The Nest at Wheeler takes place on the School’s “Farm” campus acquired by the School’s founder Mary C. Wheeler in 1912. This gorgeous 120-acre property features beautiful woodlands, classrooms, a community garden, high and low ropes challenge course, open fields, trails, wetlands, and an ecological preserve. Our athletic facilities include eight multi-use fields, eight tennis courts, a heated 25–meter outdoor (seasonal) swimming pool, and a field house with three full-size multi-sport courts. It is home to the Wheeler Summer Camp, Wheeler School’s Athletic program, 6th-grade Farm program, and other unique Wheeler programming. Located in Seekonk, Massachusetts, 15 minutes from Providence, this is the quintessential nature-based environment where kids can have hands-on experiences to learn and have fun.
We are thrilled that you are interested in touring The Nest at Wheeler.
During these tours you will have the opportunity to hear from Michelle Dolan, Director of The Nest, view the facilities, and get a sneak peak of our new building that is scheduled to open in the fall of 2025! All family members are welcome to attend these visits.
