Why Prince William and Princess Kate won’t have public engagements this week
Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis have broken up for October half-term
While we’ve seen a flurry of appearances from the Prince and Princess of Wales recently, the royals are not expected to make public engagements this week and possibly the week after.
The reason is simply because their children Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis are on their October half-term break, so the family will most likely be spending some quality time together.
The royal youngsters broke up from school on Friday 13 October and have the next two weeks off.
They attend the beautiful and prestigious Lambrook School in Berkshire, close to their home in Windsor. The co-educational, preparatory school is set in 52 acres of countryside and offers a range of impressive facilities, from a nine-hole golf course to the school’s own orchard complete with bees, chickens and pigs.
Children are encouraged to “explore, play, learn and of course, to get muddy” – the school has its own woodland too – according to Lambrook’s website.
As well as being focused on academic subjects and languages, the variety of extracurricular activities on offer include tap dancing, bagpipe playing and swimming.
