The Wellesley Haddon Dene
FAMILY
Wellesley House is a family-orientated preparatory school where pupils aged between 2-11 years have a chance to shine – in the classroom, in the creative arts and on the sports field – supported by exceptional pastoral care. We cater for day pupils, who are fully integrated into the school and benefit from an extended school day.
Our Beautiful
LOCATION
Wellesley is located in the quintessentially British seaside town of Broadstairs, famed for its Victorian architecture and beautiful white cliff-edged sandy beaches, and for being the home of Charles Dickens. The Victorians recognised the health benefits of being by the sea and we fully endorse this thinking, incorporating weekly beach school sessions, where children get the chance to have lots of traditional seaside fun whilst learning about marine life and bio-diversity.
