Chairperson’s report St Margaret’s College has continued our long tradition of academic, sporting and cultural achievements this year; something of which we can all be proud. Our strong reputation, combined with small class sizes, modern campus facilities and commitment to continual improvement have been maintained. It is my pleasure to highlight just some of the successes we have had in 2022. We were proactive in developing our Foundation Diploma, stepping away from Level 1 NCEA to create a fit for purpose programme that has academic rigour and enables our girls to advance seamlessly into their preferred academic pathways of NCEA or International Baccalaureate. We are well ahead of other schools in this area as was recognised by an invitation to present at the upcoming Asia Pacific Summit on Girls’ Education. Our Junior School has developed a strong reputation in leading structured literacy, with educators from around the country visiting to see our teaching team in action. We have introduced a Middle School careers pilot to ignite and inspire ideas and opportunities for future pathways and our Aspiring Leaders programme continues to challenge girls across these important developmental years. We are proud that over 90% of our girls participated in sports at SMC, producing numerous national finalists and international representatives. To be on the podium for hockey, netball, rowing, tennis, as well debating, Ethics Olympiad, Future Problem Solving and Sheilah Winn Shakespeare is an extraordinary feat. Our growth areas of cricket, contemporary music and dance, football, rugby and volleyball continue to develop the array of talent we have here at SMC. It has certainly been a busy year and, as always, we owe a great deal of gratitude to many people. We have staff who consistently go above and beyond their normal duties and many volunteers, including our Parents and Friends Association, Old Girls’ Association and Foundation, who give freely of their time and efforts to support SMC. The Board would like to thank Diana Patchett and the wider team for their work to provide holistic education and a wealth of co-curricular opportunities, to grow well-rounded individuals and nurture each girl’s unique strengths. I would like to personally acknowledge and recognise the efforts of my fellow Board members for their skill and dedication over the past year, with special mention and thanks to Vicki Green who is retiring from the
Board after seven years. Vicki’s contribution to the Board has been immense and her broad expertise has seen her serve on our Compliance, Finance and Property sub-committees during her tenure. This year we were fortunate to welcome two new Board members, Melanie Muirson and Tim Rookes, who bring a wealth of knowledge and expertise to the Board table. The Board shares the community desire to maintain and improve the academic, cultural, sporting and personal opportunities available to the girls at SMC, understanding and responding to their development over the course of their time with us while enhancing the warm big-sister-little-sister relationships. We are also proud of the College initiatives undertaken in support of our Sustainability Charter, including plans to maintain and improve our social and community connections, this year’s propagation of 5,000 native plants and trees, as well as greater efficiencies being realised in power and waste on campus. The SMC community has generously supported the work of UNICEF (Solomon Islands) and Dignity NZ through our own Educating Girls Globally charity, as well as contributions to the Christchurch City Mission, Red Cross and Cancer Society. Our strategy is focused on providing continuous improvement to our campus. Our goal is to provide a leading, future fit for purpose environment for our girls and staff. Our brand new playground is underway, as well as the renovation of our Kilburn boarding house and upgrade of our swimming pool. We are intent on reigniting our successful exchanges and special trips as we move out of Covid constraints. Following our national success in Future Problem Solving, we will send a team to the international competition in Massachusetts, USA. We look forward to our reciprocal rowing exchange with St Margaret’s Anglican Girls School (Brisbane), as well as an inaugural cultural, language and service exchange with Lycée Samual Raapoto in Tahiti. The Trust Board’s governance role is to ensure SMC is financially sustainable whilst providing the very best possible education for our girls now and into the future. Our focus is always to respect our heritage, while ensuring our present and future girls are the core reason for existence and that SMC aspires to be the most sought after girls’ school, for what our girls become and what they contribute to the world. Di Humphries, Chairperson

Executive Principal’s report Throughout our 112-year history, the pioneering spirit of St Margaret’s College appears ever-present. Across the generations, there has always been a sense of optimism, seeing opportunities in place of obstacles, looking beyond our own circumstances to serve others less fortunate than ourselves, celebrating endeavour equally with achievement and aiming to be the best we can be – both in the world and for the world. The seamless connection of our four schools provides a genuine sisterhood, one that aspires to excellence and celebrates effort, yet balances serious pursuits with a glorious sense of fun. The girls are proud of their school and of each other, and this provides a powerful environment for them to be courageous, to discover
their gifts and to step confidently out into the world. SMC today aims to empower young women to live and lead, but we do so guided by the aspirations of those who have gone before us, excited by the possibilities in front of those present, and inspired to continue the legacy for those yet to come. My thanks to the Trust Board, the Old Girls’ Association, the SMC Foundation, the Parents and Friends’ Association and College staff for their energy and commitment to providing the very best for our girls and families. Diana Patchett, Executive Principal

International students
SMC put in place a number of measures to protect the wellbeing of our international students during the pandemic and the resulting restrictions on travel. Having retained many of our international students through Covid-19, we have seen a rebound in interest from families internationally who are drawn to a New Zealand education in a girls only, independent setting.

International Baccalaureate
SMC is the only girls’ school in New Zealand’s South Island to offer the dual academic pathway of International Baccalaureate or National Certificate of Educational Achievement. In offering the IB, SMC students have the opportunity to follow a philosophy of education that supports their development physically, intellectually, emotionally and ethically. The programme provides them with excellent subject knowledge while promoting their growth as empathetic, connected, global citizens.

Performing Arts Highlights In 2022 we adapted to the restrictions placed upon us by Covid-19, and created an intimate portrayal of Little Women for our Senior Show – giving our students the opportunity to sink their teeth into lengthy dialogue and accents, and push their acting abilities. Our Junior School performed a fun and festive show “A Kiwi Christmas Carol”. Largely student-led, our participation in national competition Sheilah Winn Shakespeare Festival has seen some brilliant work come from our drama students, with frequent honours and awards given to students. After competing in a regional final, winning groups travel to Wellington to compete on the Michael Fowler Centre stage with schools from all over New Zealand. In 2022 we had two Senior students accepted into a prestigious acting workshop following the festival, with one selected to further represent New Zealand at the Globe in London.
For Showquest, Year 8 students presented a 10 minute stage show of their design and choosing, combining acting, dance, vocals, live music and more. This is a fantastic opportunity for our girls to experience live stage theater and performance, and gain valuable experience and grow in confidence. Three Rock bands represented SMC at the 2022 Bandquest, with one group from Year 8/9 placing 1st in the Regional heats and 3rd in the National finals.
Strategic intent We have worked hard not just to create an inclusive and encouraging arts environment within the classroom, but to establish a wide variety of co curricular opportunities for students to broaden and grow their creativity. Our rock bands grow year on year, as students find joy in performing in a contemporary setting, with the ability to write their own music and make their own mark.
12
Sport Highlights In 2022, we saw the return of sport as we know it at SMC, once we had plowed our way through the challenges of Covid-19 during Term 1 for our summer codes. Our tier one codes achieved some record highs, realising all of our strategic sporting priorities for these codes with the following results: Hockey – Canterbury title, 2nd NZ Netball – Canterbury and South Island titles, 2nd NZ Rowing – 5 podium finishes at Maadi Tennis – South Island champion for the 7th consecutive year. We can also proudly boast 11 New Zealand and 54 Regional or South Island representatives Strategically we had a focus on both cricket and equestrian and were able to realise an increased number of girls participating in both these sports. We proudly opened our new cricket nets for the start of the 2022/23 season and were thrilled to have our equestrian
programme up and running with dedicated high level experienced coaches guiding our riders. Sport participation for Year 1-13 students has been consistently high over the last 10 years with a record high of 92% reached in 2022. The same proportion of students in Year 9-13 participated in over 30 different sports, with many electing to be active all year round. With the support of our dedicated Sport Office and Old Girls network, our girls have plenty to aspire to and it is no accident that we continue to be recognised both regionally and nationally for our efforts. Our top participation codes in terms of numbers are netball closely followed by basketball and volleyball. Having a high number of regional, south island and national representatives across the codes shows that our dedicated development programmes are serving a purpose in providing opportunities for our athletes to not only play the sport they love, to build resilience, sportsmanship and commitment but also the opportunity to excel in the pathways available to them.

Statement of Accounting Policies For the year ended 31 December 2022 a) Reporting Entity The reporting entity is that entity known as St Margaret’s College Trust Board. St Margaret’s College Trust Board governs St Margaret’s College (the ‘College’), which is an independent girls’ school operating in Christchurch, New Zealand. The Board of Trustees (the Board) is of the view that the College is a public benefit entity for financial reporting purposes in accordance with the Financial Reporting Act 2013.
b) Basis of Preparation Reporting Period The financial reports have been prepared for the period 1 January 2022 to 31 December 2022 and in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2005 and the Financial Reporting Act 2013.
Basis of Preparation The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, and the accounting policies have been consistently applied throughout the period.
Financial Reporting Standards Applied The College is required to prepare financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting practice. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting practices in New Zealand, applying Public Benefit Entity Accounting Standards Reduced Disclosure Regime (‘PBE IPSAS RDR’) as appropriate to public benefit entities that qualify for Tier 2 reporting. The College is considered a Public Benefit Not for Profit Entity as it meets the criteria specified as ‘having a primary objective to provide goods and/or services for community or social benefit and where any equity has been provided with a view to supporting that primary objective rather than for financial return to equity holders’.
PBE Accounting Standards Reduced Disclosure Regime The College qualifies for Tier 2 Not-for-Profit PBE IPSAS on that basis that it does not have public accountability and is not defined as large as it falls below the expenditure threshold of $30 million per year. All
relevant reduced disclosure concessions have been taken.
Measurement Base The financial statements are prepared on the historical cost basis unless otherwise noted in a specific accounting policy.
Presentation Currency These financial statements are presented in New Zealand dollars, rounded to the nearest dollar.
Changes in Accounting Policies and Disclosures St Margaret’s College has adopted IPSAS 41 from 1 January 2022 The policies and disclosures for Financial Instruments, Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable have been updated.
Specific Accounting Policies The accounting policies used in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below.
Critical Accounting Estimates and Assumptions In preparing these financial statements the College has made judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates. Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised and in any future periods affected.
Useful lives of property, plant and equipment The College reviews the estimated useful lives of property, plant and equipment at the end of each reporting date. The School believes that the estimated useful lives of the property, plant and equipment as disclosed in the Significant Accounting Policies are appropriate to the nature of the property, plant and equipment at reporting date. Property Plant and Equipment are stated in Note (i).
24
Recognition of Acceptance Fees The College reviews the Acceptance fees received at the end of each reporting period to determine whether these are refundable under the enrolment terms and conditions prevailing at the time of payment. The College believes all Acceptance fees received and refundable are appropriately recognised as a liability.
Expected Credit Losses on Accounts Receivable An allowance for credit losses (doubtful debts) is established where there is objective evidence the College will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms of the debt.
c) Revenue Recognition Revenue is recognised to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefit will flow to the College and revenue can be reliably measured. Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable. The following specific recognition criteria must be met before revenue is recognised:
ii. Revenue from non-exchange transactions Non-exchange transactions are those where the College receives an inflow of resources but provides no (or nominal) direct consideration in return.
Government Grants The College receives operational funding from the Ministry of Education. Operational grants are recorded as non-exchange revenue when the College has the rights to the funding, which is in the year that the funding is received. In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Ministry confirmed that it will not seek repayment of operational funding (including pre-school funding). Therefore, the College has recognised all 2022 funding as revenue during the financial year.
Grants
i. Revenue from exchange transactions
Other grants are recorded as revenue when the College has the rights to the funding, unless there are unfulfilled conditions attached to the grant, in which case the amount relating to the unfulfilled conditions is recognised as a liability and released to revenue as the conditions are fulfilled.
Tuition and Boarding Fees
Donations
Domestic and International student tuition and boarding fees are recognised in the academic year to which they relate. Amounts received in advance for services to be provided in future periods are recognised as a liability until such time as the service is provided. Student fees are considered exchange transactions as the College provides consideration in return for this inflow of resources. Scholarships and remissions given by the College are offset against student fees revenue.
Donations, gifts and bequests are recorded as non-exchange revenue when their receipt is formally acknowledged by the College.
Enrolment and Acceptance Fees Student enrolment and acceptance fees are recognised at the time of payment or when they are no longer refundable, as per the enrolment terms and conditions prevailing at the time of payment.
Sale of Goods Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised when the product is sold to the customer.
Interest Revenue Interest Revenue on cash, cash equivalents and investments is recorded as revenue in the period it is earned.
d) Operating Lease Payments Payments made under operating leases are recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Revenue and Expense on a straight line basis over the term of the lease.
e) Finance Lease Payments Finance lease payments are apportioned between the finance charge and the reduction of the outstanding liability. The finance charge is allocated to each period during the lease term on an effective interest basis.
f) Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, bank balances, deposits held at call with banks, and other short term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts.
25
The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents represent fair value.
g) Accounts Receivable Accounts Receivable represents items that the College has issued invoices for but has not received payment for at year end. They are initially recorded at fair value and subsequently recorded at the amount the College realistically expects to receive. The impairment of Accounts Receivable has been assessed and an allowance for credit losses (doubtful debts) is established where there is the probability of default, reflecting both the historical and forecast credit conditions, that the College will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms of the debt. This impairment loss is the difference between the carrying amount of the receivable and the present value of the amounts expected to be collected and has been included under indirect expenses in the Statement of Comprehensive Revenue and Expense, if not otherwise shown separately. Receivables are written off when there is no reasonable expectation of recovery.
h) Inventories Inventories are consumable items held for sale and comprise of stationery, school uniforms and cafeteria supplies. They are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost is determined on a first in, first out basis. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of activities less the estimated costs necessary to make the sale. Thus the fair value of the inventory is determined based on the cost at time of purchase. The write down from cost to net realisable value is recorded as an expense in the Statement of Comprehensive Revenue and Expense i n the period of the write down.
i) Property, Plant and Equipment Land and buildings are stated at cost or valuation less accumulated depreciation. Property, plant and equipment are recorded at cost or, in the case of donated assets, fair value at the date of receipt, less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. Cost or fair value includes those costs that relate directly to bringing the asset to the location where it will be used and making sure it is in the appropriate condition for its intended use. Subsequent expenditure is capitalised only when it is probable that the future
economic benefits associated with the expenditure will flow to the College. Ongoing repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred. Property, plant and equipment acquired with individual values under $500 are not capitalised, they are recognised as an expense in the Statement of Comprehensive Revenue and Expenses. Gains and losses on disposals (i.e. sold or given away) are determined by comparing the proceeds received with the carrying amounts (i.e. the book value). The gain or loss arising from the disposal of an item of property, plant and equipment is recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Revenue and Expense.
Finance Leases A finance lease transfers to the lessee substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of an asset, whether or not title is eventually transferred. At the start of the lease term, finance leases are recognised as assets and liabilities in the statement of financial position at the lower of the fair value of the leased asset or the present value of the minimum lease payments. The finance charge is charged to the surplus or deficit over the lease period so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability. The amount recognised as an asset is depreciated over its useful life. If there is no reasonable certainty whether the school will obtain ownership at the end of the lease term, the asset is fully depreciated over the shorter of the lease term and its useful life.
Depreciation Property, plant and equipment are depreciated over their estimated useful lives on a straight line basis. Depreciation of all assets is reported in the Statement of Comprehensive Revenue and Expense. The estimated useful lives of the assets are: Buildings
5-100 years
Land Improvements
10-100 years
Plant, furniture and fitting
1.5-10 years
Motor Vehicles
4-10 years
Leased assets held under a Finance Lease Term of lease
j) Intangible Assets Software Costs Computer software acquired by the College is capitalised on the basis of the costs incurred to acquire and bring to use the specific software. Costs associated with
26
subsequent maintenance or licensing of software are recognised as an expense in the Statement of Comprehensive Revenue and Expense when incurred.
m) Employee Entitlements
The carrying value of software is amortised on a straight line basis over its useful life. The useful life of software is estimated as three to seven years. The amortisation charge for each period and any impairment loss is recorded in the Statement of Comprehensive Revenue and Expense.
Employee benefits that are due to be settled within 12 months after the end of the period in which the employee renders the related service are measured based on accrued entitlements at current rates of pay. These include salaries and wages accrued up to balance date, annual leave earned to but not yet taken at balance date.
k) Impairment of Property, Plant, and Equipment and Intangible Assets The College does not hold any cash generating assets. Assets are considered cash generating where their primary objective is to generate a commercial return.
Non-cash Generating Assets Property, plant, and equipment and intangible assets held at cost that have a finite useful life are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the asset’s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable service amount. The recoverable service amount is the higher of an asset’s fair value less costs to sell and value in use. Value in use is determined using an approach based on either a depreciated replacement cost approach, restoration cost approach, or a service units approach. The most appropriate approach used to measure value in use depends on the nature of the impairment and availability of information. If an asset’s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable service amount, the asset is regarded as impaired and the carrying amount is written down to the recoverable amount. The total impairment loss is recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Revenue and Expense.
Short-term Employee Entitlements
n) Income Received in Advance Income received in advance primarily relates to fees received where there are unfulfilled obligations for the College to provide services in the future. The income is recorded as revenue as the obligations are fulfilled and the income is therefore earned. The College holds sufficient funds to enable the refund of unearned income should the College be unable to provide the services to which they relate.
o) Funds Held in Trust Funds are held in trust where they have been received by the College for a specified purpose. These are recorded as a liability. The College holds sufficient funds to enable the funds to be used for their intended purpose at any time.
p) Financial Instruments The College’s financial assets comprise cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, and specific funds investments. All of these financial assets are initially recognised at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost , using the effective interest method.
The reversal of an impairment loss is recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Revenue and Expense.
The College’s financial liabilities comprise accounts payable, financial lease liability and borrowings. All of these financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method. Interest expense and any gain or loss on derecognition are recognised in the surplus or deficit.
l) Accounts Payable
q) Borrowings
Accounts Payable represents liabilities for goods and services provided to the College prior to the end of the financial year which are unpaid. Accounts Payable are recorded at the amortised cost required to settle those liabilities. The amounts are unsecured and are usually paid within 30 days of recognition.
Borrowings are recognised at the amount borrowed. Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless there is an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the balance date.
27
r) Income Tax
u) Equity
The College is a registered charity under the Charities Act 2005. Due to its charitable status, the College is exempt from income tax.
Equity is measured as the difference between total assets and total liabilities It is disaggregated and classified into Accumulated Funds or Specific Reserves created by the College, where either a restriction has been established through the terms and conditions of a specific donation (including bequests) or to record income received for a specific management purpose (e.g. Building Fund). Funds are released either on use in accordance with the term and conditions of the donation or for management reserves, at the discretion of the Board.
s) Goods and Services Tax (GST) The financial statements have been prepared on a GST exclusive basis, with the exception of accounts receivable and accounts payable which are stated as GST inclusive.
t) Services received in-kind From time to time the College receives services in-kind, including the time of volunteers. The College has elected not to recognise services received in kind in the Statement of Comprehensive Revenue and Expense.

Notes to the Financial Statements continued 15 Contingent Liabilities In 2018, a Royal Commission of Inquiry into Abuse in Care was established. The Government set up this Inquiry in response to public calls for a broad-based inquiry into abuse and neglect, both in State care and in the care of faith-based institutions. St Margaret’s College Trust Board is participating in this inquiry. The known claim seeking financial compensation from St Margaret’s College in relation to historic abuse has been concluded at the time of issue of these financial statements, and the Board is not aware of any further claims. (2021: Nil financial claim quantified and disclosed.) 16 Related Party Transactions St Margaret’s College Foundation is a related party on account of common Trustees. During the year St Margaret’s College made payments on behalf of the St Margaret’s College Foundation which were in turn reimbursed for the value of these payments. In turn the Foundation distributes funds funds to St Margarets College. At balance date, receivables include $54,070 owed by the Foundation. (2021: $41,100). The St Margaret’s College Foundation made donations to St Margaret’s College of $92,821 during the year, which included $67,224 from the SMC Rowing Club fundraising and other distributions of $25,597 (2021: $101,215). In addition the Foundation funded 2 scholarships valued at $26,331 (2021: $25,432) 2022

17 Financial Instruments The College’s financial assets comprise cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable (Trade and other receivables), Investments and specific funds investments. All these financial assets in the Statement of Financial Position are measured at amortised cost. The College’s financial liabilities comprise accounts payable, accruals, finance leases, financial liabilities and borrowings. All of these financial liabilities shown in the Statement of Financial Position are measured at amortised cost. 18 COVID 19 Impact During 2022 the country was under the Covid Protection Framework, using 3 traffic light settings of Red, Orange and Green. During the year, the school remained open, with mandatory vaccination of staff and the requirements to wear face masks at Red, and Orange Traffic light settings. From 3 February to 25 March during Red setting, indoor gatherings were limited to 100 people. This was increased to 200 poeple from 25 March 2022. New Zealand moved to Orange from 13 April 2022 until the end of the Covid Protection Framework on 12 September 2022. During the year the school campus was open with all students and facilities. However some operating areas were impacted during Red settings due to the restriction of numbers and staff illness due to Covid. This resulted in a reduction in Facilities Hire, Cafeteria Sales and Maggies Cafe income and an increase in the cost of temporary and relief staff across all areas. The impact was offset by cost savings primarily from school operations and claims under the Covid 19 Leave Support Scheme. There has therefore been no material impact on the assets or liabilities of the College including Trade and Other receivables. For some fee payers impacted by Covid 19, the College entered into payment plans to defer payment of fees. The Bursary Covid 19 Fund established in 2020 by St Margaret’s College Foundation, with donations from the school community (including staff) and other donors was used to provide Covid Assistance Grants to support individual families in payment of fees where they have been materially impacted by Covid 19. This is part of the distributions made during 2021 (refer Note 16). There has been no material impact on the overall school roll numbers for 2022 or 2021. The effect on our operations is reflected in these financial statements based on the information available to the date these financial statements are approved. While the situation remains fluid (due to continued COVID 19 outbreaks, evolving government policy and the evolving business and customer reactions thereto) as at the 33
date these financial statements are authorised for issue, the School considered that the financial effects of COVID-19 on the financial statements cannot be reasonably estimated for future financial periods. The Board of Trustees are satisfied that the School will have access to sufficient resources to enable them to pay their debts as they fall due for a period of 12 months from the date these financial statements are authorised for issue. 19 Events After Balance Date No other matter or circumstance has occurred subsequent to year end that has significantly affected, or may significantly affect, the operations of the School, the results of those operations or the state of affairs of the School in subsequent financial years.
