ELISE GILLESPIE OL (1999)

As I reflect on my first year as Chair of the Lauriston Foundation, I am filled with gratitude for the opportunity to continue my family’s legacy in supporting Lauriston. My own school days at Lauriston hold cherished memories, as does our enduring connection to Howqua through Gillespie House.

In my role as Foundation Chair, I am excited to collaborate with our Board of Directors to offer strategic insight, advocacy, and fundraising support for Lauriston Girls’ School.

The year 2023 marked significant milestones for Lauriston. We celebrated the opening of the Year 5/6 Centre, which embodies our commitment to providing exceptional education at every level. Additionally, the triumphant

‘ I am delighted to continue my family’s connection to Lauriston. I have fond memories of my school days, and our lifelong connection to Howqua through Gillespie House. ’

return of music to Hamer Hall after the pandemic underscore our dedication to holistic development and the arts.

Moreover, the Howqua campus commemorated its 30th anniversary — a testament to its enduring impact on generations of Lauriston students. To honour this milestone and address the growing demand and increased enrolments at Lauriston, the Foundation launched a new campaign to raise funds for an additional house at Howqua. The response from our community has been heartwarming, and the Back to Howqua Day united past and present students, staff, and supporters in celebration.

Throughout the history of the Lauriston Foundation, funds have been raised to enable the development of facilities and programs that provide girls with equal

access to education opportunities. This commitment is evident in our most recent building campaign, It’s Her Turn.

I extend my gratitude to all who have supported Lauriston this year, whether through contributions to the meanstested Scholarship, leaving a lasting legacy in the new Sport precinct, or contributing to the new house at Howqua. Your generosity sustains our vision and enriches the Lauriston experience for all.

I would also like to acknowledge the invaluable contributions of outgoing Chair of the Foundation, Alice Robinson, as well as the continuing support of Chair of Council, Claudette Leeming, and Principal Susan Just. Your leadership and guidance have been instrumental in shaping Lauriston’s journey in 2023.

‘ The education we receive shapes us as individuals. The learning environments we create are about the people who inhabit them and the ability of the space to enable relationship building and approaches to learning which meet the needs of each student. ’

Loris Malaguzzi, a central figure in the development of the Reggia Emilia approach to education, wrote in 1984 that we value space because of its power to organize, promote pleasant relationships between people of different ages, create a handsome environment, provide changes, promote choices and activities, and its potential for sparking all kinds of social, effective and cognitive learning. All this contributes to a sense of wellbeing and security in children. Indeed, the Reggia Emilia philosophy prioritizes the environment as the ‘third teacher’, because it contains educational content and messages and is charged with stimuli toward interactive experiences and constructive learning.

Throughout 2023, our students and teachers had the opportunity to utilize the learning spaces of the Year 5/6 Centre, Ullmer Sports and Wellbeing Centre and the Adventure Playground. By way of example and from an architectural perspective we were able to offer our teachers and students the diverse spaces needed for learning and in the Year 5/6 Centre, each classroom offered different opportunities for our teachers to explore approaches to teaching and learning. The common areas became places for learning and for recreation. The tinkering space was

filled with activities which enhanced creativity, problem solving and working collaboratively. The teachers and students have commented on the calm atmosphere of the Year 5/6 Centre which has been supported through acoustic treatments, colour palette and air quality. The Year 5/6 Centre provides a window to the history of Lauriston Girls’ School, with visible reminders of the gymnasium that was, and the architectural design of the original building being maintained.

In 2023 Lauriston celebrated the 30th anniversary of our Howqua campus. Above all things, our Howqua students present, past and future, have become connected with our campus and the surrounding High Country through which they travelled. They developed a relationship with the place which was their home for twelve months and with the people who live and work there and with the external environment in which they had the time to experience its sounds, smells and shifting appearances throughout the day and night.

Howqua is a place of powerful learning where young people learn about themselves and their capacity for accepting challenges. They learn to become more resilient and independent and forge relationships with their peers that may last for the rest of their lives.

It was with excitement that we announced the construction of a new Howqua student house and throughout the year the fundraising target of $300,000 was successfully reached. The Howqua student house will mirror our current student houses. The architecture of our student houses fits well with the terrain on our Howqua campus and provides our students not only with sufficient space for themselves but also to align themselves as a ‘family’. The architecture of any building at Howqua, including student houses, is focused on how comfortably it will sit within the environment without detracting from the surrounding bushland setting. We will continue to work towards the construction of the Howqua House in readiness for its first group of Howqua students in 2026.

In 2023 construction began on the Blairholme Early Learning Centre and our focus has been the creation of an environment which will be the ‘third teacher’ as expressed through the Reggia Emilia philosophy of education.

The Blairholme Early Learning Centre has been designed to create a safe space for our children, with an emphasis on their physical and emotional wellbeing. We aim, through design, to create spaces for learning and social interaction. We will have a number of children attending the Blairholme Early Learning Centre with

Principal’s

their siblings and within our design considerations for this building, we have created spaces where they will be able to observe each other on a daily basis.

At Lauriston we give as much attention to the outdoor spaces as we do to the indoor spaces because they are also learning spaces for our children and young people. Attention was given to the landscape design for the Adventure Playground, Year 5/6 Centre and the Ullmer Sports and Wellbeing Centre and it was a pleasure to observe the children and young people use these outdoor spaces throughout 2023 for both play and learning. Our Howqua campus environment also follows a carefully designed landscape

plan using appropriate planting for the region in which our campus was established.

There is a carefully planned landscape design for the Blairholme Early Learning Centre with work beginning on the plan in 2023. The landscape design maintains important established trees and green spaces while adding new play spaces for the children where they can develop their physical skills and use their creativity and imaginations.

It is our intention to establish an Indigenous garden when construction of the tennis courts along Malvern Road begins in 2024. A design plan has been established which also includes garden spaces for our four Houses — Andrews,

Irving, Kirkhope and Mitchell. We aim to involve our alumni in the planting and ongoing use of these garden spaces.

The education we receive shapes us as individuals. The learning environments we create are about the people who inhabit them and the ability of the space to enable relationship building and approaches to learning which meet the needs of each student.

We appreciate the support of our Lauriston Foundation and the generosity of our School community and the broader community. At the heart of our work as educators is to support our students to flourish in their lives and make a positive contribution to the world they will live in.

2023 ANNUAL REPORT 7

Advancement Team Report

Reflections on 2023: A Year of Impact and Connection

My journey with Lauriston Girls’ School has been deeply intertwined with its history and innovative spirit. Founded in 1901 by the Irving Sisters, Lauriston was established with a commitment to providing an education that would empower young women through academic excellence, sporting involvement, and a focus on the importance of living purposeful and fulfilling lives.

The Irving Sisters were pioneers in girls’ education, introducing groundbreaking ideas and practices that have shaped Lauriston’s ethos to this day. One such innovation was the introduction of hockey to the school, with the sisters bringing hockey sticks and equipment from England. In 1903, Lauriston held its first inter-school hockey match, marking the beginning of a sporting tradition that continues to today.

In 1993, Lauriston launched an Australian-first girls’ program for its Year 9 students at its Howqua campus in the Victorian High Country. Howqua offers Year 9 students the opportunity to participate in a full year of pastoral, academic, and outdoor programs

‘‘ The future comes not from before to greet us but streams up from behind. ’’
— Lauristonian editorial, 1935

designed to help each girl achieve her personal best and prepare them with the resilience, independence, and confidence for their senior years and beyond. This initiative continues the legacy of the Irving Sisters’ vision, ensuring that Lauriston remains at the forefront of girls’ education.

In 2023, we celebrated significant milestones in both hockey and at the Howqua campus. As a school, Lauriston continues to evolve and change, but we never forget the vision of the Irving Sisters. We will continue to do things differently, always striving to support Lauriston students now and in the future.

I am often asked about the meaning of advancement in the context of Lauriston, and I explain that it is about progress. The Advancement Team

develops and executes strategies to advance Lauriston to where it wants to be in the future. This forwardthinking approach is essential for the school’s advancement, and the team plays a crucial role in accomplishing that vision. However, we recognise that we cannot do this alone. We are grateful for the support from the school’s leadership and the wider school community.

Reflecting on our past helps to drive us forward. By honoring the legacy of the Irving Sisters and embracing innovation, the Lauriston community continues to lead the way in girls’ education, empowering young women to achieve their full potential and make a positive impact on the world.

Lauriston Celebrates 30 Years of Howqua with New House for Students

2023 was a year of celebration as we commemorated 30 years of Howqua. Aptly, this was also the year it was decided an additional house was needed at Howqua to accommodate the growing interest in this unique and lifechanging program.

Our annual appeal was launched in May with a focus on raising funds for the new house and once again, I am struck by the generosity of our families and their enthusiastic support of a

School that has provided and continues to provide an outstanding education for their daughters. Since joining the Advancement team two years ago, it is this sense of community that stands out above all; not only from our parents, past and present, but from our former students.

As we celebrated 30 years of Howqua and the growth of a program that equips our girls with invaluable life skills, it was heartwarming to witness the delight of past Howquarians as they re-visited the campus in October

and to hear the touching words of our guest speakers as they told their stories and spoke of the significant impact the experience has had on their lives.

It is a privilege to be part of a community that is so actively committed to advancing this wonderful School and I consider myself fortunate to work in a role that helps to facilitate these advancements.

Celebrating 30 Years of Howqua Advancement Team Report

On the unforgettable Sunday 15 October 2023, Lauriston overflowed with joy as over 500 guests, alumnae, and families reunited at Howqua, marking three decades of transformative education with heartfelt celebration.

Amidst the embrace of the Lauriston community, emotions ran deep, swirling with nostalgia and gratitude. It was a moment to pause, to reminisce over the journey of the past thirty years of the Howqua program, and to honour the individuals whose dedication had woven its fabric.

For the alumnae of Howqua, it was a poignant opportunity to reconnect with their past, to wander the houses, tracing memories etched into bed-slats, and retracing steps along the Ring Road. Among them, pioneers of the campus’ establishment shared in the Celebration Assembly, their presence a testament to the enduring spirit of unity.

Throughout the day, stories intertwined, weaving a tapestry of personal and profound narratives spanning generations. Their words not only echoed tales of Howqua’s embrace but also illuminated the lasting imprint it left on their adult selves. And amidst it all, the sight of Howqua beanies proudly worn served as a tender link to cherished memories.

The current generation of Howqua students, too, lent their voices to the melody of celebration, filling the air with choir harmonies and instrumental melodies. Their gift of thirty tree saplings, destined to root in the campus soil, stood as living monuments to thirty years of growth, both within and beyond the campus.

The previous evening, echoes of laughter and shared stories filled the Mansfield Hotel, where old friends gathered, hearts alight with anticipation for the grand reunion ahead. And in collaboration with the Delatite Winery,

amidst the picturesque backdrop of rolling mountains, old bonds were rekindled, and new memories forged.

Throughout the day, amidst smiles and embraces, the love for each other and for their school radiated, immortalised in the snapshots that captured fleeting moments of pure joy. From the ground to the sky, every angle painted a portrait of unity and affection, a testament to the enduring legacy of Howqua and the bonds that bind its community together.

Portable Heritage

It is not always convenient or sensible to bring along a tangible part of Lauriston’s cultural heritage when celebrating major school events. I have found that photographic banners can evoke memories and engender that sense of being part of a community for our current students and alumnae, who share memories and similar experiences from their time at Lauriston. I also like to include in my banners photographs of school uniform, magazines and objects that relate to events and activities. I find that photographs of tangible items add interest to the banners and showcase items from Lauriston’s archival collection.

I have two events from 2023 that are good examples of the importance of having ‘portable heritage’. The first event celebrated 120 years since Lauriston and Ruyton Girls’ Schools competed in their inaugural hockey match in 1901. This was the first girls’ interschool hockey match in Victoria. As Ruyton Girls’ School was awaiting the appointment of a new archivist,

I produced banners with historical images from both school’s archival collections. These banners will be able to be used every five years when Lauriston and Ruyton come together again to compete and celebrate our shared history of hockey. To mark this 120-year milestone in Lauriston’s history of sport, I also produced two Lauriston specific hockey banners, including photographs of our trophies and examples of early hockey sticks from the archival collection.

The second event was the Back to Howqua 30th anniversary celebrations on Sunday 15 October 2023. I developed three photographic banners to be on display for our dignitaries, alumnae, current students, and their families. Two of the banners represented a pictorial summary of Howqua’s milestones and student activities, from Lauriston purchasing the property in 1991 to images of our students at the campus in 2023. I also produced a banner celebrating student traditions at Howqua, including the Howquarian magazine, wearing crocs, receiving a Fredo Frog birthday cake, and writing in the Student Reflections

Book. In the ‘Howqua Traditions’ banner I was able to incorporate photographs of tangible archival collection items, with images from a 2023 Marketing photoshoot to specifically highlight some of our Howqua student traditions and activities at Lauriston’s country campus. The banners were popular with our visitors at the Back to Howqua celebrations and I received positive feedback regarding the selection of images.

I have several display cases around our Armadale campus and will continue to showcase Lauriston’s archival collection that represents the School’s 124-year history. But for school functions that are off campus, photographic banners with their ‘portable heritage’, are a great way to provide a colourful backdrop for Lauriston events and evoke wonderful memories for our alumnae and extended community.

From a Gym to a Year 5/6 Centre

PENNY

‘‘ We extended our support to the Year 5/6 Centre based on the belief that it would significantly enhance the school environment and offer a source of enthusiasm for the girls eagerly anticipating the new facility. We have a daughter in Year 6 this year and know that she is loving her new classroom! ’’ — Yau Family

We were excited to celebrate the start of the new school year with the opening of our new unified Junior School, including the Year 5/6 Centre and Prep classrooms on Friday 3 February 2023.

This new centre has state of the art classrooms, modern technology, and a dynamic learning environment designed to inspire and support the growth of our students, while still preserving some of the historical elements of the existing building by renowned Melbourne Architect Daryl Jackson AO.

The refurbishment of the School’s old gymnasium has resulted in spacious classrooms with collaboration zones and breakout spaces. These spaces

facilitate group work amongst the students. The new Tinkering Studio in the Year 5/6 Centre enables Lauriston to further embed technology and entrepreneurial skills into our currulcum. At Lauriston, we are conscious of the need to prepare our students for jobs that don’t yet exist — many of which will be in technology where women are underrepresented.

The construction of this new centre was made possible as part of It’s Her Turn, Lauriston’s 10 Year Masterplan.

The success of the It’s Her Turn capital campaign, with more than 240 donors raising over $4 million to date, and growing, is the most successful fundraising campaign in the School’s history. It has been recognised by independent schools across Australia,

as a pivotal change in support for girls and independent girls’ schools. It has demonstrated clearly that the culture of giving is alive and well at Lauriston. This masterplan is possible only because of the generosity of current and past Lauriston families, alumnae, staff and students, before you, but for you.

We would like to thank the following families who were major supporters of the new Year 5/6 Centre:

Rockman family, Ding and Jiang family (bottom left), Yau family (bottom centre), Wu family (bottom right), Yu and Sun family.

Lauriston Celebrates 30 Years of Howqua with a New House for Students

PENNY

‘ In 2023, Lauriston celebrated 30 years since the opening of Howqua, a transformative experience for Year 9 students — a home away from home immersed in nature. Over three decades, Howqua has nurtured hundreds of students, fostering resilience and growth. ’

14 2023 ANNUAL REPORT

The success of the Howqua program has led to an increase in student enrolments, necessitating the construction of a new house to accommodate Lauriston students. Just as 30 years ago, when Lauriston parents supported the vision of Howqua, the community has once again demonstrated its commitment to continuing Howqua’s legacy.

More than 150 donors contributed to surpass our fundraising target, raising $306,000 for the new house. These future Howquarians will embark on their year in the High Country knowing they have the full support of the Lauriston community behind them.

We thank everyone who contributed to the new house at Howqua, and we look forward to celebrating another significant chapter in the history of Howqua.

We express our warmest gratitude to the following major supporters who have contributed to the new Howqua house

Indigenous Garden

Cultivating Cultural Connection: Lauriston’s Indigenous Garden Project

PENNY

FOWLER

As part of Lauriston’s ongoing commitment to Cultural Safety, we are embarking on a significant project alongside the next phases of the Lauriston Masterplan. We are excited to announce the development of an Indigenous garden, which will be situated in the area currently occupied by the kindergarten, adjacent to the Ullmer Sports and Wellbeing Centre.

The construction of this garden will be a collaborative effort, guided by

consultation with Indigenous Elders of the Wurundjeri Woi Wurrung Cultural Heritage Aboriginal Corporation. It will feature Indigenous plants and shrubs, carefully selected to honor and respect the cultural significance of the land.

Once the Blairholme Early Learning Centre and Kindergarten precinct is complete, and the existing kindergarten and demountables are removed, we will have a beautiful garden space flanking the pathway. This space will include pathways, raised planter forms, and various artistic, sculptural, and signage elements, all complementing the existing Manna Gum, which holds cultural significance.

We are excited about the opportunities this garden will provide for our students and the wider Lauriston community. It will serve as a peaceful retreat for contemplation, reflection, and a deeper understanding of our local Indigenous community.

We extend our heartfelt thanks to the Hu Family Charity Fund, for their generous support of the Indigenous Garden project.

“We are very happy to support building the Indigenous garden. We believe such a garden not only adds to the beautiful landscape of the campus but also celebrates reconciliation and the belief in harmony.“

Leaving a Legacy and Supporting the Future

Lauriston Girls School’s Elizabeth Kirkhope Circle

May 2023)

Lauriston Girls’ School, renowned for its commitment to academic excellence and empowering young women, continues to be a school for life, through enduring support for the Elizabeth Kirkhope Circle (EKC). With the recent addition of two new members, Suzie Brown OAM (OL 1959) and Dr Mark Roberts, the EKC strengthens its legacy of contributing to the ongoing success of the school.

The EKC serves as a testament to the deep-rooted ties individuals develop with Lauriston. It is a collective effort by alumnae, parents, and friends who wish to leave a lasting impact on future generations. The recent induction of Suzie and Mark demonstrates their dedication to preserving the school’s values and enriching its educational endeavours.

The annual EKC luncheon, held at the RACV City Club on 2 May, was an occasion of celebration and reflection. It provided the perfect setting to officially welcome Suzi Brown and Mark Roberts as the newest members of this community. Surrounded by fellow supporters and guests, the luncheon showcased the commitment and generosity of the Lauriston community.

At the luncheon, two Junior School students took centre stage, offering insights into life at Lauriston today. Their stories highlighted the Junior School learning environment that fosters growth, encourages creativity,

The Elizabeth Kirkhope Circle was established in 2011 to honour benefactors who have chosen to support the School directly through a gift in their Will, and commemorates the legacy of Miss Kirkhope who strongly advocated for the continued growth and progression of girls’ education. ’

and inspires young minds. They also shed light on the school’s progressive approach to education, with an emphasis on the integration of technology into the curriculum. Through innovative initiatives, Lauriston ensures its students are well-equipped to navigate the ever-evolving digital landscape and become future leaders in their respective fields.

Claudette Leeming (OL 1991), Chair of the School Council, shared her lifelong connection to Lauriston. Reflecting on her own experiences as a student, parent, and now a key figure in the school’s leadership, Claudette emphasized the significance of the Elizabeth Kirkhope Circle in upholding the Lauriston’s values and

securing its future. She expressed her gratitude to all Circle members for their unwavering support, recognising that their contributions serve as a beacon of inspiration and dedication.

The Elizabeth Kirkhope Circle encapsulates the spirit of Lauriston Girls’ School — a spirit of unity, generosity, and lifelong commitment. It allows individuals to forge a lasting impact on the lives of future students and contribute to the school’s enduring success.

2023 Huntingtower Spring Celebration

‘ The first day of September holds a special significance as it marks the onset of Spring, a season symbolising renewal, rejuvenation, and new beginnings. The Huntingtower Spring Celebration embodies these sentiments, serving as a beacon of hope and unity for the Lauriston community. ’

Lauriston’s Huntingtower Spring Celebration is more than just an event; it’s a testament to the strength and camaraderie of our community. This gathering brings together members of the Old Lauristonian Association (OLA), past and current Lauriston parents, and dedicated staff to celebrate the essence of our Lauriston family.

None of this would have been possible without the tireless efforts and dedication of the Huntingtower Lunch Committee and the Lauriston Parents Association (LPA). Their

unwavering commitment ensured that the event was a resounding success, creating unforgettable memories for all who attended.

Central to the event were the various fundraising activities, including raffles, silent auctions, and lucky door prizes. Through the collective efforts of our community, we were able to raise an impressive $36,921 towards Lauriston’s Annual Appeal for a new house at Howqua. This significant contribution underscores our commitment to supporting Lauriston’s continued growth and development.

We are immensely grateful to our sponsors and donors whose generous contributions made the event a resounding success. Your support not only facilitates our fundraising efforts but also strengthens the fabric of our Lauriston community.

Our Foundation Scholarship

Her First Year at Lauriston

PENNY

‘ Lauriston, as it stands today, would not be the school it is, had it not been for the generosity of our community, and the culture of paying it forward which has been enshrined in the spirit of our school since its early days. ’

The Foundation Scholarship has been developed with the assistance of Friday Night School in Richmond, with whom Lauriston has a long association, to help students from diverse backgrounds experience the outstanding education and opportunities at Lauriston.

Lauriston students can also volunteer as ‘Friday Night Tutors’ during each term, assisting migrant and refugee students from non-English speaking backgrounds.

In 2023 our inaugural Foundation Scholarship recipient commenced Year 7 at Lauriston. Opposite, is a letter written at the end of her first year of schooling at Lauriston.

Your support has played a pivotal role in enabling her to pursue and experience everything a Lauriston education has to offer.

The wider Lauriston community has supported the Foundation Scholarship

through regular donations, our 2022 Giving Day and the Voluntary Fee Levy.

We are grateful for you supporting Lauriston to be an inclusive school that embraces a wide variety of students from varied backgrounds who can add to the vibrancy and strength of our community.

20 2023 ANNUAL REPORT

Dear supporters of the Lauriston Foundation Scholarship,

As the school year draws to a close, I am writing to express my sincere gratitude for the incredible opportunity this scholarship has afforded me. This year has been transformative, and I find myself reflecting on the positive experiences that have shaped my journey.

The academic environment at Lauriston has provided me with a whole new curriculum, enabling me to develop my teamwork and collaboration skills. Interacting with my classmates has been a rewarding experience, pushing me to excel in ways I hadn’t anticipated.

Of all the subjects, science has emerged as a personal favourite. My science teacher has been inspiring. Their innovative teaching methods have transformed practicals and experiments into exciting and enjoyable learning experiences. Equally, drama has provided me with a space for self-expression, allowing me to embody characters and convey emotions freely. In art lessons, I have been able to translate my feelings on canvas and other mediums.

Participating in Lauriston’s co-curricular program has added another layer to my school experience. From tennis in term one to soccer in term three, and basketball in term four, each sport has contributed to my physical and social development. Joining Lauriston Voices in term two has been a musical journey, culminating in memorable performances at the annual music concert, house music events, and the Years 5 to 8 music celebration assembly. As a proud member of Andrews House, I’ve had the privilege of engaging in various house activities. The house music competition allowed me to showcase my vocal talents in a choir setting, while the house athletics events challenged me physically, from the 1200 metres run to the cross-country race. These experiences have not only enriched my school life but have also instilled in me a sense of belonging.

In closing, I cannot express enough how your support has made all this possible for me. Without you, attending Lauriston would have been an impossible dream. I am inspired and motivated to make the most of this opportunity. Thank you for believing in me, I am truly grateful for your support.

Thank you once again for making a profound impact on my education and shaping the person I am becoming.

Sincerely,

1. Summary of Accounting Policies

Fund equity is currently made up of two sub-funds; The General Education Fund and the Diana Robertson Scholarship Fund. The Diana Robertson Scholarship was awarded each year to one Year 10 student who excels in the subject of History. From 2017 onwards, an amount of $1,600 (prior years the amount was $1,200) is paid each Scholarship recipient’s School fees for Years 11 and 12, subject to the recipient continuing to study History. In 2018 a second Diana Robertson Scholarship was created the study of humanities with the amount to be $1,600.

The Lauriston Foundation (Inc.) is not a reporting entity because, in the Board’s opinion, there are unlikely to exist users of the financial statements who are dependent on general purpose financial reports of The Lauriston Foundation (Inc.) for information. These financial statements are therefore a “Special Purpose Financial Report”. They have been drawn up so as to comply with the requirements of the Rules of The Lauriston Foundation (Inc.) and the Associations Incorporation Reform Act 2012, so as to provide information required by the Board and for the benefit of Members.

Statement of Compliance

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of Rule 11.1 of The Lauriston Foundation (Inc.), Part 7 of the Associations Incorporation Reform Act 2012, the Australian Charities and Not-for-profits Commission Act 2012 and the recognition and measurement criteria specified by all Accounting Standards and the disclosure requirements of Accounting Standards AASB 101, “Presentation of Financial Statements”, AASB 107, “Cashflow Statements” and AASB 108 “Accounting Policies, changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors”, AASB 1048 “Interpretation of Standards” and AABB 1054 “Australian Additional Disclosures”.

For the purpose of this report, the entity is a not for profit entity. The financial report was authorised for issue by the Board on 13 March 2024.

Adoption of New and Revised Accounting Standards

1.1 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards Board and Interpretations that are mandatorily effective for the current year

The Foundation has adopted all the new and revised Standards and Interpretations issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board (AASB) that are relevant to its operations and effective for an accounting period that begins on or after 1 January 2023. Set out below are the new and revised Standards and amendments thereof [and Interpretations] effective for the current year that are relevant to the Foundation:

Pronouncement Impact

AASB 2021-2 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Disclosure of Accounting Policies and Definition of Accounting Estimates

AASB 2022-3 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Illustrative Examples for N ot-for Profit Entities accompanying AASB 15

Requires the disclosure of material accounting policy information and clarifies how entities should distinguish changes in accounting policies and changes in accounting estimates.

The application of the amendments did not have a material impact on the Foundation’s financial statements but has changed the disclosure of accounting policy information in the financial statements.

AASB 2022-3 amends AASB 15 to add a new illustrative example (example 7A) which provides an in-depth analysis on the accounting for upfront fees such as club joining fees and school enrolment fees.

This Standard also documents the AASB’s decisions around concessionary leases in the basis of conclusions accompanying AASB 2022-3, to state that Not-for-profit private sector lessees – The AASB has decided to retain the accounting policy choice in AASB 16 for the right-of-use assets of concessionary leases to initially be measured at cost or fair value on an ongoing basis, where this will be a permanent option with no plans to reconsider in future.

3. Investments

Investments of the Foundation consist of cash at bank and Vanguard Diversified Growth Index Exchange Traded Funds.

4. Other Financial Assets

Financial Instruments – financial assets and liabilities

Classification

The Foundation manages its investment portfolio and classifies its entire portfolio as financial assets at fair value through profit and loss.

Measurement

At initial recognition, the Foundation measures a financial asset at its fair value and subsequent changes in fair value are recognised directly in profit or loss.

equity is currently made up of two sub-funds; The General Education Fund and the Diana Robertson Scholarship Fund. The Diana Robertson Scholarship was awarded each year to one Year 10 student who excels in the subject of History. From 2017 onwards, an amount of $1,600 (prior years the amount was $1,200) is paid each Scholarship recipient’s School fees for Years 11 and 12, subject to the recipient continuing to study History. In 2018 a second Diana Robertson Scholarship was created the study of humanities with the amount to be $1,600.

Dividends

Dividends on equity instruments are recognised as income in profit or loss where the Entity’s right to receive the dividends is established.

Loans and receivables

Trade receivables, loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market and are stated at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method less any impairment.

Effective interest method

The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a financial asset and of allocating interest income over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the financial asset, or, where appropriate, a shorter period. Income is recognised on an effective interest basis for debt instruments other than those at fair value through profit or loss.

Financial liabilities

Non-derivative financial liabilities, including loans and borrowings, are recognised at amortised cost, comprising original debt less principal repayments and amortisation. The Foundation does not hold liabilities for trading.

Fair value estimation

The fair value of financial assets traded in active markets (such as publicly traded securities) is based on quoted market prices at the end of the reporting period. The quoted market price used for financial assets held by the Foundation is the current bid price. The fair value of managed funds is based on the unit price of each fund as reported by the funds at balance sheet date.

Derecognition of financial assets

The Foundation recognises a financial asset only when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire, or it transfers the financial asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the asset to another entity.
