Parkerville is located in the hills surrounded by natural bush 30 kilometres east of Perth. The first school at Parkerville was established in January 1899 with the current school being built in 1962. A refurbishment in 1999 resulted in a new school entrance, Administration building, Library, Covered Assembly area and Art room including an Outdoor Visual Arts area. The school has a friendly, family atmosphere with the current population around 290 from K to 7. With increased developments in the area, it is conceivable this number will increase in the next few years. Classroom computers are networked and classes have a SmartBoard and a minimum of four computers in each room. The school also has a technology room with fifteen computers. The school community believes that every child has the right to achieve to their potential and the staff at Parkerville are professional, friendly and committed to achieving the best possible outcomes for all students. Through the efforts of the P&C, the school has improved its grounds, playground equipment and resources across many learning areas. The School Council has nine members and plays an integral role in developing many policies.
