Kensington Palace has finally revealed which school Princess Charlotte will be attending in the fall.
"Princess Charlotte will join Prince George at Thomas's Battersea from September 2019 this year," a palace representative said Friday in a statement.
The Good Schools Guide describes the private school, which costs $23,000 a year to attend, as a "big, busy, slightly chaotic school for cosmopolitan parents who want their children to have the best English education money can buy."
The school is certainly unique. It teaches numerous specialist subjects — including morning yoga — to children ages 4 to 13.
It is a Christian school, though it is open to children of all faiths.
The most important rule is to "be kind," according to the school's official website.
"Whilst we are proud of our record of senior school entrance and scholarship successes, we place a greater emphasis on a set of core values, which include kindness, courtesy, confidence, humility and learning to be givers, not takers," a statement on the school's website says.
"We hope that our pupils will leave this school with a strong sense of social responsibility, set on a path to become net contributors to society and to flourish as conscientious and caring citizens of the world."

The school has become somewhat controversial since it was revealed that it discourages pupils from "having best friends," as it wants every child to be treated equally.
The uniform "essentials" — including a blue button-down and navy shorts — come to an estimated $456 a year.
A video of Prince William dropping off a very anxious-looking George for his first day was released by Kensington Palace back in 2017.
He is since said to be "very popular" among his classmates, however, and has even been given the nickname P.G., according to Vanity Fair.
Meanwhile, Prince William works out with the moms after they drop the kids off, according to the publication.
"William particularly loves to have a chat with some of the other parents and he works out with some of the mums at the Harbour Club after drop off. He's very chatty and amiable," one parent told the publication.
Princess Charlotte is enrolled in Willcocks Nursery, and it was previously thought that she might not make the transition to the same school as her brother because of "their different temperaments."

"We are delighted that the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge have decided that Princess Charlotte will join her elder brother, Prince George, at Thomas's Battersea," Simon O'Malley, the headmaster at Thomas's Battersea, said.
"We greatly look forward to welcoming her and all of our new pupils to the school in September."
