Guests and supporters of .cyc
Parkerville Children and Youth Care generously raised more than $400,000 at the 2026 Parkerville Gala event at Fraser’s in Kings Park – with all funds benefiting a new specialist school currently being built in the Perth Hills.
Made possible by the decade-long support of presenting partners Hancock Prospecting, Hancock Iron Ore and the extraordinary personal commitment of Mrs Gina Rinehart AO – whose kindness and belief in Parkerville’s mission stretches back even further – the 2026 Gala united the public with corporate and philanthropic leaders to help establish the new school.
The beautifully themed There’s No Place Like Home (Wizard of Oz) Gala brought together senior leaders from the corporate, philanthropic and community sectors, alongside long-standing supporters of Parkerville’s work and some who joined the cause for the first time. Their collective generosity will directly support young people whose lives have been shaped by trauma.
Parkerville Grove School is a specialist secondary school delivering a healing-first therapeutic education model for young people aged 12 to 18 whose trauma has made mainstream education impossible. The school is intentionally designed to build healing and safety first, creating foundations young people need to re-engage with learning in a sustainable way.
Guests at the event were quick to open their hearts, with funds raised being earmarked for the school’s allied health services, therapeutic services, and purpose-built environments designed to help young people feel safe, regulated, and ready to learn.
❤️🧡💛💚💙💜🩷
