Princess Charlotteisn’t the only royalstarting at a new schoolthis week!
Like any proud dad, King Willem-Alexander was on-hand to see his daughter off on her big day — and recorded a video of her giving a wave to the camera as she rode her bike to post on Instagram.
For her first day, Princess Ariane kept her ensemble simple — sneakers paired with a black jacket and pants, accessorized with a green backpack.
“The princesses’ school time is private,” said astatementon the family’s website in April, announcing plans for Ariane to attend the high school. “At the express request of the parents, an appeal is made to the media to continue to respect the privacy of their daughters.”

However, the public does enjoy an occasional glimpse of the Netherland’s young royals as they grow up. Over the summer, they took advantage of some sunny weather to pose for family portraits at Huis ten Bosch Palace in The Hague.
