return, George also joined his father at Aston Villa's away match against Barcelona.

Eton's term has a few breaks before Christmas. The school has an optional "B weekend" from 21 to 22 November, when boys may go home after Saturday commitments. A short leave break follows from 28 to 30 November. The school then closes for Christmas in mid-December.

For families at both schools, the autumn is a run of short terms and long weekends. For the children, it means one brother at boarding school and two siblings at a day-school routine.
