Try the below VBA code:

Sub InsertPageNumberForEndnotes()

Dim endNoteCount As Integer
Dim curPageNumber As Integer

If ActiveDocument.Endnotes.Count > 0 Then

For endNoteCount = 1 To ActiveDocument.Endnotes.Count

Selection.GoTo What:=wdGoToEndnote, Which:=wdGoToAbsolute, Count:=endNoteCount
curPageNumber = Selection.Information(wdActiveEndPageNumber)
ActiveDocument.Endnotes(endNoteCount).Range.Select
ActiveDocument.Application.Selection.Collapse (WdCollapseDirection.wdCollapseStart)
ActiveDocument.Application.Selection.Paragraphs(1).Range.Characters(1).InsertBefore "Page " & CStr(curPageNumber) & " - "


Next
End If

End Sub
