Cockwell Hall
With deepest appreciation, we extend our heartfelt thanks to the visionary lead donors whose extraordinary generosity is bringing Cockwell Hall to life.
Your leadership is inspiring a lasting legacy. We are equally grateful to every member of our community who has contributed—your support and belief in this project are making it possible. Together, we are building the future of Appleby College. And while remarkable progress has been made, the need for support continues. Every gift brings us closer to completing Cockwell Hall and ensuring our students have the spaces they need to learn, live, and thrive.
Cockwell Hall, which broke ground in May 2025, is a project that will redefine how our students learn, connect, and grow. More than just a building, this innovative addition will enrich the Appleby experience with over 400 square metres of state-of-the-art classroom space, a 135-square metre Innovation & Technology Lab, and new adaptive learning environments designed to spark creativity and discovery. Cockwell Hall will also expand our boarding community with eight new double dorm rooms and a Don apartment, seamlessly connected to Walker House. Like the Memorial Classroom Building and the A.W.B. Alumni Centre for Athletics and Student Life, Cockwell Hall will be transformational—shaping the future of Appleby and ensuring our students thrive in an environment built for innovation, connection, and growth.
Financial Assistance
Students deserve every opportunity to pursue an education that excites and challenges them and Appleby College's commitment to Financial Assistance is designed to ensure that students can pursue such an outstanding education. An Appleby education requires a significant commitment, and we believe financial need should never prevent a student from reaching their full potential.
A world-class education not only requires exceptional faculty, programmes, and facilities, but it also demands a diverse socioeconomic student body. Having a talented range of students, regardless of their backgrounds, is one of the central hallmarks of great schools and it's a vital part of the Appleby College experience.
All Financial Assistance decisions at Appleby are need-based and are designed to assist families who believe in an Appleby education but are unable to meet the full financial commitments.

Preparing Students to Thrive in Life and Learning
At Appleby, our goal is that every student graduates with a strong sense of self, mental health literacy, and the wellbeing strategies needed to navigate the demands of a complex world. To achieve this, we are investing in enhanced academic learning support and mental health services; expanding faculty training and expertise; providing students with meaningful self-knowledge tools and assessments; offering parents education and resources on learning needs, Positive Psychology, and mental health; and extending outreach to alumni as they continue their life journeys.
With this bold vision for wellbeing in education, Appleby is shaping a future where we not only strengthen our own community, but also become a Centre of Excellence—building and sharing wellbeing knowledge and practices across the educational sector and wider society. Our work is guided by five key domains that ensure every member of our community is supported to learn, grow, and thrive:
Mental Health
