CHAIR’S REPORT From the Chair of the SCEGGS Trust

As the Chair of the SCEGGS Trust Limited and on behalf of the Board of Directors, I am pleased to present the

2019 Annual Report. The Trust is the fundraising arm of the School and its efforts would not be possible without

the continued support of our donors and our community. Together we share an ongoing commitment to the

education of girls at SCEGGS Darlinghurst. This report outlines these efforts and our fundraising achievements

for 2019.

On behalf of the Trust, I thank the entire community for their work over the past year. The SCEGGS Trust is

fortunate to have so many members of the community committed to our fundraising efforts. From the Parents’

and Friends’ Association and the Old Girls’ Union, to the many dedicated past, current and future parents, friends

of SCEGGS and Old Girls, every contribution is truly valued and ensures that SCEGGS can continue to provide the

best possible education for current and future girls.

During 2019 we continued to pursue the goals outlined in the School’s strategic plan, Our Path Ahead.

Specifically, these aims include raising funds for both the expansion of the School’s means‐tested Scholarship

Program and supporting the development of Stage 1 of the School’s new Building Masterplan, the

redevelopment of Wilkinson House.

I’m delighted to share with you that the Trust raised over $900K from all fundraising activities during 2019. Of

the total raised, just over $310K was directed to the SCEGGS Scholarship Fund and over $580K to the Trust’s

Building Fund. Donations to both Funds, no matter the size, had an enormous impact in 2019, and the Trust is

profoundly grateful for every donation received from every donor.

In addition to the above very generous donations, the Trust received forward pledges of $1.6 million over the

next five years in support of our two priority programs previously mentioned.

2019 donations to the Scholarship Fund enabled our means‐tested Scholarship Program to provide opportunities

to those girls who would not otherwise be able to access a SCEGGS education. SCEGGS Darlinghurst is an

inclusive, diverse and accepting community, and the expansion of the Program underlines the strong SCEGGS

tradition of including girls and families from all backgrounds. Ultimately, it is the Trust’s long‐term goal to see

10% of students assisted in some way by a full or partial scholarship. In particular, the Trust is focused on raising

funds to ensure the School expands its indigenous scholarship program into the Primary School. The generosity

of our community has enabled $10 million to be raised over the past 13 years in support of our Scholarship

Program. However, to reach our long‐term goal, a further $10 million is needed. In 2020 and beyond, the growth

of the Scholarship Fund will continue to be an ongoing focus of the Trust.

Since its inception in 2017, the Diana Bowman Scholarship has been supporting a means‐tested scholarship.

Named in honour of a previous Head of School, over $39K weas received in 2019 towards this scholarship, the

overwhelming majority of which was donated by our Old Girls. We thank all who have contributed towards this

and other scholarships for their continued support.

Donations to the Building Fund helped the School to continue to fund the Development Application of the

School’s new and exciting Building Masterplan. The Masterplan outlines a 30‐year staged approach, with the

objective to develop highly functional, flexible and inspiring spaces that are conducive to the School’s needs.

The first stage in this Masterplan is to undertake a comprehensive redevelopment of Wilkinson House. With

the Development Application already submitted, the Trust is now working with the entire SCEGGS community

to raise the $10 million needed for the benefit of current and future SCEGGS girls.

On behalf of the Trust, I thank every donor who has supported the Trust’s fundraising initiatives in 2019. A list

of every donor who has elected to be recognised is contained within this report. I extend my deep gratitude to

all donors listed and those who have elected to give with anonymity.

I am also extremely grateful for the many Barham Fellows, being those members of the SCEGGS family who have

generously indicated that they have included a gift to the School in their will. Your actions now will benefit

generations of SCEGGS girls.

While the vast majority of the monies raised go directly to each Fund, the full amounts contributed are reflected

in the SCEGGS Darlinghurst Limited’s accounts, and not in the Trusts accounts, as set out in this Financial Report.

In 2019, the Trust continued to raise funds and awareness of our current and long‐term goals through various

campaigns and events. In March, the Trust Board, together with the SCEGGS Board and the School’s leadership

team, warmly welcomed over eighty new parents into the SCEGGS community at the New Parent Dinner. In

November, Old Girls were invited to a special matinee performance of the Saving SCEGGS production, supported

by the Trust.

I also wish to thank the Parents’ and Friends’ Association for their donation from the Fabulous Festival on Forbes

event. With its green focus, this biannual event hosted food, vintage clothing, flowers and book stalls. We wish

to thank all those who gave of their time, skills, and financial support. Through your collective efforts the Trust

received $125K that has been allocated towards the redevelopment of Wilkinson House.

Finally, I would like to thank the dedicated members of the Trust Board for their ongoing hard work and

commitment to SCEGGS. It was wonderful to welcome three new Board Members: Stuart Comino, Natalie

Meyenn, and Stephen Turner. I also acknowledge retiring Trust Board Member Michael Jamieson. He has been

an invaluable member of the Trust Board and his wisdom and counsel over his ten years of service will be greatly

missed.

I look forward to continuing the Trust’s work in 2020, as the School celebrates its 125th anniversary. I sincerely

hope that you will support the work of the Trust for the ultimate benefit of generations of SCEGGS girls.

I encourage any member of the SCEGGS community to contact me if they would like more information on the

Trust's work or to share any thoughts and comments on the Trust’s activities.

Chair, The SCEGGS Trust

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENT For the year ended 31 December 2019

1. Significant accounting policies

The SCEGGS Trust Limited (the “Trust”) is a company limited by guarantee and is a not for profit entity. The parent entity is SCEGGS Darlinghurst Limited.The financial report was authorised for issue by the directors on 8 April 2020.

(a) Statement of complianceThe financial report is a general purpose financial report which has been prepared in accordance with AustralianAccounting Standards (“AASBs”) – Reduced Disclosure Requirements (“AASB RDRs”) adopted by the AustralianAccounting Standards Board (AASB) and the Australian Charities and Not-for-profits Commission Act 2012 .

(b) Basis of preparationThe financial report is presented in Australian dollars. The financial report is prepared on the historical cost basis.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with AASBs requires management to make judgements,estimates and assumptions that affect the application of policies and reported amounts of assets and liabilities, incomeand expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates arerecognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period or in the period of therevision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.

(c) Cash and cash equivalentsCash and cash equivalents comprise cash balances and call deposits.

(d) Revenue – policy from 1 December 2019 to 31 December 2019

(i) DonationsDonations are recognised as revenue when the Trust gains control of the contribution or the right to receive thecontribution.

(ii) Interest incomeInterest income is recognised as it accrues in the statement of comprehensive income, using the effective interestmethod.

(e) Revenue - policy for periods beginning 1 January 2019

(i) AASB 15 Revenue from contracts with customersThis standard replaces AASB 11 Construction Contracts and AASB 118 Revenue.

The standard contains a single model that applies to contracts with customers and two approaches to recognising revenue: at a point in time or over time. The model features a contract-based five-step analysis of transactions to determine whether, how much and when revenue is recognised. SCEGGS Trust Limited has initially applied AASB 15, including any consequential amendment to other standards, from 1 January 2019. The adoption of this standard did not have a significant impact on the entity’s financial statements.

(ii) Revenue recognition policy for revenue streams which are either not enforceable or do not havesufficiently specific performance obligations

AASB 1058 Income for Not-for-Profit EntitiesAASB 1058 introduce major changes to the income recognition by public and private sector not-for-profit (NFP)entities. Rather than accounting for all contribution transactions under AASB 1004 Contributions, NFPs will nowneed to determine whether a transaction is a genuine donation (accounted for under AASB 1058) or a contract witha customer (accounted for under AASB 15).Where transactions do not meet the requirements of AASB 15 as noted above the NFP will need to assess if thetransactions should be accounted for under AASB 1058. AASB 1058 establishes principles for Not-for-Profitentities, which will more closely reflect the economic reality of transactions that are not contracts with customers.



NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENT - CONTINUED For the year ended 31 December 2019

(f) Income tax No income tax is provided for as the Trust has been endorsed by the Australian Taxation Office as an income tax- exempt charity entity.
