On 1 April 1851 Oscar (Claude) Monet entered Le Havre secondary school. "I was born unruly", he admitted later. "I could never bend to any rule, even as a very small child . . . the school always seemed to me like a prison, and I could never resign myself to live there even for the space of four hours a day." In the school records he appears as "a very good-natured boy, who gets on well with his fellow pupils".
