                  NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                  For the financial year ended 31 December 2024


                  These  notes  form  an  integral  part  of  and  should  be  read  in  conjunction  with  the
                  accompanying financial statements.


                  1.     General information

                         The  National  Youth  Achievement  Award  Association  ("the  Association")  is
                         registered under the Societies Act since 12 September 1991. The address of the
                         Association's registered office is 151 Lorong Chuan #06-01B Lobby A New Tech
                         Park, Singapore 556741.

                         The Association is registered as a charity under the Charities Act since 12 October
                         1991 and granted Institution of a Public Character ("IPC") status since 1 April 1992.
                         The Association is exempted from income tax.

                         The  Association  is  principally  engaged  in  activities  aimed  at  motivating  young
                         people to maximise their potential and build on their physical and mental abilities
                         through a non-competitive award programme.


                  2.     Material accounting policy information

                  2.1    Basis of preparation

                         These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Financial
                         Reporting Standards in Singapore (“FRSs”) under the historical cost convention,
                         except as disclosed in the accounting policies below.

                         The  preparation  of  these  financial  statements  in  conformity  with  FRSs  requires
                         management to exercise its judgement in the process of applying the Association's
                         accounting policies. It also requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates
                         and assumptions. There are no areas involving a higher degree of judgement or
                         complexity,  or  areas  where  estimates  and  assumptions  are  significant  to  the
                         financial statements.

                         Interpretations and amendments to published standards effective in 2024

                         On  1  January  2024,  the  Association  adopted  the  new  or  amended  FRS  and
                         Interpretations  to  FRS  ("INT  FRS")  that  are  mandatory  for  application  for  the
                         financial year. Changes to the Association's accounting policies have been made
                         as required, in accordance with the relevant transitional provisions in the respective
                         FRS and INT FRS.

                         The adoption of the above new or amended FRS and INT FRS did not result in any
                         substantial change to the  Association's accounting policies and had no material
                         effect on the amounts reported for the current or prior financial years.
