Parkerville Grove School:
Where Healing Opens
the Door to Education
For young people who have experienced trauma, learning cannot begin until healing does. Traditional schools often aren’t built to support this journey, leaving too many children disconnected and at risk. Parkerville Grove School will change that.
Children who have experienced trauma are half as likely to meet literacy and numeracy benchmarks. Many have lived through abuse, neglect, or constant upheaval, making it difficult to feel safe, trust adults, or be ready to learn. Without the right support, these young people can lose their chance at education and the future they deserve.
Parkerville Grove School will be a safe, healing environment where young people in Years 7-12 can reconnect with learning and begin to shape their futures. At its heart is a therapeutic learning model that brings together educators, trauma specialists, social workers, and mental health professionals. By addressing wellbeing first, students are supported to heal so learning can follow.
The vision for Parkerville Grove School is clear, but critical work remains. We need funds to ensure every child receives wraparound support - therapeutic services, daily essentials, and transport. This removes barriers to education and helps young people attend regularly, feel safe, and stay engaged.
Your support can help us open the doors to young people who need this school most. To donate or learn more about Parkerville Grove School, visit www.parkervilleeducation.org.au or contact Mariam Mukaty, Director Philanthropy at mariam.mukaty@parkerville.org.au or 0472 865 352.
Parkerville Gala 2026: There’s No Place Like Home
This year’s Parkerville Gala is raising vital funds to support the development of Parkerville Grove School, its services, and students.
The 2026 Parkerville Gala: There’s No Place Like Home, presented by Hancock Prospecting and Hancock Iron Ore, is your golden ticket to a night of live entertainment, seriously good prizes worth clicking your heels for, and unexpected delights that’ll have everyone talking. It’s the kind of night that feels good and does good. Inspired by The Wizard of Oz, you’ll follow the yellow brick road into a world where generosity meets purpose, and where every step taken brings us closer to a Western Australia where all children feel safe, supported, and free to learn, grow, and thrive.
Funds raised through the Gala will help create a place where young people are understood, supported and given every opportunity to catch up, keep up and feel proud of how far they’ve come.
Home isn’t always a place. More often, it’s a feeling. Your presence, and your contribution at the Parkerville Gala, helps create that feeling for young people who need it most. Get your tickets now, with special early-bird pricing available for a limited time - Parkerville Gala 2026
