Principal’s

Perspective

Our motto – “2024… even better than before!” –was a way to spotlight the significance of positive progression; academically, socially and culturally. It provided a timely opportunity to reflect on the strategic and educational initiatives our School had undertaken in the five years since we launched our Strategic Framework, which was set collaboratively in 2019 to map our School for further success and sustainability. Progression was one of the five Strategic Imperatives outlined in the Framework to focus our decision-making and leverage change for the betterment of our School community – this was particularly pertinent as we navigated the upheaval of the COVID-19 pandemic and charted a course of change by choice. The unwavering support of our community enabled us to commit to a rigorous improvement agenda that prioritised progression, and to holistically and consistently live our promise of Exceptional Education.

Our annual Impact of Giving report is a powerful reminder of the positive difference we can all make to support progression. As an aspirational community, we always want to be better and do better. Continuous improvement is part of our light blue DNA. For 170 years, Geelong Grammar School (GGS) has pioneered transformative experiences and progressive choices in education. Our ultimate aspiration is to make a positive difference for ourselves and for our world. With Exceptional Education as our overarching vision and Enabling Wisdom as our underpinning ethos, the three Strategic Educational Pillars (Adventure Education, Positive Education and Creative Education) and five Strategic Imperatives (Ethicality, Collaboration, Inclusivity, Progression and Substantiation) guide us to leverage change for the betterment of our entire School community; locally, nationally and internationally.

This would not be possible without the continued support of our community. We are so fortunate that our students today are supported in their access to exceptional learning opportunities through the ongoing generosity of our community – a community that believes in the transformational strength of education. The leadership and philanthropy of the Geelong Grammar Foundation and its members enables our learners to feel a genuine sense of belonging and a confidence to open their hearts and minds to the myriad of possibilities available at GGS. It is my privilege to thank each and every one of you for your generous and ongoing support of our School.

We continue to strengthen our learning culture, resulting in improved academic achievement, from our youngest students through to Year 12. Our graduating Class of 2024 achieved outstanding Victorian Certificate of Education (VCE) and International Baccalaureate (IB) results, contributing to a combined median ATAR (Australian Tertiary Admission Rank) score of 84.7, which builds on our 2023 median (82.90) and is above our 10-year average (81.91). We have been buoyed by the strengthening of our VCE results, with the VCE median rising almost 10 points in the past five years. Now, half of our graduating GGS students are ranked in the top 15% of all students in Australia.

Our aspiration is to provide this opportunity for achievement and accomplishment to any courageous, curious and compassionate young person with the drive and determination to make a positive difference, irrespective of their financial situation. In 2024, around one in four of our Senior School students received some form of financial assistance to attend our School. In these challenging times, there

is an even greater need for scholarships and financial support. Scholarship applications are growing every year, increasing by 20% in 2024, as is the level of need among scholarship candidates. Now more than ever, I am grateful for the support of our community to continue providing these life-changing opportunities for so many young people who could not otherwise afford a Geelong Grammar School education. Scholarships are a blessing that would not be possible without the Foundation’s support, led by Vanessa Mahon’s ambition for the next generation of GGS students.

I truly believe that 2024 was “even better than before”. Through championing an innovative, well-rounded and contemporary education – our promise of an Exceptional Education –we continue to progress Geelong Grammar School’s heritage and the vision of our founders.

Thank you once again for your invaluable support of our light blue

From our Chair

Iam delighted to share my first report as Chair of the Geelong Grammar Foundation. I feel an immense sense of pride and responsibility as the eighth leader of the Foundation, working in support of Geelong Grammar School.

2024 provided another year of abounding engagement opportunities for the Foundation to connect with many people throughout our community. The Black Tie Dinner in May at the majestic State Library was a particularly wonderful occasion, a collaboration between the School and the Foundation to celebrate the values of our School and the contributions of our community. Thank you to all who joined us for this very special biennial celebration.

Our Biddlecombe Society programme and event series continued across 2024 with events held in Barwon Heads, Adelaide, Melbourne and Sydney. Each event featured scholars, past and present, sharing their stories of growth and impact, enabled through the generosity of our community. I am most grateful to Tash Wilson (Cl’24), Ollie Lord (M’20), Easton Wood (Cu’07) and Harriet Furphy (Cl’20) for sharing their stories at these events as such inspiring ambassadors for our School.

At these luncheons, I have the privilege of presenting new members with their Biddlecombe Society pins, which feature a stylised plane tree leaf, emblematic of the plane trees

planted along Biddlecombe Avenue. The bespoke leather-bound membership book is also on view with the hand-inscribed names of all members, past and present. These events are a wonderful highlight of our calendar.

Membership of our Biddlecombe Society continued to climb across 2024 with the introduction of 19 new members and a total membership at year end of 284. I would like to express my heartfelt gratitude to the members of the Biddlecombe Society. The Society offers a particularly special and important way for our community to connect with the Foundation and to support the School’s philanthropic mission. The commitment of these donors to the prosperity of our School through a gift in their Will is deeply appreciated and respected.

Equally critical to the future of our School, our 2024 Annual Appeal raised $569,500 dollars, with the majority of these gifts directed towards Scholarships. The Appeal featured an impressive OGG, Sam Parsons (P’14), which helped to activate the generosity of 228 donors. Our Annual Giving programme is a wonderful demonstration of the power of collective impact to support the people and places that make GGS so very exceptional. I extend my sincere thanks to all who continue to give through our annual appeal and giving days. The Foundation is most grateful for gifts of all sizes from our extended community which are so critical to our enduring legacy.

It is with thanks to the generosity of our many donors that we were able to partner with the School again in 2024 to support a remarkable 186 scholarship students. The Foundation contributed $1.74 million towards scholarships across the year, on average delivering funding to cover in excess of 50% of recipient fees.

In 2024, I was delighted to announce the provision of a transformative $10 million gift from the Endowment Fund in support of the Corio Campus Masterplan, which the School has directed towards the new Junior School. The Endowment Fund exists as a critical resource to ensure the future sustainability of our School and support critical and strategic initiatives such as these. The Foundation’s investment in the Corio Campus Masterplan will significantly enhance the educational experience for young people at our School and begin the work to realise the full potential of the Corio site. The gift from the Foundation was made possible through the generosity and legacy of those who have contributed across our history to the creation and growth of our Endowment Fund, including through the prudent investment of gifts by our Allocations and Investments Committee.

I am very pleased to report that notwithstanding the challenging global economic conditions of 2023, our continued funding commitments to the School and this leading gift to progress the Corio Campus Masterplan, the Foundation had a successful year in 2024 and increased the corpus value from $77.7 million to $83.6 million. The Corpus comprised of $20.1 million in the Endowment Trust Non-Scholarship Pool, $12.9 million in the Endowment Trust Scholarship Pool and $50.6 million in the Scholarship Fund.

A strategic shift to focus on our future saw considerable effort directed towards our future philanthropic plans across 2024, through the completion of a campaign planning and feasibility study. We are grateful for the thoughtful contribution of the many community members who participated in our planning study. This work is providing valuable insights to support decision making and strategic planning by governors and leaders

of the School. We are pleased to share key findings from this work within this report.

I am delighted to also share that through the generosity of our donors the net philanthropic revenue for 2024 was close to $1 million dollars to the Scholarship and Endowment Funds. Further gifts through the School’s Building and Library Funds and other sources took the total donations received in 2024 to over $2 million dollars.

I extend my heartfelt thanks to fellow Directors of the Foundation Board for their continued service and commitment of time and the contribution of their professional expertise, which are so valuable to the Foundation’s progress. I am deeply grateful for their genuine commitment to the sound governance of the Foundation.

Finally, my most sincere gratitude goes to our donors. Your commitment and belief in the work of the Foundation and in our School is truly fundamental to our continued flourishing and to the realisation of the many great opportunities that lie ahead.

Thank you.

Foundations for the future Junior School

Avisionary $10 million gift from the Geelong Grammar Foundation’s Endowment Fund will lay strong foundations for the future of the Corio Campus, opening exciting new possibilities for generations to come. The Foundation’s leading gift will play a vital role in the progression of the Corio Campus Masterplan, which has been created collaboratively to provide plans and guiding principles for the future development of the Corio Campus. School Council is directing the Foundation’s gift towards the construction of the new Junior School at Corio, which is an innovative and inspirational project that will transform the campus and is a key component of the overall Masterplan.

“Every gift has a long-lasting impact,” Foundation Chair, Vanessa Mahon, explained. “The Foundation’s gift to the Corio Campus Masterplan is made possible by the foresight of past donors to our Endowment Fund and the prudent management and growth of these gifts over many years, thanks to the expertise of our Allocations and Investment Committee. The legacy of donors who have supported the Endowment Fund continues to inspire and support future generations of GGS students. I extend my heartfelt thanks to these generous and visionary individuals whose contributions have paved the way for this exciting new chapter in our School’s history.”

The expansion of the Corio Campus with a new, purpose-built Junior School was announced in 2022. This significant strategic project was described as a transformational “Timbertop moment”, and an exciting new phase for the School’s Bostock House community. The new Junior School will have an emphasis on nature and inquirybased learning that leverages the Timbertop experience and enlivens Adventure Education for all students at Corio. Located to the

northern aspect of the 230-hectare campus, the Junior School connects to the natural ecosystem of fields, creek, ponds, grasslands and lagoon (which is a Ramsar wetlands site and Parks Victoria wildlife reserve) as well as the exceptional playing fields and facilities that Corio offers.

The Junior School project has faced several obstacles, delayed by complex planning matters (bushfire, native vegetation, water and flood management, and cultural heritage) amidst a highly inflationary environment. The Foundation’s $10 million gift provided a decisive boost to the project, according to Chair of School Council, Paddy Handbury (M’72). “Such an endowment adds tremendous surety to this important project, which will also be co-funded through the sale of our Noble Street site (which has been home to Bostock House since 1997),” Paddy explained. “The new Junior School leads into the progress of the overall Masterplan, enabling projects such as the link road, which will improve traffic flow, parking and drop-off, service Facilities, and support the pedestrian needs for the core of Biddlecombe Avenue.”

After the initial delays, the Junior School project has made tremendous progress across the past 18 months. The building contract was awarded to Geelong-based commercial building company, Lyons Construction, led by managing director Steve Lyons (Fr’87), in August 2024. The project gained approval from the Department of Transport and Planning (DTP), and construction began at the end of Term 3, with the concrete slab/building pad poured in November. The structural steel frame was then erected, and work continues to progress positively – the new Junior School is on track to welcome the Bostock House community to Corio in early 2026, with a staged and supportive transition

“I extend my heartfelt thanks to these generous and visionary individuals whose contributions have paved the way for this exciting new chapter in our School’s history.”

program (Pathways to Corio) to be sequenced across Term 1, followed by the full relocation, which will be completed for the beginning of Term 2.

The Foundation Board had the privilege of visiting the building site in late 2024 and was suitably impressed by the size, scale and location of the new Junior School. “As the Directors toured the site, we were filled with excitement and anticipation for the future,” Vanessa said. “The potential of this site is truly inspiring.”

The new Junior School will be a catalyst project for further progression of the School’s Masterplans at Corio, Timbertop and Toorak Campus – the delivery of the Masterplans equips the School with a comprehensive framework for the future development of its campuses. Whilst the School continues to work through the complexities of these important capital works, it is advancing key strategic projects. For example, at Timbertop,

substantial headway has been made with a significant Fire Services Project. The installation of new infrastructure to support the campus’s Emergency Management Plan underpins the next steps of the Timbertop Masterplan and will enable the progress of plans to extend and enhance the Timbertop Library and Outdoor Education Store.

“The Foundation, in partnership with School Council, remains committed to continuing to build its corpus and to raise additional funds to ensure the successful completion of the many other important projects in the Masterplans,” Vanessa said. “The Masterplans provide a roadmap for future development to help support the progression of the School’s Strategic Framework. We will have many more great things to announce regarding these plans in the future.”

Scholarships Boz of Legacy The

It was with heavy hearts that Manifold House boys lowered the school flag to half-mast on 1 February 2024 .

This symbolic expression of public mourning was especially poignant that day, for it marked the end of the remarkable life of Cecil Edgar Robertson Parsons (M’36). Known universally as ‘Boz’, though no-one quite knew why, he had lived for an astonishing 105 years, having been born in the closing months of World War One. The ripple effects of that conflict touched Boz in 1933 when he was awarded the Bertie Manifold Scholarship to attend Geelong Grammar School. The knowledge that Bertie had been killed in the war deeply affected the young Boz: “I felt it was incumbent on me to do the best I could”. The hundreds of people who gathered on 16 March 2024 in the David Darling Play House and online to celebrate Boz’s life were testament to that resolve.

In the many tributes to Boz, both spoken and written, character descriptions such as gentleman, humble, kind, caring, remarkable, funny, dignified, wise, discrete, sincere and influential were repeated by those who knew him well, or perhaps only in passing. Master of ceremonies on the day, Anson Cameron (M’78), reflected: “Seeing the many familiar faces of people who had come to pay respects to our old mentor, and friend, I was struck by the gravity of my task as MC. Until I realised the man himself would oversee the day, in the way that good people always shape their own afterlives. There was no choice that the day be a wholehearted and joyous tribute, given Boz was who he was.”

Such was the measure of the man that he managed to touch the lives of all those with whom he crossed paths, including several generations of grateful Manifold House students who had the privilege of having Boz as their housemaster. “Being in loco parentis is a big job and you’re a long shot at getting it right. You can’t fully replace the parents – but you can be the person needed. And somehow, he was,” Anson Cameron said. Boz was appointed housemaster of Manifold in 1965, three years after starting teaching at GGS, and remained in the role until 1978, and at the School until his retirement in 1980. That teaching was Boz’s true calling was foreshadowed in his final school report in 1936: “A thoroughly good person with more ability than his results show up to date. Would make a very good schoolmaster. Thoroughly honest and decent and strong in character.”

That character had been shaped since childhood through adverse circumstances buffered by the strength of a loving family. The youngest of six children, Boz was raised by a mother who was widowed when he was just seven years old, on the cusp of the Great Depression. “My indomitable mother rose to the challenge of providing us with an education and upbringing on her own”, he explained. Geelong Grammar, his father’s old school, seemed the right place for Boz and his brother Peter, and the award of a scholarship to both boys enabled them to receive the education that their mother aspired to. Boz was influenced significantly by his headmaster, Sir James Darling, from whom he learnt “the obligation of giving service to your fellow man … there is no doubt that whatever influence I had was derived from what I learnt in the first place as a boy”.

Soon after graduating from the University of Melbourne, Boz was called on to put that obligation to give service into direct action. Following the outbreak of World War Two in

“The gracious humanity of Boz Parsons is a constant reminder of what matters most in education and indeed in life itself.”

September 1939, he enlisted in the Royal Australian Air Force and trained as a pilot. From England, he flew five operations in Halifax bombers with 35 Squadron, and a further 25 operations with 58 Squadron in cumbersome twin-engine Whitleys. It is almost impossible to comprehend the enormity of the sacrifice that Boz was making every time he took to the skies, an action so risky there was a 50 per cent chance he would not return to base. Flying a night bomber “was an extreme form of tension, anxiety and fear,” he explained. “It’s just luck if you don’t get hit.” On 7 November 1941, Boz was part of a disastrous raid that resulted in the loss of 160 airmen and 37 planes – that his luck held yet again on that occasion suggests that fate already had other plans for Boz. He finished his war service over the Pacific, flying B-24 Liberators out of Darwin, for which he earned a Distinguished Flying Cross. Few truly deserve the epithet ‘hero’ –Boz was one.

Between the end of the war and returning to GGS as a staff member in 1962, Boz flew for Connellan Airways in the Northern Territory, farmed at Ardrossan, and met and married the love of his life, Barbara Cane. Their partnership, ultimately lasting 77 years, was the bedrock of Boz’s success and influence as housemaster of Manifold. “We spent over 20 very happy years living on campus and in that time, I made every effort to give back to a school and a community that had given me so much,” Boz said. Those efforts are manifest in the innumerable expressions of gratitude that poured forth at Boz’s memorial service, and in generous donations to the Boz Parsons Scholarship, which was founded in his lifetime and perpetuates his legacy.

Directed towards rural and regional students, the scholarship honours Boz’s own ties to the land as well as the opportunities with which he was provided at GGS. The first recipient, Mimi Bradley (Yr 11 Cl) commenced in 2023. She and her parents share a “great sense of gratitude and pride” that Mimi was awarded the scholarship. “Boz’s legacy of service, character and commitment to community resonates deeply with us, and it’s reassuring to know Mimi is part of a tradition that celebrates those ideals,” said Nick Bradley (M’93). “Watching both of our daughters thrive in their own ways reminds us of what a formative role Geelong Grammar plays in shaping young lives, and we are grateful Mimi will continue to grow in this unique and esteemed environment. Their experiences reflect the same spirit of purpose, resilience, and community-mindedness that Boz Parsons so clearly exemplified throughout his life, and which the scholarship in his name so rightly seeks to encourage.”

Though there was inevitably great sadness at the passing of a person so loved and respected by so many, grief was tempered by admiration for the achievement of living such a long life. That esteem extends to Barbara Parsons, now in her 104th year, whose prerecorded tribute played at her husband’s memorial service left not a dry eye in the house. She often watches the recording of the service, an opportunity to reflect on the many blessings they enjoyed during their lifetimes. “Boz would have loved it. He would probably have been embarrassed but thrilled,” said Barbara. “Everybody spoke so well. Neville Clark was magnificent.” And as Anson Cameron said, “We let Boz do the rest, knowing the day would be replete with that rough bonhomie, free laughter, and essential love, that the man taught us all.”

Pope The Scholarship Family for Indigenous students

Some years ago, Ern and Deidre Pope found themselves in the fortunate position to be able to offer philanthropic support to a worthy cause. They explored many options but when learning of the Yalari Foundation, which supports Indigenous children to receive scholarships to boarding schools, they knew they had found the right answer to their search. Ern and Deidre had observed the benefits of a boarding school education at Geelong Grammar School firsthand, through their children, Adam (FB’88) and Liz (Je’92).

“Their academic education was one aspect, but what we really appreciated was seeing the overall development of them as young people,” explained Ern.

When they found that Yalari supports students to attend Geelong Grammar School, the decision was made. “We thought if Yalari does the screening for students to be at Geelong, that blends the two for us beautifully.”

The result was the Pope Family Scholarship for Indigenous Students, established in 2014. The first scholar was Molly Christianson (Fr’20). Ern and Deidre were delighted when, after a gap year working in a school in England, Molly commenced studies for a Bachelor of Science at Melbourne University – a happy synchronicity given that the Popes met while studying this same course themselves! Molly is currently studying in Adelaide, undertaking

a Bachelor of Medical Radiation Science. Once she graduates, she will qualify as a radiographer and hopes to specialise further as a sonographer. When she is not at university, she works with BreastScreen SA as a radiographer assistant. Molly’s success is the sort of thing that the Popes envisaged when they established the scholarship.

The partnership between Yalari and Geelong Grammar School ensures that Indigenous students are well supported throughout their educational journey. “We have academic support, which is individualised according to their needs, and a Yalari Student Support Officer who works with the students mainly after school and on weekends. On Fridays all the Yalari students gather together and share a meal,” explained First Nations Student Coordinator, Kylie Pretty. “I’m in constant contact with Heads of House and teachers, and students are always welcome to pop into my office. They also meet with Wadawurrung Traditional Owners and members from Wathaurong Co-operative in Geelong and learn from them about their life experiences and their pathways after school.” Yalari staff are kept closely informed about each student’s progress, and families are supported to help their children thrive. “Part of my role is reassurance for families, and I’m often the first one they call if there is a problem. I think for the parents to put their trust in Yalari and in us as a school makes me proud to work here.”

Shanina Stafford (Yr11 Cl), from Wallan on Wurundjeri country, is the second recipient of the Pope Family Scholarship. She applied to Yalari because an older cousin was already at Geelong Grammar School. “She would tell me how good it is and how much she liked it, so my other cousin and I decided it would be a good opportunity. We applied and came in Year 7.” Shanina was proud to receive the Pope Family Scholarship and is grateful for

the opportunities it has presented that would not otherwise have been available to her. “If I didn’t come here then I wouldn’t have been able to do things like Timbertop and all the extracurricular activities. The connections you make with girls in the boarding house are ones you wouldn’t usually make at school.” After school, she hopes to take a gap year teaching English in Japan, then study psychology at university.

“The scholarship is meaningful because it makes me feel like there’s people that care and want to give kids chances and opportunities to do good things.” Shanina Stafford (Yr11 Cl)

The Popes are generously ensuring that other Indigenous students will have the same opportunities as Molly and Shanina. “We’re gradually building the scholarship every year and have as such elected to leave a bequest to Geelong Grammar School in our wills to ensure there will be sufficient to support full scholarships in the future.” They are now members of the Biddlecombe Society. Their children, Adam and Liz, are fully aware of their parents’ wishes and are interested, on an ongoing basis, in how the scholarship is progressing. “It’s nice to think that will continue,” said Ern.

the play on

music

In July 1909, Old Geelong Grammarian, Niel Walter Black (GGS ‘1882), was a passenger aboard the steamship Waratah, which was en route from Australia to London via Durban. Niel had suffered from chronic ill health since boyhood, a trial he bore with fortitude helped by occasional long sea voyages to England and back. “His kindly, sympathetic nature and unmistakable desire to plan how much he could do for others, gave his personality a charm which never failed to impress its influence on all who were brought into close contact with him,” recalled his brother, Steuart (GGS ‘1878). It was therefore an immense tragedy when Niel was lost at sea when the Waratah disappeared without trace, probably in heavy seas, around 27 July. The exact circumstances remain a baffling maritime mystery.

In a disastrous turn of events, Niel had taken passage on board the ill-fated Waratah only because he had delayed his voyage to supervise the installation of an impressive organ in his home, Dalvui, at Mount Noorat. Niel had developed a passion for organ music while on a previous visit to England. ‘Its intrinsic beauty, but also its deeply religious associations, appealed to him with special force’, noted Steuart. Niel designed his new home around the central feature of the organ, commissioned in 1908 from notable English organ builders William Hill & Son. Costing £1,957 (over $330,000 in today’s money) including freight, it was installed in 1909 in a Gothic-inspired organ case designed by Dalvui ’s architect, Henry Kemp.

Following the loss of the Waratah, and of their brother’s life, Steuart and Archibald Black (GGS ‘1876) decided that “no memorial was so truly a memorial to him as this organ, and no place was so suitable in which to place it as his old school, where some of his happiest days had been passed”.

When the Chapel of All Saints was consecrated on 1 November 1915, installed in the choir was the organ, donated by the Black brothers. After the service, the organist of St Paul’s Cathedral in Melbourne, Alfred Floyd, gave a recital. The program commenced with Chopin’s Funeral March in memory of Old Geelong Grammarians fallen in the war – some of them since commemorated in the Chapel’s windows – and of the English nurse Edith Cavell, who had recently been executed in France. Sadly, Archibald Black had died in 1912, and it was therefore only Steuart Black who was present to remember their brother Niel as the final notes of the organ music faded away.

The organ case was enlarged in 1929 when the Chapel was completed, and in 1958 the organ was rebuilt by JW Walker & Sons, London. The refurbished organ was considered to be “one of the very finest instruments in the country”. More recently, in 2007, Australian Pipe Organs installed an electronic control system, which is also now showing its age with many parts requiring replacement. It was therefore with a sense of profound gratitude that we received two donations to the Building Fund, from the Thyne Reid Foundation and an Old Geelong Grammarian from the 1966 cohort, which together have enabled us to meet almost the entire restoration cost of over $90,000.

The Thyne Reid Foundation is a family foundation whose trustees support a broad range of interests. They have connections to Geelong Grammar School and were aware that the organ needed some attention. “We feel it is very important to be maintaining historic buildings and icons of such value as the organ.

We love the story and history attached to it,” said trustee, Iona Levinson (McGregor, Cl’88). “The Chapel is a beautiful, peaceful space where I remember enjoying the surroundings and music. By restoring and maintaining such a lovely instrument, it will ensure future generations of students and those attending chapel, experience the glory of this wonderful instrument.”

The generous gentleman is a music lover who was motivated to donate because of the remarkable story behind the organ, an instrument which made a (loud!) impression on him during his school days. “We used to get subjected to John Brazier’s recitals in the chapel, which were rather dramatic, and organs are a very dramatic instrument. They’re spectacular to look at, they’re spectacular as total surround sound. He would explain things to us, so you start to appreciate what music is. One of my favourite hymns is Jerusalem and I can just picture being in that chapel filled with sound and then: bang! You’re completely swept away by it. I know these things are difficult to maintain. If you delay some of these repairs they get very much more expensive, or the skilled people needed to restore it may suddenly disappear for some reason. I think it’s a fantastic thing if people can play music. I find it very relaxing.”

Coordinator of Keyboard and Accompaniment, John Shawcross, is grateful that restoration is underway. “The restoration of the chapel organ is going to be a tremendous opportunity not only to consolidate but grow the number of students learning and performing on the organ at GGS,” John said. “This generous grant is ensuring a rich and significant part of the school’s history will again play a prominent and important role for the future of music and liturgy at GGS”. It can only be imagined that Niel Black would be delighted.

Progressingfuture our Impact of Giving

The legacy of Geelong Grammar School is built upon a tradition of philanthropic partnership, where the generosity of our community has consistently powered our most ambitious endeavours. As we map the School’s future towards the realisation of our ambitious masterplans for all campuses, we are guided by the The School’s Strategic Framework, providing the direction and impetus for the next era of our development. To ensure our path forward is shaped by a shared vision, a recent Campaign Planning and Feasibility Study was undertaken to understand our community’s priorities.

Engaging with a cross-section of donors, OGGs, parents and staff, the study sought candid feedback on our strategic initiatives as outlined in a draft case for support. The results were not only overwhelmingly positive but also provided a powerful affirmation that the community’s philanthropic spirit is deeply aligned with the principles of our Strategic Framework.

The most profound and resonant message from the study was a strong and widespread commitment to scholarships.

This feedback underscores a collective belief that a Geelong Grammar School education should be accessible to talented and deserving students, regardless of their financial circumstances. Donors expressed a deep desire to foster a diverse and inclusive student body, recognising that this richness of experience strengthens our community as

a whole. This shared ambition to nurture the School’s character through opportunity will be a cornerstone of our future efforts, helping to ensure the GGS experience remains vibrant and dynamic.

Furthermore, the study confirmed enthusiastic support for the key capital projects outlined in the School’s masterplans, which are a direct and tangible expression of our Strategic Framework. The refurbishment of our boarding houses received significant backing, reflecting a shared understanding that modern, supportive living environments are essential to the holistic wellbeing and personal growth of our students. This commitment to enhancing our facilities reaffirms our position as a leader in residential education.

Similarly, the masterplan for our iconic Timbertop campus, which importantly respects the history and simplicity of the place, was met with great excitement. The passionate support for this initiative speaks volumes about the enduring and transformative power of the Timbertop experience. Donors recognise the importance of investing in this unique program to ensure it continues to challenge, inspire, and shape the character of generations of GGS students to come.

The insights gleaned from this Campaign Planning Study are invaluable. They provide a clear and compelling mandate, demonstrating a powerful alignment between our strategic vision and the philanthropic priorities of our community. This collaborative approach ensures that our next campaign will be built upon a foundation of shared purpose and a deep commitment to nurturing the very best in our students and our School. We are profoundly grateful for the thoughtful participation of all those involved and excited to begin this new chapter, confident that with the continued partnership of our community, we can realise our ambitious goals.

“I think it’s very exciting and I commend them all. There’s nothing there that you go, ‘Oh, why are they bothering to do that?’ I’m fully supportive of what they’re seeking to do.”

“It’s very compelling for a parent. It is a lot of money; you’re going to need a lot of donors giving! I loved the piece on scholarships.”

“Definitely put the boarding houses as number one, and Timbertop at number two, because we should invest in what is distinctive.”

The Glamorgan

From the Archives

When the Glamorgan campus of Geelong Grammar School was renamed the Toorak campus in 2008, it marked the end of an era. In 1887, when Annie McComas and her younger sister Isabel decided to open a school, they rented a property in Wallace Avenue, Toorak from “an old Welshman”. He insisted that the property’s name, Glamorgan – named after a county in South Wales – be retained. Thus, the McComas sisters’ school became known as Glamorgan, and continued under this name when Geelong Grammar School purchased the school from Isabel McComas in 1946.

The 120-year association of the name Glamorgan with the Toorak Campus was not relegated to the past, however. In 2008, it was retained in the naming of the Glamorgan Centre, an exciting new specialist education building made possible by funds raised from the $15 million Campaign for GGS. The

campaign funded both the Handbury Centre for Wellbeing at Corio and the Glamorgan Centre, which was the focus of a new-look Toorak Campus. “I believe it took much courage to physically turn the whole structure of the School around in order to find the space for this great new centre,” remarked Lady Southey on opening day. “It meets the requirements of a twenty-first century primary school in spades!”

Donors to the Glamorgan Centre included Charles and Samantha Baillieu, Michael and Silvia Kantor, the McBain family, Prem and Eugene Premraj, Mark and Anne Robertson, Lady Marigold Southey, the Thyne Reid Foundation, Harrison Young and Kirsty Hamilton, the Yulgilba Foundation, and the Geelong Grammar Foundation.

John and Penny McBain’s generous donation was inspired by the very positive experience of their daughter, Rosie (Ga’06), at Glamorgan.

“Rosie went from a girl who was really struggling to make friendships at an all-girls school to within three years being captain of Glamorgan, and eventually school captain. We were so grateful to Glamorgan for what it had done for, first of all, Rosie, and then for our other children, that we decided just to give as much as we could,” John McBain said.

Mark Robertson, who was a parent, School Council member and a member of the Glamorgan Advisory Committee, was heavily involved with the transformation project, as well as a donor. “We just wanted to make the school as good as it could be,” he explained. “The whole campus was rebuilt from top to bottom, starting with the Southey Library and the pool came last. It was revolutionary in terms of the facilities compared to the old school.”

The new building was aligned with the School Council’s decision to consolidate

Middle School at Corio only, focusing on Toorak operating as a primary campus. Now, in another rotation of the education wheel, the present School Council is reintroducing Middle School to the Toorak Campus, commencing with Year 7 in 2027 and then Year 8 in 2028. The name for this new venture, appropriately, is The Glamorgan Initiative. An independent research project undertaken by Roy Morgan, as well as workshops and focus groups conducted with existing staff and families, identified robust data indicating a healthy appetite among families for a Melbourne-based Middle School. The Glamorgan Initiative will include the reorientation and updating of existing facilities – another renewal for the Toorak campus.

Foundation Geelong

The Geelong Grammar Foundation, established in 1976, is dedicated to advancing the School’s mission. Governed by a Board of Directors, the Foundation oversees the allocation and investment of funds received into the Scholarship and Endowment Funds and supports fundraising and donor relations activities led by the Advancement Team.

Appointed by the School Council, the Foundation serves as Trustee for the Geelong Grammar School Scholarship Fund and the Geelong Grammar School Endowment Fund. The Foundation’s resources play a vital role in supporting the strategic priorities of Geelong Grammar School, enabled through the ongoing generosity of our community and the prudent investment of these funds.

With the support of donors and thoughtful stewardship of gifts received, the Foundation’s corpus reached a value of $83.6million by 31 December 2024.

In 2024, the Foundation was led by Chair Vanessa Mahon, supported by nine fellow directors. Committees of the Foundation included the Allocations and Investment Committee, chaired by Michael Stapleton (P’91), and the Biddlecombe Society Committee, chaired by Charlie Sutherland (P’86).

GEELONG GRAMMAR SCHOOL ENDOWMENT FUND

The Endowment Fund was established by trust deed in 1977, building to its current value through generous gifts; transfers, at times, from the School; and investment returns. The Endowment Fund exists to secure the future of Geelong Grammar School through thoughtful investment and management of a corpus of mostly untied funds, and the application of these funds to support initiatives that contribute to the prosperity of the School now and into the future.

GEELONG GRAMMAR SCHOOL SCHOLARSHIP FUND

The Scholarship Fund was established in 2008 as a deductible gift recipient endorsed fund. It exists to provide support for scholarships which ensure the opportunity of an exceptional education at Geelong Grammar School can be made available to all learners.

GEELONG GRAMMAR SCHOOL BUILDING FUND

The Building Fund provides the opportunity for our community to contribute tax deductible gifts to support the physical infrastructure of the School. It is a vital source of funding to ensure students today and into the future have access the best possible living and learning environments.

GEELONG GRAMMAR SCHOOL LIBRARY FUND

Our Libraries are thriving centres of learning and creativity, integral to the way the entire School functions. The Library Fund supports the ongoing development and renewal of these important spaces.

Foundation Spotlight: Michael Stapleton

(P’91 )

Current parent and OGG, Michael Stapleton (P’91), joined the Geelong Grammar Foundation Board as a Director in 2021, also becoming a member of the Allocations and Investments Committee (AIC). In 2024, Michael took up the role of Chair of the AIC, replacing past Chair, Justin Arter, who moved across to a role on School Council.

Michael is a Managing Partner of FSSA Investment Managers, part of the First Sentier Group in Hong Kong, and has more than 25 years of experience in the investments industry. He joined the First Sentier Group in 1998, and has worked for the group in Melbourne, London and now Hong Kong.

Michael provides considerable support for GGS outreach with the local Hong Kong community, and Monique Stapleton was the Friends of Timbertop President.

Michael’s two sons, Sam (Yr12 P) and Ben (Yr10 P), are boarding students at Corio, while his daughter, Jess (Ga’23) is now studying Commerce at the University of Melbourne.

Donors and Biddlecombe Society members, Michael and Monique are deeply committed to the future of GGS.

“My time at GGS was a game changer for me and it’s been an incredible experience for all of our kids. We love the community, so the opportunity to give back in whatever way we can just makes sense to us” Michael said.

FINANCIAL REPORTS

INVESTMENT REPORT

The Allocations and Investments Committee (AIC) is entrusted with the stewardship of the Foundation’s financial assets to ensure alignment with its long-term purpose. To this end, the AIC meet on a regular basis alongside JANA investment advisors to review portfolio performance, assess market conditions and refine the investment strategy. This approach is underpinned by a long-term horizon, reflecting the largely perpetual nature of the Endowment Trust and the Scholarship Fund.

For the year to 31 December 2024, the AIC set differentiated return objectives for its two investment pools: CPI + 5% for the Scholarship Pool since 2018 (the return objective prior to 2018 was CPI + 6%), reflecting a growth-oriented strategy, and CPI + 3% for the Non-Scholarship Pool since April 2021 (the return objective prior to April 2021 was the same as the Scholarship Pool), which maintains a more conservative and liquid profile. Both pools exceeded their respective objectives for 2024, delivering 13.0% and 8.6% against targets of 7.4% and 5.4% respectively. Over a 10-year period, the Scholarship Pool achieved an annualised return of 7.3% whilst the Non-Scholarship Pool returned 6.3% per annum.

The 2024 returns highlight a strong year of return primarily on the back of buoyant equities markets, both domestically and internationally.

For context, the superannuation industry’s SR50 Growth (77-90) Index posted a return of 13.4% for the year, with a 10 year annualised return of 8.2%. The SR50 Balanced (60-76) Index returned 11.1% for the year and 7.0% per annum over the decade and the SR50

Capital Stable (20-24) Index returned 6.4% for the year and 4.3% per annum over the past 10 years.

A core focus of the AIC each meeting is to rigorously evaluate the integrity and validity of the investment objectives and the appropriateness of Strategic Asset Allocation (SAA) boundaries. This ensures the portfolio remains resilient and well-positioned to continue supporting the School’s financial needs through sustainable endowment distributions.

I thank the members of the Allocations and Investments Committee for their contribution of time and expertise to support our continued management and growth of the funds entrusted to the Geelong Grammar Foundation.

Michael Stapleton (P’91) Chair, Allocations and Investments Committee Deputy Chair, Geelong Grammar Foundation

FOUNDATION FINANCIAL SUMMARY

SUMMARY OF FINANCIAL POSITION AS AT 31ST DECEMBER 2024

SUMMARY OF INCOME AND EXPENDITURE, AND MOVEMENT IN FUNDS HELD FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST DECEMBER 2024

1 The introduction of AASB9 - Financial Instruments in 2018 resulted in the recognition of the market movement in a large portion of our portfolio to be recognised directly in profit or loss where previously those movements had been contained within a revaluation reserve on the balance sheet, impacting our result from 2018 onwards.

INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES

The investment objectives are to maximise investment returns over a rolling ten-year investment horizon subject to limiting the risk of a reduction in the real value of the corpus. Performance is measured against a benchmark of CPI + 5% (after fees) for the Scholarship Pool and CPI + 3% (after fees) for the NonScholarship Pool.

NB: The objective of the portfolio for the period 2015-2017 was CPI+6%. These values are incorporated into the 10 year objective and benchmark averages presented.

NON-SCHOLARSHIP POOL

NB: The objective of the portfolio for the period 2015-2017 was CPI+6% and from 2018 to March 2021, the objective was CPI+5%. These values are incorporated into the 5 and 10 year objective and benchmark averages presented.
