Message from our Patron

I am constantly enriched and inspired by my friendship with Yalari. It is marvellous to see this remarkable organisation continue to flourish, extending its support to our young Indigenous Australians. Yalari provides opportunities that enable secondary students to reach every aspect of their potential. Education is the key to “everything” in life – to choice, to independence, to a satisfying career, to travel, to community contribution, to developing mind body and spirit, to fulfilling one’s hopes and dreams. I congratulate Yalari on its splendid efforts to pave the way for our young ones with the encouragement and practical assistance they need in vitally important and influential years. I want to express my admiration and respect for those who make this possible with generous spirit, hard work and the finest leadership. Yalari families, elders, educators and philanthropists are an example to us all.

Yalari - Educating Indigenous Children Yalari is a not-for-profit organisation that offers quality, secondary education scholarships at Australia’s leading boarding schools for Indigenous children from regional, rural and remote communities. Growing up in the small Queensland town of Murgon 300 kilometres north-west of Brisbane, Yalari’s Founding Director Waverley Stanley attended Murgon State School and with the support of his Grade 7 teacher Rosemary Bishop he gained a scholarship to attend Toowoomba Grammar School. Having personally experienced the opportunity and benefits of a first class education, Waverley and his wife Llew Mullins founded Yalari in 2005 to provide Indigenous children the same life changing opportunities through education. Since its inception, Yalari has been providing Indigenous children with full scholarships for their entire secondary school education. In 2013 there were 185 students from 93 communities attending 32 leading boarding schools around Australia. Yalari believes positive future change begins with the actions we take today with our children, and the Yalari team is determined to see this change happen for our students. Our commitment is supported by a dedicated and passionate team of professionals throughout Australia who work with our students, their families and our partner schools.

MISSION To educate and empower Indigenous children from regional, rural and remote communities to bring about generational change.

VISION To provide trusted, quality educational opportunities for Indigenous children to achieve positive outcomes for themselves and their families and make a valuable contribution as Australians.

VALUE PROPOSITION It takes a whole community to educate a child.

CORE VALUES Respect O

Yalari’s deep commitment to providing positive education and career pathways for young Indigenous Australians and our pastoral care commitments are a major focus and a key factor in the ongoing success of our national scholarship program. 03


Founding Director In 2013, Yalari offered a further 37 scholarships to Indigenous children. In what was a challenging time for us, there have been many highlights too. On Monday August 20 2012, my wife Llew and I stood in the drizzling rain in the early hours of the morning, watching helplessly as the much-loved Yalari headquarters, along with our meagre but still valuable possessions, was consumed by a fire that started in a shop in our small suburban complex. It will be no surprise when I say that this distressing event and its aftermath were some of the most personally challenging things we have ever had to deal with. But in true Yalari style, our loyal and generous army of family, friends, students, financial and corporate supporters, volunteers, staff – and many people we had never met or heard of before – rallied to the cause. In what seemed like no time at all we were up and running again in new premises. There are so many people we want to thank for helping in so many different ways – some big gestures, some small but important ones, but all of them greatly valued. I’d like to acknowledge our partnership schools that continued to support and educate our students without a single moment lost. 04


In what was a challenging time for us, there have been many highlights too. Yalari’s core business is providing boarding school scholarships to Indigenous children from regional, rural and remote communities at our partnership boarding schools around the country. Nothing will shift our focus, and we began 2013 with vigour and determination and offered a further 37 scholarships to Indigenous children.

One of my proudest moments was at a weekend in February when we gathered our 35 Year 10 scholars at Trinity College in Melbourne University and gave them the challenge of collectively raising $20,000 throughout the year, almost $600 each. We asked them to sponsor a fellow Yalari scholar beginning their secondary education in 2014. We called it the ‘Pay It Forward’ scholarship.

We are always looking to the future, to ‘what’s next?’, and are securing real pathways for our students for life beyond the school gates through tertiary education and genuine job opportunities.

They weren’t asked to ‘give back’ for the incredible, but deserving, scholarships they had been given, they were being asked to ‘Pay It Forward’ to someone else.

At Yalari, we expect that the result of a critical mass of highly educated, motivated, socially and culturally aware, and high-achieving young Indigenous people from regional, rural and remote areas will have a profound effect on the future of Australia. Already we have seen the changes in Indigenous families and communities occurring because a member is the first to graduate high school, travel overseas or attend university. Other Indigenous children watch Yalari students as they grow and thrive in their schools, and are inspired to think big. We had 24 Yalari students graduate from Year 12 in 2013. As our number of graduates increase, we watch as more of them go to university to become teachers, lawyers, business people and other valuable welleducated members of Australian society. Just as importantly, these bright young people and their achievements will have a positive impact – either directly or indirectly – on their home communities. We held successful dinners in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane and Adelaide. Our dinners continue to raise our profile and bring new sponsors and supporters to the Yalari family, at the same time serving as a valuable opportunity for our students to showcase their achievements.

The children took to the challenge with enthusiasm and a little bit of competitiveness. I’d like to make special mention of the efforts of Jazleen and Jadalyn De Busch, and Rachyl Cameron from St Margaret’s School in Brisbane who collectively raised $5,800. And yes, the Year 10 group of 2013 raised the funds needed to collectively sponsor one of our Year 8 students on a scholarship in 2014. I am immensely humbled and inspired by Yalari and what it continues to achieve. My sincere thanks go to my fellow board members who tirelessly give up their own time to help us achieve our goals on behalf of our scholarship students, both past and present. The passion and determination of the Yalari board is second to none. To the Yalari staff, volunteers, sponsors, donors, supporters, school staff, alumni, students and families, thank you sincerely for your hard work and perseverance in 2013. Yalari’s success is due to people believing in us and our goals, but more importantly following through with their actions to deliver tangible positive outcomes for our children. The Yalari team ticked some important boxes on the ‘to do’ list in 2013, and so did our students! Waverley Stanley.

During 2012 I was awarded a prestigious Churchill Fellowship to travel to South Africa and Tanzania in 2014 to research leadership and youth development in those countries. I anticipate the research will benefit both Yalari and the wider community of Australia. 05

FROM THE EXECUTIVE CHAIRMAN

GOVERNANCE

I am delighted to have joined the Board of Yalari and to have the chance to work with the Yalari community.

Constitution

The dream to educate and empower Indigenous children from regional, rural and remote communities to bring about generational change is becoming a reality, one student and one family at a time. A generation of Yalari Alumni are emerging from their schooling and entering the workforce, continuing with tertiary education and making a positive contribution for themselves and their families. I have been warmly welcomed by the Yalari community and experienced the goodwill and commitment of our staff, our students, schools and families, and our wide community of supporters. Our staff work tirelessly to achieve the best outcomes for our students, outcomes that are not possible without the dedication and support of our schools and families. In financial terms, the generosity of our donors and sponsors is profound, but they also commit much more, their belief in the Yalari model to deliver outcomes that are so important to Indigenous children and their families. Our volunteers and ‘in kind’ supporters are an amazing group of people, their contributions, commitment and flexibility provide invaluable support. My initial appointment as the Executive Chairman is enabling me to get a really good feel for the work of Yalari. I have been impressed with our progress and become even more aware of how much there is to do. Together with all of our supporters we will work hard to realise the dream of generational change for Indigenous children and their families and to honour the trust and support that so many have placed in our hands. Mary Boydell.

Scholarships Today, all Yalari secondary students are recipients of the Rosemary Bishop Indigenous Education Scholarship, which is funded by support from a large group of individuals, organisations, companies, philanthropic foundations and government departments. Yalari’s founding director Waverley Stanley named the secondary scholarship program in honour of his teacher who had supported him in gaining a scholarship to attend Toowoomba Grammar School in Queensland. Each year Yalari offers up to 50 full boarding school scholarships. The scholarship is reviewed annually and, all being well, is for a student’s entire secondary school education. It covers the financial difference between the school discount, the ABSTUDY designated allowance and the scheduled boarding and tuition fees. Our scholarships are available for Indigenous children from regional, rural and remote communities and towns throughout Australia who are commencing their first year of secondary education. In 2013 Yalari awarded 37 new scholarships to student’s representing 28 communities around the country.

The selection of our scholars is based on: •

Academic achievement and school references

Primary School attendance rates

Participation in leadership, sport and extracuricular activities at school and in their communities

Family support to attend boarding school

Performance in interviews with Yalari staff and school staff

Yalari scholarships are application-based through positive engagement with families, schools and communities. Students are selected to ensure they will receive the support and care necessary to have every opportunity and capability of completing their secondary school education.

Each of our current partner schools across Australia has been chosen with the knowledge that a caring and culturally sensitive environment is provided for our students. Support from the broader school community, including parents, other students, and sporting teams, helps us welcome our students into school life and is always a valued addition to our relationship with the school itself. In 2012 we welcomed two additional partnership schools - The McDonald College and Kambala School, both in Sydney. St Catherine’s School in Melbourne was our newest partnership school commencing in 2013.

PROGRAM DEVELOPMENT

Yalari scholars really enjoy the times when they can get together and catch up. We try to provide as many meaningful get togethers as possible, preferable once a year. Creating opportunities for our scholars to support each other now, and well into their future lives, is vitally important for the wellbeing and success of the scholars individually, and Yalari’s mission to support the children holistically.

O

Orientation Camp

The 7th annual Orientation camp was held in January at The Southport School on the Gold Coast. This camp is compulsory for new students enrolling in 2013 and students who completed their first year in 2012. We also invited a select number of our senior students to participate as junior leaders. New students learnt ideas around creating a smooth transition into boarding for themselves. This included dealing with homesickness, making new friends, the effects of bullying, study time, school expectations and appropriate health and hygiene. Classes for returning students focused on organisation, leadership, cultural heritage and identity. As usual, after five days of getting to know each other, there were many hugs and promises to keep in touch as 86 students caught planes and buses back home for one more week before school started for the year. They were prepared, excited, anxious and ready to start their new adventure. 16

O

Trinity College Melbourne

In February we held the inaugural camp for our Year 10 students, meeting at Trinity College, University of Melbourne. The College arranged all speakers in consultation with Yalari. Waverley introduced “Pay it Forward,” which was the focus of the whole camp: how we contribute. The challenge was to raise $20,000 between the Year 10 cohort to sponsor a Yalari student in 2014. During the weekend the students had a series of workshops ranging from creative communication to Indigenous Hip Hop; all very practical, high energy based sessions where the importance of appreciating what we have was the theme.

Yalari and the University of Queensland Business School held the second annual ‘Horizons’ camp for Year 11 students at the St Lucia and Downtown Campuses in Brisbane during February. The camp gave students a taste of university, including life in the residential colleges. It is also designed to inspire them to pursue their dreams of further study, careers and life beyond boarding school. Many say their plans have changed after the camp – they now want to study after school rather than go straight to work, or they want to aim higher in their field of study. An array of inspiring speakers included Khoa Do, a man who arrived in Australia as a child in a refugee boat and is now an award-winning

filmmaker and the inspiring Karni Liddell, one of Australia’s most successful and well-respected Paralympic swimmers who gave the students an insight into personal challenges and achievements faced by others. A highlight was an intimate private concert with Busby Marou, one of Australia’s most successful duos.

Central Australian Camps

The Central Australian Camps for Year 9 students again proved to be the highlight for many of the Yalari students. Eagerly anticipated, the camps are run separately for girls and boys during the June/July school holidays.The camp is a chance for students to reconnect, share experiences of school, talk about the issues and challenges they face at school, and in boarding, in a safe and relaxed environment, and see some of the culture and country of Central Australia, including some remote communities and the young people who live there. The students met members of the community who shared their stories about their language, traditional customs and ceremonies. They gained a very clear understanding of the opportunity they have been given with their education, and some of the issues that remote people face in their daily lives. The students reflect on what they have seen and learned long after the camp and discuss their experiences in the years afterwards. This year we were fortunate to have the ‘chuck wagon’ along for the ride. This camping trailer,


donated by a generous Yalari benefactor, has saved hours of work at every campsite because all meals can be stored, prepared and cleaned up from one incredibly handy location. There is a long gap between the last Year 9 student camp (Orientation) to this camp, but before long all the students were swapping stories, laughing uproariously and complaining about the long hikes planned for the camp. The next six days were full of action, activities and the creation of lifelong memories. The girls gathered Witchetty Grubs with some Walpiri elders, and visited the remote community of Papunya. The boys played Football against members of the Ntaria Bulldogs in Hermannsburg. They also scaled Mt Sonder, a 20 kilometre round trip. Both groups cooked kangaroo tails in the middle of the desert, collected enough firewood to make some rather impressive campfires, and witnessed a spectacular sunset at Uluru.

Graduation Ceremony

The 24 Year 12 students met in Sydney at the offices of Herbert Smith Freehills for sessions on developing their resumes, learning the ‘dos and don’ts’ of interviews, and outlining three definite career choices. This was followed by mock interviews with a panel of lawyers. The next morning brought the graduation ceremony at Duntroon in Canberra where each of our graduating scholars was presented with a certificate by our Patron, the Governor-General of the Commonwealth of Australia, Her Excellency Ms Quentin Bryce. This was a moving and fitting acknowledgement of the significant achievement of our Year 12 scholars. A weekend of skiing and snowboarding followed the ceremony for the graduates.

O

Cherbourg Walk

It is in honour of the Indigenous people’s strength, courage, and endurance, as well as the historical and cultural significance of the first ‘Walk to Cherbourg’ in 1905, that 70 people - including 35 Yalari scholars, Yalari staff, army reserve volunteers, and staff from our sponsors, the Medibank Community Fund participated in our 2nd Commemorative ‘Walk to Cherbourg’. The 140 kilometre Walk was held over five days during the September school holidays. It was a team walk; therefore the ideals of teamwork, mateship, leadership and strength were fostered before and during the Walk so our students could model those same qualities that, historically, the original Cherbourg people needed to draw upon to create their own sense of community. The cultural and historical significance of the Walk was something for all the students to understand and appreciate, regardless of where they come from in Australia.

Yalari is incredibly proud to welcome another 24 graduates into our Alumni Program at the end of 2013. This brings our total number of graduates to 82. Our Pathways and Alumni Manager works with our Year 12 students on their post-school pathways after graduation either into further study, employment and/or training. Our focus is on our growing number of graduates and their families. We aim to provide the students with pastoral support, advice and guidance in preparation for the years directly following school as they transition into independent life. The post-school program is designed to ensure that Yalari graduates are getting the best possible outcomes from the quality education they have received. In 2013, Yalari graduates were studying, or had been accepted to study at Australian Catholic University, Bond University, Curtin University, Deakin University, Griffith University, James Cook University, Macquarie University, Monash University, Queensland University of Technology, Southern Cross University, Melbourne University, University of New England, University of New South Wales, Newcastle University, University of Queensland, University of South Australia, University of Southern Queensland, Sydney University, University of Technology, Sydney, University of the Sunshine Coast and University of Wollongong.

Paramedic Science, Primary Education, Project Management, Psychology, Science and Veterinary Technology. The percentage of Yalari students who are going on to study at university is growing rapidly with 14 out of the 24 graduates in 2013 having gained places to study at university. The first Yalari students will graduate from university in 2014 with degrees in Education, Psychology and Media. Many other Yalari graduates are undertaking apprenticeships, traineeships and cadetships as well as moving directly into the workforce. In 2013 Yalari students were training in fields as diverse as Business Administration, Nursing, Cabinet Making, Indigenous Dance, Finance and Event Management. Apprenticeships included Carpentry, Electrical, Diesel Mechanic and Automotive Technician. There are also a number of Alumni training with state and federal police forces. In 2013 we were pleased to commence our Tertiary Mentoring Program for students in Queensland. This program matches students who are undertaking university study, traineeships, diplomas or apprenticeships with an appropriate mentor relevant to their chosen field. It is intended that this program will be rolled out in other states in 2014.

Many of Yalari’s tertiary students are residing in university colleges through partnerships Yalari has formed with Kings’ College, The Women’s College and Emmanuel College at the University of Queensland, St Andrew’s College at the University of Sydney, St Anne’s College at the University of South Australia and Trinity College at the University of Melbourne. Yalari is developing partnerships with other colleges to cater for the increase in demand in coming years.

The Yalari Alumni are a growing band of confident, well-educated and ambitious young people who are proud of their culture and their achievements. They are grateful for the opportunities they have received through Yalari and its supporters, their respective schools and the many individuals who have assisted them on their journey thus far. In 2013 the Yalari Alumni increasingly contributed to the organisation by assisted Yalari in running all of its major events including camps and fundraising dinners, they sat on the fundraising organising committees in each state, and they represented the organisation at speaking engagements and events throughout the year.

Yalari students are currently undertaking degrees in Accounting, Aquaculture, Arts, Commerce, Communications, Education, Environmental Studies, Exercise and Sports Science, Human Movement, Indigenous Art, Indigenous Education, Indigenous Health, International Business, International Relations, Journalism, Law, Media, Nursing,

The Yalari Pathways and Alumni program was supported with the assistance of a number of key Yalari partners. Herbert Smith Freehills, Lend Lease, ITNewcom Foundation, Bryan Foundation, English Family Foundation, Accenture and generous individual donors were instrumental in providing opportunities and support to the Yalari graduates. 19


Sponsors, Donors and Partners Yalari’s scholarships and programs help Indigenous children from regional, rural and remote communities to reach their full potential, and to fulfil their own dreams. Yalari’s belief is that our students, their families and the Indigenous communities in which they live are making a difference and that our partner boarding schools, our donors, sponsors, government departments, philanthropic organisations and the Yalari team are making a difference for Indigenous children. We are all making a difference now and we will continue to make a difference in the future, having a positive impact for generations to come. Yalari acknowledges that while this list includes those who have funded the education of our students, sponsored our events or provided pro bono services in 2013, we are thankful to all who have contributed any financial support, and, importantly, those who devote their time and resources in any way.

On Thursday October 17, 580 guests attended our annual dinner in Brisbane in the Plaza Ballroom at the Brisbane Convention and Exhibition Centre which was generously sponsored by Arrow Energy. It was another very special night with Yalari students taking on all of the key roles, each one of them stepping up to the task. Chelsea Oliver (Year 10, The Glennie School, Toowoomba) and Michael Noah (Year 12, Townsville Grammar School) were the MC’s, Tyus Arndt (Anglican Church Grammar School, Brisbane) sang a very beautiful rendition of ‘Let Her Go’ and Nathan Sagigi’s (Year 9, St Augustine’s College, Cairns) speech was very impressive. Our dedicated and hardworking committee of volunteers were staffed from Herbert Smith

O

Adelaide 2013

Memorial Hall at St Peter’s College was once again the venue for 270 guests at the Adelaide dinner which was held on a beautiful night on Saturday November 9. Our students once again stepped up to the challenge of running the dinner. Tye Bedford (Year 9, St Peter’s College) performed the Acknowledgement of Country and Calvin Hunter (Year 8, St Peter’s College) was the youngest of our students ever to make a speech at a dinner. His impressive heartfelt, emotional speech touched the audience.Year 11 student Abby Richards (Great Southern Grammar School, Albany), sang two songs and Angeline Bedford, grandmother of seven Yalari students expressed what a difference the opportunity of a first class education has made to her family. Transfield Services and Broadspectrum were the sponsors for the night and we were very pleased to have many guests from Santos, our major partner in South Australia. We are very grateful for the work of the 14 committee members and our 21 volunteers on the night including students from Scotch College ,Adelaide and St Peter’s College, Adelaide.


Volunteers Currently Yalari has 440 volunteers registered nationally and we continue to work to ensure that Yalari benefits as much as possible from the involvement of volunteers and that our volunteers benefit from being part of Yalari. To keep volunteers engaged we send them a Volunteer Newsletter quarterly and this lets them know what other volunteers have been doing and also any volunteer roles that are available. We partner with Griffith University as part of their Community Internship program and so regularly enlist assistance of students to work on specific projects during their fifty hours of volunteering time. Volunteers assist us in the office, with tutoring and mentoring students, on dinner committees, at our dinners and other volunteers help with transporting students. We are constantly looking for new ways to involve volunteers and we endeavour to give them interesting projects to work on to further enrich and support our program and provide a relevant and engaging experience for them. We have recently partnered with Deloittes on their newly established Microvolunteering platform. There are a number of dentists and orthodontists throughout Australia who offer pro bono dental treatment for our students. Volunteers assist with the planning and facilitation of the Commemorative Walk, our camps and workshops that enrich our program. Students from Langports Language School assist us with the mail out of our newsletters each quarter. Corporate Social Responsibility has provided us with opportunities to engage and establish partnerships which provide us with a bank of knowledge and many willing volunteers. Partnerships have been forged with Herbert Smith Freehills, Medibank Community Fund, Accenture and Arrow Energy. Volunteers currently donate approximately 13,500 hours to Yalari a year. We can never underestimate their value to our organisation. So many of our volunteers are now our friends and we are eternally grateful for their generosity.
