BOARD CHAIR REPORT For the year ended 31 December 2022

The changing landscape of 2022 required patience, flexibility, and fortitude from our staff and students.

In another challenging year, teamwork and the ability to plan, respond and deliver in different modes, at different times and under different circumstances have proved invaluable. Resilience, commitment, and maintaining continuity enabled us to deliver education to all year levels every day. As restrictions lifted in the second half of the year, activity around the campus returned to busy, lively, and typical levels.

Financial Results The College reports a net surplus of $0.62 million for the 2022 year, compared to a net surplus of $1.36 million in 2021. The Group, which includes the College, the Foundation, the Old Collegians Association, and the Parent Teachers Association reports a net loss of $0.99 million for the 2022 year.

The financial statements have been audited by BDO, endorsed by the Board’s Finance and Audit Committee and subsequently approved by the full Board at its meeting on Thursday 25 May 2023.

No issues were raised by BDO in respect of the audit, and they again complimented the efforts of the College’s Financial Controller, Richard Boon and his team. The Board also acknowledges the sound financial management and quality of reporting from the finance team.

Capital Development The Performing Arts Centre and Gough Family Theatre build progressed over the year. We’re excited to see the development take shape and can’t wait for our students to learn, create, and discover their passions from this facility once completed in late 2023.

A canopy over one of the Preparatory School sports turfs, fondly known as the ‘Cloud’, was completed at the end of 2022, and now provides a much-needed covered outdoor space for the sports curriculum.

Two boarding-related undertakings occurred this year. A bathroom upgrade to MacGibbon House was started, and completed early in 2023. MacGibbon House, which is home to Year 9–11 boarding boys, survived the earthquakes making it the oldest boarding house.

A shortage in accommodation for boarding house tutors led to the purchase of a house on Searells Road. This houses two boarding tutors and is in close walking distance of the College.

The capital spend on these projects, along with new classroom, sport, cultural, and IT plant and equipment totalled $8.7 million for the year.

This was funded by cash surpluses, capital development donations of $0.57 million, and further debt. College debt increased by $3 million over the year and ended the year at $6.3 million. At this level, debt is approximately 3.3 per cent of the College’s total assets.

S T AND REW’S CO L L EG E

College Health The school roll is strong, with both the Preparatory School and Secondary School at capacity. We continue to receive more applications than places each year and operate a sizeable waiting list.

Over 97 per cent of those sitting NCEA examinations at each level gained an achieved pass. Students attained a record number of 77 Scholarships across 15 subjects. One student was awarded a Premier Award for being in the top 11 students in New Zealand, and another student received a Top Subject Scholar Award for coming first in Digital Technology in New Zealand. A number of other academic, sporting, and cultural successes added to a flourishing year. These results are a credit to our committed and passionate teaching and co-curricular staff.

We celebrated 30 years since the first intake of 55 girls into the Senior College in 1992. Co-education has only grown and thrived since then, with 667 girls at the College in 2022. For the first time, girls will make up 50 per cent of our Year 9 intake of students in 2024.

The Foundation The St Andrew’s College Foundation which, while a separate legal entity from the College, is very much in the same waka. As the name suggests, the Foundation operates to ensure the long-term viability of the College and oversees the management and prudent investment of donations from the St Andrew’s College community.

The Foundation gave $430,000 to the College in scholarship grants in 2022 which contributed to scholarships offered to students in academic, sport, music, Pipe Band, and areas of endeavour. These grants reflect the strong desire from many donors to provide an opportunity for young people to experience a St Andrew’s College education which would not otherwise be available to them.

While the Foundation’s funds under management have shown significant growth over the past 30 years, 2022 was a challenging year in the global share and fixed interest markets. The average double-digit percentage decline in both markets over the past year was impacted by inflationary pressures and interest rate rises together with continued COVID-19 disruptions and the war in Ukraine. Not unexpectedly, the Foundation’s portfolio followed this movement and currently sits at approximately $12.8 million.

David Boyd generously stepped into the role of Chair of the Foundation this year and we thank him for taking on this responsibility. We welcome Gordon MacLeod, Mark Mulholland and Tom Stanley in their newly appointed roles as Foundation Trustees. I know their combined experience in business, financial markets, and governance will be of great value to the Foundation and College.

I thank the Foundation Trustees for the time and expertise they share to oversee the wise stewardship of the funds held.

Board Changes We bid a fond farewell to Rob Hall and Malcolm Johns as outgoing Board members. Rob joined the Board in 2014 and sat on the Remuneration and Nominations Committee. Malcolm served on the Board and Capital Works Committee for six years.

Both Rob and Malcolm could always be relied upon for considered wise counsel. They contributed greatly to the governance of the school during their respective tenures.

We had a good response for the two vacated Parent Nominee positions on the Board. The Board was seeking to appoint members with a senior executive or strong governance experience, together with a background in development, construction, and health and safety. In December we appointed Alan Merry and Peter Armstrong to fill these positions and warmly welcome them to the Board.

Alan is General Manager at Engenium Consulting Engineers.

He has a background in civil and fire engineering and extensive experience in the construction industry. Alan also sits on the Board of Sports Canterbury. Peter is a chartered engineer and CEO of Westpower. He brings experience in business, strategy, growth, building teams, and asset management. He has advisory board roles at Canterbury University in the engineering field.

Alan and Peter’s knowledge and experience complement the capabilities around the Board table.

Acknowledgements A special thanks to the thoughtful and positive leadership of Rector, Christine Leighton, and the Executive team, and all staff for their continued commitment and passion in making the College a school that we can all be proud of.

In a year of strong performance and results across the many aspects of College life, the Board is incredibly grateful to all those in our school community who play a part in creating a nurturing and inspiring educational environment.

RECTOR’S REPORT For the year ended 31 December 2022

2022 will be recalled by many as the year when things returned to more normality after the lockdowns, restrictions and gatherings, cancelled events and travel, and widespread mask-wearing of the last two and a half years.

But the first six months of this year certainly came with challenges as sickness reached levels not seen before in our lifetime. Operating a school under these conditions became increasingly difficult. Thanks to the resilience, goodwill, and dedication of our staff, we were able to continue to deliver education at all year levels every day, despite absenteeism of students and staff rising to around 30 per cent on any given day.

Our students too managed periods of extended absence with a commitment to use online learning to keep up with learning programmes.

Over the last five months of the year, classroom and co-curricular activities resumed at pace and there were remarkable successes to celebrate, including outstanding successes from NCEA and Scholarship examinations.

SCHOOL ROLL By the end of the school year, the average roll for 2022 was 1141.7 in the Secondary School and 452.7 in the Preparatory School, with a total average of 1594.5 students.

The beginning of 2022 saw 13 new teaching staff join the College (nine in the Secondary School and four in the Preparatory School).

ACADEMIC / NCEA 2022 was another exceptional year for the College in NCEA results with 99.1% at Level 1, 100% at Level 2 and 98% at Level 3. Excellence endorsements across the three year levels totalled 274 with 98 at Level 1, 99 at Level 2, and 77 at Level 3. 87.7% of our Year 13 students gained University Entrance. At the end-of‑year Scholarship awards, there were 77 scholarships (including 12 outstanding), three Outstanding Scholar Awards to Toby Harvie, Luke Zhu and Tom Edwards, a Top Subject Scholar Award to Tom Edwards for Digital Technology, and the most prestigious Premier Award to Corin Simcock as one of the top 11 students in New Zealand. St Andrew’s has had three Premier Award winners in the last 12 years, Sarah Wright in 2011, Russell Boey in 2018, and now Corin in 2022.

NCEA Results Level 1 – 99.1%

Level 2 – 100%

Level 3 – 98%

Merit Endorsements Level 1 – 77

Level 2 – 78

Level 3 – 66

Jasmine Hooker (Year 10) was part of a chamber group (Berlin Trio Chamber group) with two other students, placing second in the New Zealand Secondary School Chamber Competition.

At the Hororata Highland Games, our Pipe Band won the best overall band. The Pipe Band Nationals were cancelled in March due to COVID-19 restrictions. Two pipers and two drummers were members of the New Zealand youth band.

Cindy Xiong (Year 13) won the National Young Performer Competition in Speech and Drama in Palmerston North.

The Festival of the Spoken Word was held in The Green Library and Innovation Centre and winners of various categories were Slam Poetry – Lily Champion-Smith (Year 13); Individual – Katie Foot (Year 9), Theodore Meek (Year 10), Isobel Forsey (Year 11), Lucas Te Rangi (Year 12); Impromptu – Thomas Kamo; Mark Ellerm Cup for Senior Public Speaking (overall best speaker) – Lily Champion-Smith.

Year 12 Media students, Marco Leighs, Struan Gordon and Bede Miller, won third prize at the International Youth Silent Film Festival for their film Amica.

Both the Senior and Middle School Productions were delivered despite the College having no access to a drama room or theatre, and both were delivered to the now-expected St Andrew’s standards. The Senior College Production, Songs for a New World, performed in Gym 1 and the Middle School Production, Antoinette’s Showstoppers, performed at the Ngaio Marsh Theatre at UCSA were both outstanding successes. At the end of the year, the St Andrew’s College Ballet Academy presented its Greatest Hits also in Gym 1. This production was a celebration of the 10-year milestone for our St Andrew’s College Ballet Academy.

At Rockquest, Black Wired and Afterglows went through to the regional finals. Cindy Xiong (Year 13) won the Best Use of Electronic Assist award. In the Ara JazzQuest our Soul Band won a gold award, the Big Band a silver, and the Jazz Orchestra a bronze.

In the Canterbury Junior Regional Debating Tournament, St Andrew’s came second, and the senior team won the title over Christ’s College.

Duke of Edinburgh’s Hillary Award Thirteen Year 13 students earned their Gold Duke of Edinburgh’s Hillary Award and 10 students gained New Zealand Representative Honours in cultural pursuits. These national awards represent an outstanding level of commitment from the students involved.

CALENDAR EVENTS Many memorable events presented opportunities for student leaders to shine throughout the year. Secondary School assemblies showcased student humour and talent with Leadership, Academic, Founders’ Day, Prefects’, Boarders’ and Cultural Assemblies. The Prefects’ Assembly, Hunger Games, was a highlight. The Year 11 Semi-formal and the Senior College Formal, in Gym 1, were once again much anticipated and enjoyable events for all.

College Athletics, Swimming Sports, and Cross Country were held, along with many other events, including Highland Games, Polyfest, Schools’ Pride Week, Board Dinner, Presbyterian Church Schools’ Conference, Te Wiki o te Reo Māori (Māori Language Week), StAC Ag Show, Ladies Circle Christmas Chapel Service and Luncheon, and Cultural Week.

Much to the delight of Year 13 students and their families we were able to host the final event of the year, the Leavers’ Dinner, at the Te Pae Convention Centre. This is always a special event for Year 13 students and their families, and it is gratifying to see the positive relationship that has developed between staff and students.

Old Collegian Events Due to COVID-19 restrictions, our 50 and 60 Year On Reunions were both cancelled and will be held in 2023. We held a very successful Double 40 Years On Reunion, with 88 in attendance in July. The Annual Dinner in August attracted 110 guests, peer years 1949–2017. Three Old Collegians were honoured with the annual awards: the Maginness Cup for Excellence in Sport – Charlotte Elley (OC 2014), the Cockram Cultural Award for Excellence and Service to Culture – Sandy McCutcheon (OC 1964) and the Alister Newton Cup for Service – Professor Ronald W. Jones CNZM (OC 1957). It was a great evening of fun, friendship and fraternity. Our Gentlemen’s Luncheon was also very well attended with 90 Old Collegians aged between 74–99 joining us for lunch.

This also incorporated our 70 Years On (Class of 1952–1956).

An Auckland Reunion was well attended, and the 1st XV Rugby Reunion welcomed 73 Old Collegians and their partners. The OCA Golf Tournament had 95 golfers registered for its annual match at Waitakere Golf Course in late October. In December, the College hosted a Strowan Gathering as a Pipe Band fundraiser.

The significant milestone of 2022 was that St Andrew’s College marked 30 years of co-education. We held a special celebration in September with a ‘walk down memory lane’ presentation in the Centennial Chapel, followed by a cocktail party in Strowan House. Close to 100 guests joined us, many of whom were our Old Girls from 1992–1999. The final OCA event for the year was the 10 Years On reunion with 65 attendees (Leavers of 2012).

Castle Hill Outdoor Education The Castle Hill Outdoor Education facility has been fully operational throughout 2022. Operations Manager, Jo Parsons and her team, supported by many staff who attend camps, have designed programmes that build physical, social, character, and leadership development over consecutive years. We are grateful that the College has had access to this environment since 1965 when the first St Andrew’s College mountain lodge was opened.

The Alistair Sidey Mountain Lodge, which was built in 2007, provides a wonderful facility where our students develop resilience, grit, self-belief, and lifelong memories.

Performing Arts Centre The Performing Arts Centre, which includes the Gough Family Theatre, is part way through construction and completion is expected at the end of 2023. This much anticipated new facility will support our thriving Performing Arts programme.

DEVELOPMENT OFFICE AND REUNIONS

A canopy over one of the Preparatory School sports turfs was finished and provides much-needed covered outdoor space for the sports curriculum. We are grateful to the PTA who have supported both of these projects through donations as well as a new hockey goal, Airtime Hoops, live streaming equipment, and choir uniforms.

Miranda Newbury resigned as Director of Development from May 2022. Development fundraising continued with $648,121 raised through 2022. Rector, Christine Leighton, oversaw the Development office of Development Co-ordinator, Mel Rissman, and Alumni and Community Relations Co-ordinator, Lisa Clark, and supported the 10 alumni events organised by Lisa Clark.

All events were well attended with the 30 Years of Co-ed celebration a special highlight.

PRIZEGIVING CEREMONY St Andrew’s College 106th Prizegiving was held at the Christchurch Arena which is a celebration of so much achieved in a year and the entertainment provided by our talented musicians, singers, dancers, Kapa Haka and Pipe Band, was first class.

The Head Prefects, Harry Withers and Grace Lawrence, impressively delivered the Heads of College Valedictory Speeches, and the Heads of College for 2023 were announced.

In an unprecedented joint award, Luke Zhu, Toby Harvie and Corin Simcock were all named College Dux, with Tom Edwards as Proxime Accessit.

It has been a tradition at our Prizegiving ceremony over the last 14 years to honour a teacher with the Marily Scanlon Award for Teaching Excellence acknowledging outstanding service. This year’s recipient is Head of Drama and Dance, Laurence Wiseman, who has been teaching at the College since 2014. Not only does Mr Wiseman have an outstanding record of student achievement in his NCEA Drama classes, with his students gaining outstanding levels of Excellence endorsements, but he has delivered 14 Senior Productions which have become widely renowned for their entertainment value, skilled performances, and magical storytelling.

I also acknowledge Val Wells who has been arranging flowers for Prizegiving for over 45 years, and Mike Smith who has organised all the Secondary School awards (356 presented each year) for the last 21 years.

FOUNDATION The current trustees, David Boyd, Richard Smith and Mark Lancaster, were joined by new appointees Gordon McLeod, Mark Mulholland and Tom Stanley.

CONCLUSION The above summary of 2022, reports only the specific goals and initiatives for the current year. These must be considered alongside the business as usual which includes curriculum delivery, teaching and learning, and the multitude of co‑curricular opportunities at St Andrew’s. The College has strong leadership in areas of innovative practice. Progress is dependent upon leaders’ ability to develop a vision, plan steps, and delivery through to implementation. The progress made throughout 2022 recognises the strong leadership of multiple leaders throughout the College.

Once again, I recognise and thank the service of the Board of Governors and especially Board Chair, Felicity Odlin. Teachers and support staff have once again given generously of their energy and expertise to ensure students at St Andrew’s College enjoy such a wealth of opportunity. Stephen Higgs and the PTA, Sam Crosbie and the OCA, Alison Ballantyne and the Ladies Circle, and David Boyd and the Foundation, have also engaged the St Andrew’s College parent and Old Collegian community, reminding us of our College whakataukī, He waka eke noa.

SPECIAL CHARACTER AND COMMUNITY SERVICE In 2022, the St Andrew’s College students and extended community enjoyed several College Sunday and special services in the Centennial Chapel, including our annual ANZAC and Christmas Eve services. All students in the Secondary School participated in community service activities, as did the younger students, particularly during the 40-hour Famine. The St Andrew’s partnership with the charity So They Can resulted in a donation of $28,716 to our partnership school, Mwikantsi, in Tanzania. A number of other charities and local organisations were also the beneficiaries of St Andrew’s College students’ energies and fundraising efforts with a total of $39,463 gifted to various charities.

WHOLE SCHOOL GOALS 2022

The Whole School Goals identified in October 2021 have been well met. (These goals resulted from the publication of our 2019–2023 Strategic Framework.)

Thanks to the planning, focus, and attention of the staff responsible, significant progress has been made in all areas.

Annual Plan Review DIMENSION 1:

Values and Culture The focus areas for 2022 were resuming our Castle Hill Outdoor Education Programmes, the gathering of student voice to develop the agency of our ākonga, and focusing on student well-being in health programmes across the College. Under the leadership of our Castle Hill Outdoor Education Centre Operations Manager, Jo Parsons, Castle Hill programmes ran successfully for all Year 7–10 classes, plus leadership camps and support for Duke of Edinburgh’s adventurous journeys. The Adventure Activities Regulation Audit was completed successfully.

The student Well-being Committee and College prefects led awareness on well-being with a number of fun activities and student assemblies where student opinions and perspectives were shared. Health programmes aligned with messaging from Te Waka and Pastoral Care initiatives, and WOOP was introduced as a goal-setting framework. The Mahia te Aroha Awards were celebrated and a student well-being hui was initiated by the St Andrew’s College Well-being Committee in conjunction with Hillmorton High School and Mahia te Aroha.

DIMENSION 2:

Teaching and Learning With the significant COVID-19 disruption to Terms 1 and 2, the focus was supporting the continuation of individual learning for every student, be it online while isolating at home or in class, often with a teacher absent. Through the use of technology and online platforms, teachers managed learning and assessment successfully throughout this period. The collaborative culture between colleagues was critical throughout this challenging phase and students were also assisted by Learning Support, Deans, Pastoral Care staff and the Counselling team.

Digital Citizenship: Through Digital Literacy lessons, Health programmes, and Te Waka, an integrated approach was developed to identify the critical behaviours and decisions which underpin good digital citizenship, particularly in Years 7–11. This work will be further developed in 2023.

Te Ao Māori/Te Tiriti o Waitangi: Significant mahi went into developing a shared strategy and understanding of Te Ao Māori. All staff had opportunities to learn more about Te Tiriti o Waitangi, Ngāi Tahu Treaty Settlement, and Mana Whenua history of the Castle Hill area. Preparations and planning were underway for the Aotearoa New Zealand Histories Curriculum in both the Preparatory and Secondary Schools. A whole school strategy was prepared identifying Te Ao Māori principles at Hatō Anaru focusing on Whanaungatanga, Manaakitanga, Kaitiakitanga, Te Reo Rangatira, Mātauranga Māori, Rangatiratanga, Te Tiriti o Waitangi.

S T AND REW’S CO L L EG E

DIMENSION 3:

Leadership and Governance People and Business Manager: Justine Scott began in this new position at the start of 2022. Fortnightly Business Executive meetings were introduced, and two new staff were employed to support the business office. HR processes were reviewed, and plans were developed with CIO and the IT team for improved functionality. Managing staff COVID-19 absences was a significant challenge for the first two terms.

Cybersafety: Know Be 4 and eSafelyHQ were used to better educate staff and students – key messaging for students through Year 9 Digital Literacy classes, Te Waka, Deans’ periods, and Middle School and Senior College Assemblies.

DIMENSION 4:

Resources and Environment Risk Management: A new risk identification and reporting template was designed to report risks to the Board. Low, medium, and high-risk areas were identified, and appropriate mitigations were put in place. This will continue as a regular management tool for Board reporting. As a result, a new senior management position with oversight for strategy, procedures, and implementation for health and safety across the College will be actioned in 2023.

At each Board meeting the identified areas of risk were reported to the Board. Actions were recorded and these will be the focus of the 2023 reporting. High-risk areas identified were Health and Safety, COVID-19, Cyber security, issues of the time, and student mental health/well-being.

COVID-19 Management: COVID-19 officers and leadership teams responded quickly to changing environments. Risk management and logistics plans were created.

Continuous learning plans ensured teaching and learning continued for all students, and business continuity plans were created for support staff teams. Regular communication with families ensured parents were kept well informed and Power BI reports kept management informed of the COVID-19 impact on a daily basis.

Gough Family Theatre and Performing Arts Centre: Good progress was made on the project despite COVID-19 disruptions.

A shutdown during examination time has delayed the completion date to the end of November 2023. The project has been well managed to date.

REVIEW OF NCEA AND SCHOLARSHIP 2022

Our 2022 NCEA results included a total of 274 Excellence endorsements and 221 Merit endorsements, as well as 77 New Zealand Scholarships, twelve of which were Outstanding Scholarships. At Level 1, students gained 98 Excellence endorsements, at Level 2, 99 Excellence endorsements, and at Level 3, 65 Excellence endorsements.

High academic achievement is celebrated at the College with students striving to achieve NCEA Excellence endorsements, Merit endorsements, and College premier academic awards. A good number of students are also recognised for their performance in national and international competitions.

Staff are working intensively towards the achievement of our target of all students completing each year of study having achieved the relevant NCEA Level certificate. The College has very effective processes for monitoring and tracking student progress and achievement, such as individual student monitoring and extensive tracking of student achievement throughout all year groups.

PUBLIC BENEFIT REPORT For the year ended 31 December 2022

The purpose of this Public Benefit Report is to show how St Andrew’s College engages with the wider community and encourages access to its education to the fullest extent of its resources. This report, read in conjunction with the Annual Report, adds information about activities of a non-financial nature.

The College is a registered charity (CC22462) and the charitable objectives relevant to this report include: • to provide a school or schools with facilities and atmosphere to promote sound learning and foster the development of life and character on the basis of the Presbyterian tradition; • to accept contributions, collections, donations, legacies, devises, gifts, grants, and subsidies.

The beneficiaries of the College’s constitution include students, parents, staff, Old Collegians, and such other charitable purpose as the Presbytery of Christchurch shall direct. St Andrew’s College is also supported through financial grants from the St Andrew’s College Foundation from time to time.

The College is committed to providing access to its educational programme and encourages applications from all sectors of the community. A range of scholarships and bursaries are available from the College, including academic, music, sporting, pipe band, and boarding scholarships.

The George Feilding Hight Scholarship, Endeavour Scholarships, and Sinclair Scholarships are also available for students who, in the opinion of the Rector of St Andrew’s College, would be precluded from attending the College because of financial constraints.

STRATEGIC PLANNING FOR THE FUTURE The College is committed to a sustainable future and has invested in both short and long-term planning. The 2019–2023 strategic direction document, Framing Our Future 2019–2023, highlights our six strategic priorities; as High Performance, Opportunity, Partnership and Social Responsibility, Celebration and Community, Well-being, and Place and Space. These strategic priorities will guide the College to the end of 2023.

Our strategic focus drives the College to provide all students with the opportunity to complete their schooling having experienced personal success and excited to take the next steps in their learning pathway, to be confident, self-aware, compassionate, and caring, and to be connected and committed to global responsibility and a better future for all.

Our founding values secure our future by inspiring trust and confidence through living out our values and demonstrating our commitment to continuous improvement. In 2019, two new values were added to our founding values of Truth, Excellence and Faith – Creativity and Inclusivity.

Our vision for every student is to be at the leading edge of high performance education practice, in a community which values caring for others, tradition and creativity, in order to provide young people with the roots and wings to flourish in an ever-changing world.

COMMUNITY SERVICE PROGRAMMES AND STUDENTS HELPING OTHERS The College is committed to creating purposeful local and global partnerships that allow unique opportunities for learning and foster civic engagement and social responsibility. Every year St Andrew’s strives to develop long-term global, national, and local partnerships which provide academic and service opportunities, provide co‑operative learning opportunities, and involve international, deeper relationships with community service and non-profit organisations.

The College has comprehensive programmes in place to support these objectives. Part of the Senior College philosophy is ‘developing social responsibility’. Every student in the Senior College completes a set number of community service hours to receive their Bronze, Silver or Gold Community Service Award.

In 2022, Senior College students performed approximately 5861 hours of community service.

St Andrew’s College students were involved in a range of community and service activities throughout 2022, in support of both the College and the wider community, including the College’s partnership with So They Can, a not-for-profit organisation which helps disadvantaged students, teachers, and families in povertystricken regions in Africa. In 2021, the College’s Board signed off on a Memorandum of Understanding, which will see a percentage of all funds raised at St Andrew’s being directed towards So They Can. This generous financial support goes largely to Mwikantsi School in Tanzania, the partner school of St Andrew’s College, and may also benefit other schools in the region. In 2022 a total of $28,716 was donated to So They Can. The partnership with So They Can is an exciting chapter in St Andrew’s long proud history of philanthropy.

Community Service Leaders ran student theme days raising money to support the Chalky Carr Trust, Q topia, St John’s, Farm Strong, Women’s Refuge, Lifeline and So They Can. Offerings from College chapel services raised $544 to support the Christchurch City Mission. At Christmas, staff, and students from across all year levels donated gifts to the Christchurch City Mission and the Administration and Support staff gifted a further $345 to the City Mission and $379 to So They Can.

Castle Hill Outdoor Centre In 2022 the Castle Hill Outdoor Education Centre was reopened after a brief pause and review.

Pest Control projects continue with wasp and stoat control in conjunction with Craigieburn Wasp Wipeout and the Craigieburn Trapping Alliance.

Community and public lodge leasing is increasing, with the lodge being used as headquarters to host groups such as Lincoln University, recreational cycling and running events, family reunions, etc.

In October the Castle Hill Outdoor Centre organised and hosted the inaugural Cave Stream Operators Symposium, aimed at moderation of commercial and educational activities and sharing best practice.

Castle Hill staff assisted with DoC/Ngāi Tūāhuriri planting days at Kura Tawhiti and staff training koha contributed to the Biota node Planting Project at Te Kohaka Tuhaitara Coastal Park.

Baking for the Ukraine A group of Year 12 students, led by Juliette Noordanus and Mia Walker, encouraged their peers to bring along some baking for a Bake Sale, which raised $927 for the World Central Kitchen, a Non-Profit Organisation which is feeding Ukrainian refugees impacted by the war.

City Mission Can Drive The Year 12 SBA tutor group ran a Can Drive Community Service project and collected 149 cans for the City Mission Food Bank.

Community Service Fundraiser As part of a Community Service fundraiser across all Year 12 tutor groups during Terms 2 and 3, Year 12 tutors and Dean, Donna Jones, worked as a team on cutting, sanding, drilling, and staining beautiful wood, creating propagation stations to sell, and raised $280 for the Cholmondeley Children’s Home.

Eco-Action Community Planting Day St Andrew’s students took part in two Community Planting Action Days as part of the Eco-Action Project. On the first community planting day the students helped to plant 3500 trees in the Christchurch Red Zone, and on the second day, led by Gemma Lewis (Year 12), Jack O’Neil (Year 11) and the Sustainability Council, 3000 native plants were planted in the Chimera Crescent Red Zone.

40 Hour Famine The Community Service team came up with various fundraising events to help raise $9000 for this year’s 40 Hour Famine.

The money raised will provide clean water for underprivileged communities. At the end of Term 2, Year 9 students were sponsored in a ‘walk for water’ where they walked or ran as many laps of the rugby field as possible in 40 minutes. Year 10 students had a rowing challenge, where they rowed as many kilometres as they could in 40 minutes to raise funds.

Head Shave for Charity Fire and Emergency and the Castle Hill Crisis Response team have access and a shared resource agreement regarding generators, satellite phone, firefighting equipment and accommodation in an emergency. LandSAR and EONZ access the lodge and facilities as a training and meeting venue at a significantly reduced rate as recognition of their services to the public and the Outdoor Education sector.

S T AND REW’S CO L L EG E

On the second-to-last day of Term 2, an act of selfless generosity was witnessed by hundreds of students in the Quad. Secondary School Commerce Teacher, Jo Bigford- Fleming, shaved off her hair to raise money for two charities important to her, Paralympics New Zealand, and Breast Cancer New Zealand. It was wonderful to see so many students and members of the St Andrew’s community get behind her, with the result that Jo raised over $13,700.

So They Can Theme Day In Term 1, the Community Service team held a blue-themed day in the Secondary School in support of charity So They Can, with students and staff wearing various shades of blue clothes to co‑ordinate with the charity’s colours. A total of $1669 was raised for Mwikantsi Primary School in Tanzania, the partner school of St Andrew’s through So They Can.

Tonga Appeal St Andrew’s College joined with other Presbyterian schools around the country to raise money for Tonga, in response to January’s devastating volcanic eruption and tsunami. Head Sacristan, Sarah Anthony (Year 13), and the Community Service Leaders, under the creative guidance of Catering Manager, Russell Gray, worked to create 1176 chocolate Easter crosses. In exchange for a donation, prefects and Community Service Leaders delivered a box of chocolate Easter crosses to every tutor group in the College, raising $944 for the appeal. Rutherford House Assistant Manager, Maxine Shepherd, and Relief Assistant House Manager, Sandy Mathieson, organised a donation of goods from the boarding houses towards Tonga Disaster Relief, with donations from the College including 24 mattresses, 60 pillows, and other assorted household items.

Year 9 Community Service Day In mid-November, the Year 9 cohort spent a day at New Brighton beach for their Year 9 Community Service Day. The students were surprised by some of the findings – a tyre, yellow jandals, mascara, old fishing gear, as well as lots of little bits of plastic, glass, and cans, but overall, they were heartened by the low amount of rubbish found.

EYES ON THE WORLD – CREATING GLOBAL CONNECTIONS With New Zealand’s border restrictions being lifted in July 2022, this allowed for our Student Exchange programme to accommodate exchanges from Australia. The focus was to provide students with some normality with oversees travel.

Our first four students departed during the July holidays on their four-week exchange with Presbyterian Ladies College (PLC) in Sydney. We then hosted four girls from PLC in November.

Due to concerns that not all countries have their COVID-19 systems in place to support the health and safety of foreign travellers, it was decided to delay the College’s full exchange programme to countries which require more than one flight until January 2024.

In keeping with the College’s ethos of developing a culture of philanthropy, students are offered the opportunity to take part in service trips, but once again due to the COVID-19 restrictions students were unable to take part in the normal overseas Community Service trips this year.

Over the last 16 years, St Andrew’s College has donated our end-of-life IT equipment to Saint Vincent De Paul Society (SVDP).

This started as just computers, keyboard mice, and screens,

Pub l i c Be nefit Re port

and now every holiday period the ICT Department collects up all manner of computer-related products that are no longer required by the College and donates them to SVDP who recycle, refurbish, and repurpose them. This included several classroom projectors due to the Preparatory School refresh, laptops which are now surplus due to the staff 3-year lease programme, a good number of desktops due to staff unit upgrades, servers, mass storage devices, LCD screens from support staff areas and Preparatory School learning areas, and switch infrastructure, all of which find new life in low‑decile schools and churches around New Zealand and the Pacific. As part of the College’s five-year wireless refresh programme, over 200 wireless access points have been repurposed back to Cyclone Computers to distribute to low-decile schools and community groups.

STUDENTS REACHING THEIR POTENTIAL The College is committed to being known as a place which offers unique and innovative learning opportunities for staff, parents, and students. This includes providing opportunities for students with special educational needs.

The team in the Learning Support Department assist students to reach their academic potential by supporting them with any learning difficulties they face. They work closely with parents, Deans, and subject teachers to identify and assess students with learning difficulties and provide the appropriate support. Students can be referred to outside agencies for specialist educational diagnosis to identify the most appropriate learning support. Features of the support programme include small group support, touch typing and spelling support, organisation and co-ordination of reader-writers and special assessment conditions, and a structured literacy programme in the options timetable for Years 9–10. The College works closely with parents and caregivers to ensure that the student can reach their potential.

A number of teaching staff also provide support in this area to non‑StAC families who may have a need or require help or information, including getting literacy help for their child, high needs funding applications, and psychologists’ assessments. This includes reading the information and reports and explaining what it means to parents and what should happen next. Non-StAC students have been able to join the Morningside programme with staff providing support to parents.

SHARING OF FACILITIES St Andrew’s College has a large campus with excellent sporting and educational facilities. Groups from the wider Canterbury community and throughout the country also make use of our facilities.

In 2022, the sharing of our campus facilities was significantly impacted once again by the COVID-19 pandemic. Subsequently, we only began to welcome domestic guests again from the July holidays and onwards. However, once gatherings were again permitted, local sporting and cultural groups resumed their use of our facilities.

S T AND REW’S CO L L EG E

Our boarding facilities were used by the following groups: Bethlehem College, Marist Water Polo Club, Matamata College, The Model Railway Convention, Mountainview High School, Mountford Park Water Polo, Nelson Hockey, New Zealand Young Farmers, New Zealand Ultimate Frisbee, Orewa College, Rangitoto College, Southland United, Swimming New Zealand, Tauranga College, and Whakatane High School.

We also had other groups hiring out other buildings and amenities on the campus: Church Groups: Agape Gospel Ministries Cultural Groups: Christchurch Civic Music Council, Christchurch Liedertafel Male Voice Choir, Friends of Futuna Charitable Trust, Highland Piping Society of Canterbury, Ms J Bailey, New Zealand Academy of Highland and National Dancing, and New Zealand Association of Artist Doctors.

Sports Groups: Canterbury Basketball Association, Canterbury Regional Basketball Foundation, Canterbury Rugby Football Union, and Halswell Women’s Basketball Other: Academy Conferences, Canterbury Graphics and Teachers Association, Christchurch District Health Board, Create Kiwi Travel, Government House, Hollie Tang Yoga, Ilam Electorate National Party, Orion, and Paparoa Street School.

STAFF SHARING KNOWLEDGE As well as providing the highest education within the College, St Andrew’s staff continue to engage in the wider educational community and regularly share their expertise beyond the school.

A number of teaching staff were markers for NCEA in various subjects and contributed as speakers at conferences.

Staff contribute voluntarily to the wider educational community, demonstrating a willingness to be active and constructive participants in the process and this is detailed on the following page.

The College welcomes trainee teachers and hosts them for a six or seven-week teaching placement, which forms an integral part of their teacher training programme. Beginning the year with the inevitability of disruptions and mask use as a result of COVID-19 meant that the willingness to take on the responsibility for mentoring a teacher trainee was limited. To the credit of our teaching staff, we still hosted seven trainees from training providers across Terms 1, 2, and 3. Staff act as Associate Teachers and support trainees’ teaching practice experience in classrooms throughout the course of the teaching placement. Teachers observe, both informally and formally, trainee teachers, and provide detailed and constructive written feedback throughout

the placement. Trainee teachers are as fully integrated as possible into the College ‘teaching staff’ and are also provided with opportunities to participate in co-curricular involvement (e.g., coaching) where these opportunities arise.

Staff sit on committees such as NZATE and CETE and share their expert knowledge and contribute to the local and national education landscape.

Many staff are volunteers in their local communities, and staff are also involved with coaching sports or cultural groups outside of school hours. Staff give generously to causes championed by the student community. In 2022, in keeping with tradition, staff ended the year by generously donating presents to the City Mission, which were put around the Christmas tree in the Centennial Chapel alongside those donated by students until the week before Christmas, when they were collected by the City Mission for distribution.

SOCIAL AND EMOTIONAL DEVELOPMENT The College’s pastoral care objective is to offer a programme which celebrates the unique talents and personalities of individuals and develops resilience and emotional intelligence in all students. The Pastoral Care programme is based on the College’s guiding values of Truth, Excellence, Faith, Creativity, and Inclusivity. We aim to ensure every student feels comfortable, confident, and connected to their College so that their time here is as rewarding as possible.

Pipe Band of New Zealand in Wellington. Furthermore, solo piping and drumming activities resumed, as well as StAC Attack at the Christchurch Town Hall, Hororata Highland Games, the Christchurch A&P Show and the inaugural Strowan Gathering held in the grounds of St Andrew’s College in early December.

COMMUNICATION WITH OUR LOCAL COMMUNITY

The St Andrew’s College Māori and Pasifika Group is a group formed to learn and practice traditional song and dance of the Māori and Pacific Island cultures. The group is open to anyone and meets every week to learn about the different cultures, which includes song and dance. The group has been involved in several performances throughout the year, including College‑wide assemblies, chapel performances and concerts. In addition to this, group members have the opportunity to sign-up for more competitive performance groups such as the Polyfest group and Kapa Haka.

The College’s website has readily accessible information which informs any member of the public about the activities undertaken at the school. The Annual Report is available online, as is the annual Philanthropy Report, which reports on the philanthropic and volunteering efforts of staff, students, and parents in the St Andrew’s community. The College’s magazine, Regulus, is also available online, which covers the latest news from the College with regards to campus development, alumni news, and student successes. Any matters important to the local community are communicated on the website and via social media and, when relevant, neighbours will receive communications from the College.

The Preparatory School Kapa Haka groups were very successful in 2022. After the disruption caused by COVID-19 the previous year, we were glad to be back assembling, to share waiata, haka, games and poi. The Middle Syndicate students participated in fortnightly Kapa Haka sessions for the first half of the year, with Matua Steve Reid. The classroom teachers and specialist teacher Mrs Mary Leota supported the ākonga learning by revising waiata during class and Te Reo Māori lessons. In Term 3, 60 students opted into the Performance Kapa and worked toward performing in the Tūhono Ngāhau Festival at the Christchurch Town Hall in November. A group of Year 5 students enjoyed learning how to make their own poi and helped to make a set of poi for use by the younger students in the school.

The College is a large employer in Canterbury, employing approximately 350 staff. The College generally supports the local economy by purchasing the majority of its goods and services in the Canterbury region.

A small group of dedicated Year 8 students met weekly to learn poi, waiata, haka and rākau. The girls quickly mastered the very difficult poi dance – Poi E. The boys worked hard to master their leadership of haka, playing of traditional instruments and they joined with the Middle Syndicate to perform at the Tūhono Festival. Towards the end of the year, the Year 8 kapa haka students visited the College to meet the Pasifika group.

As well as their Town Hall experience, the students shared their performances at assemblies, school celebrations and at the Annual College Prizegiving. Kapa haka continues to be a highly valued part of our performing arts and classroom programme.

The confidence and pride exhibited by the students as they prepared and performed in front of a large crowd is worth celebrating. Ka mau te wehi!

EMPLOYMENT AND ECONOMY

GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT STRUCTURE The College’s governance structure is outlined on page 18 of this report and is also detailed on the website. Both management and the Board of Governors have access to extensive professional development opportunities, including the annual Independent Schools New Zealand Conference. The local community can attend the Board Annual General Meeting if they wish. From time to time, community consultation meetings will be held where any member of the public can attend.

Due to COVID-19 restrictions at the start of 2022, the National Pipe Band Championships planned for Auckland unfortunately did not go ahead. Bagpipes at this time were being taught using Digital Chanters and masks. However, as restrictions eased, the regular pipe band activities resumed such as various ANZAC performances by pipe band members in the Canterbury region, as well as students who performed with the National Youth

College Income and Expenses

ST ANDREW’S COLLEGE FINANCIALS

2022

For the year ended 31 December 2022

St Andrew’s College includes our Secondary and Preparatory Schools, our boarding facilities, and our Pre-school.

The 2022 result was a $621k surplus which was driven by the very generous capital development donations towards the building of the new Performing Arts Centre, as well as continued strong student roll numbers.

The funds that are available to help pay for our building programme are shown in the Cash Surplus line in the attached table. The $8.7m of capital expenditure this year was $5.5m more than in 2021, but was less than budgeted for due to the Performing Art Centre project moving more into 2023. The use of our debt facility doubled at year end to $6.3m, and is likely to more than double again by the end of 2023. The College continues to rely on the cash surpluses and donations to repay this borrowing, to fund the building programme, and to thereby keep our campus fit for purpose.

The College is run by the Rector and the Executive team, and it is closely governed by the Board of Governors, while the Foundation is run and governed by the Board of Trustees.

The College is an Incorporated Society with the “business” owned by the Board of Governors on behalf of past, present, and future students, parents, and the St Andrew’s College community (i.e. there are no “owners” as such). The College is a “Not-for-Profit” (and Not-for-Loss either) organisation with the operating costs incurred each year mostly paid for from the fees collected from the families of the current students.

The assets of the College (i.e. largely the land and buildings) have been funded mostly by past and current students / families, as well as from generous donations received from the community. These are maintained to a high standard and are continually being kept “fit for purpose” for, current and future students.

The Foundation is governed by the Board of Trustees who employ Forsyth Barr to manage the investment fund.

Funding for both ‘George Hight’ and ‘Foundation’ scholarships comes from the Foundation’s ‘Scholarship Grants’.

The complete audited Tier 2 report is available on the Charities Services website (CC25213).

Investment Advice

2022 was an extremely difficult year in which global share markets and all fixed interest markets declined by an average of 13.4%. This was the sixth time since 1926 in which all markets declined concurrently. The cause was rooted in the global inflationary pressures resulting in large increases in interest rates, coupled with ongoing disruptions from COVID-19 and the war in Ukraine. Since balance date the world markets have started to adapt to these influences and recover some of the lost value. As at 30 April 2023 the Fund has increased in value by 6.85% on the year end 2022 value.

Investment markets are typically cyclical and while it is impossible to estimate the duration of weak global markets, the Foundation has adopted a long term investment policy and a diversified asset allocation strategy to mitigate risk.
