Prince George starts attending Eton College

ETON, England (NBC, KYMA) - Prince George started at Eton college Tuesday, as the future British King followed in the footsteps of his father, the heir to the throne Prince William, by attending the prestigious 600-year-old school.

The 13-year-old grandson of King Charles was joined by his parents William and Kate, for his arrival at his new school, with footage showing them smiling and looking relaxed as they were greeted by Eton's headteacher, Simon Henderson.

Both his father and George's Uncle Prince Harry attended Eton, one of Britain's most elite schools, which is located close to the monarch's Windsor castle, west of London, and where William, Kate and their other two children Charlotte and Louis also have a home.

Fees for the all boys boarding school, which was founded by King Henry VI in 1440, are about $89,000 a year.
