Prince George was peak cuteness today as he was photographed heading off to his first day of school at Thomas’s Battersea in London.

George’s mum, Kate Middleton, was notably absent – but for good reason. The Duchess of Cambridge is expecting her third baby (yay!), and is reportedly suffering from severe morning sickness. We’re sure George will tell her all about his first day after school once he gets home.
