Are you interested in our Wellesley Values Bursaries?
Who is the Bursary for?
Every year we offer financial assistance to families of boys entering Years 7.
What does the Bursary include?
The bursary is for a 20% discount on tuition fees, for a maximum of 2 years.
How can the Bursary be used?
To assist families to transfer their sons into private schooling.
For example, you may have a sibling who you’d love to have at Wellesley too. Or you were thinking of sending your son to Wellesley in Year 8, this opportunity could enable you to make your choice earlier.
How do I know if my son is eligible?
Bursaries will be awarded to students who can demonstrate they have the potential to become a Wellesley boy.
What is a Wellesley boy? See below!
Please note: other eligibility criteria apply.
When do applications close?
Applications do not close, although there are a limited number of bursaries available so enquire now and we will contact you to make an appointment to start the process of joining the Wellesley Family.
Do you have any questions?
If you have any queries about bursaries, please don’t hesitate to contact Amanda – amanda@wellesley.school.nz.
Why Wellesley?
At Wellesley, your son will be surrounded by boys who want to learn, and teachers who want to teach.
We don’t have big open-plan classrooms with lots of kids and multiple teachers because we believe that boys feel lost and can become invisible.
Our promise to you is that your boy will be seen and challenged.
We’re a school for boys.
We’re a boys school, so our school programme is designed to make it easy for your son to engage with the other boys in his class and his teachers.
In this environment, he is respected for his strengths as well as his areas of need.
We are confident your son will thrive and achieve his full potential.
What does a Wellesley Boy look like?
Our boys come to us from all walks of life, but they all leave as “can-do” kids with a strong sense of belonging. A Wellesley Boy:
- Has strong foundations in literacy and maths
- Is a great communicator
- Has the confidence to take risks
- Is curious to discover
- Is competitive, but not at all costs
- Is prepared for secondary school.
