Spread over 32 acres encircled by over 700 trees, with the Himalayan foothills providing the backdrop and facing the Rispana River, stands the Welham Boys School, Dehra Dun.
The capital of a fledgling state, Dehra Dun is located about 250 km from New Delhi and has over the years, earned the sobriquet 'The School Valley’.For over 65 years, boys from all parts of the world have come here to study, to build, to dream, to find their bearings and to blossom into balanced citizens of whom any country would feel proud.
From the Principal's Desk
The entire nature of Schooling today is undergoing a fundamental transformation, the world over. Those days are rapidly disappearing when some Schools could “rule –the –roost” purely on the brand equity they enjoyed in the market place. Parents today critically assess the “returns” they are likely to accrue from their “investment” in their childrens’ education.
It is, therefore extremely important for Schools today to define themselves in the market place. What does our School stand for? What is that the parents can expect from the School? We at Welham Boys School are very clear about what we want to deliver. We strive to produce young minds who wish to engage with the world of knowledge, minds that are hungry for “more”. It is our considered belief that if the process is right, the results will follow. At the same time, we are committed to developing and enhancing “life skills” - the ability to communicate, to lead, to be a team player, to empathize. And most of all, we are committed to producing citizens with a secular world view, citizens who respect and indeed celebrate differences, and see differences as an unique opportunity to mould a strong nation. We invite you to be partners in this process.
