Founded in 1867, Wellington College is a progressive school for 21st-century boys (with a current roll of 1780) which values belonging and is connected to the past. We have a proud history of outstanding academic achievement and a record of national success in both sport and in the performing arts. The aspirations of Wellington College and its people are summarised through our COLL values. They provide a focus for our work as we serve others, develop leadership and care for each other as we learn together. The international student programme contributes to the diversity of our school community and generates additional funding for school projects and facilities on our beautiful, spacious city campus.
