Join us to March for the Forests 22nd March

Sunday, 22 March, 10am-12pm, Forrest Place Perth

Our awesome supporters often ask - how can we help, while we wait - and wait - and WAIT for the North $toneville decision?

How about waving Save Perth Hills' banners high!

Save Perth Hills is joining our good friends, and supporters, Save the Black Cockatoos, in an Australia-wide Rally for forest protection – including Mundaring Shire’s Jarrah forests.

And right here in $toneville, 60,000 trees, many 200 years old and habitat to Endangered Black Cockatoos, are under threat by $atterley’s bulldozers.

We’re thinking of hiring a bus, depending on numbers. You keen? An optional $10 donation for a return-trip from Mundaring’s Sculpture Park. (depart 8.30am - return 1.00pm).

Email us - admin@saveperthhills.net and let us know!

Bring your family, friends, and your magnificent SPH banners!

And please wear black and bring a black umbrella, to make a giant Black Cockatoo! We'd LOVE to see you all there!

Message from: Save the Black Cockatoos 

Join Save the Black Cockatoos and many other community groups in a Nationwide march to stand up for our forests.

Here in the West, the biggest threat to our precious and unique jarrah forests is bauxite mining. Last year 59,000 people responded to the callout for submissions in relation to Alcoa’s expansion plans which would see a further 11,500 ha of our irreplaceable forests being strip mined. Let our government know that we mean business and we are not okay with these US mining giants making up their own rules.

We also expect better than the slap on the wrist that this US mining giant got for its recently exposed illegal clearing practices. Instead of shutting the operation down, Alcoa have been granted exemptions from Federal nature laws so that they can continue their unlawful clearing of this black cockatoo habitat, and risk contaminating our drinking water.

Join us at 10am, 22 March at Forrest Place in the city to make our voices heard. Wear black and bring a black umbrella so that we can form a giant black cockatoo as part of the action. Facebook event link: bit.ly/March-for-forests-PERTH

Developers vs Black Cockatoos

Developers vs Black Cockatoos... sound familiar?

A cartoon in a national publication has prompted many of you to ask... is this $atterley’s proposed North $toneville?

Well, no, not exactly, but yes - the parallels are striking.

If North $toneville gets approved by WA’s State Tribunal later this year, 60,000 Jarrah and Marri trees, some up to 200 years old, providing crucial habitat for our Endangered Black Cockatoos, will be bulldozed by $atterley and the Anglican Church landowner.

$atterley’s Federally-approved ‘off-set’, for this unprecedented scale of environmental destruction, sits 160kms away from Stoneville, outside Williams - in WA’s wheatbelt.

The cartoon underscores the urgent environmental challenges faced by us in Perth Hills, and sadly, elsewhere too.

As $atterley seeks to re-open its appeal to submit further material to overturn 35-years' relentless Community opposition, we remain super-grateful for your continued support to protect our magnificent Black Cockatoos from extinction – and to Save Perth Hills.

Can you believe it?

It's just over 12-months since Save Perth HiIls' 2025 Rally where more than 2,000 of our awesome Community gathered at Mundaring's Sculpture Park to listen to hopeful-politicians tell us, in 60 seconds, how they planned to save North $toneville's 60,000 trees earmarked for bulldozing by the landowner, WA's Anglican Church.

Of course 'Nigel $atterley's' surprise appearance was a show stopper - keeping the politicians to time with his 60-second chainsaw stop-watch!

Over the next few weeks we'll revisit some notable Rally highlights: the wit, wisdom - and warnings, of our supporters and experts who understand proposed North $toneville's increasing bushfire dangers and irreversible environmental destruction across the unprecedented scale of 530 hectares of Perth Hills' natural landscape.

In coming weeks Save Perth Hills will be preparing our legal response to Satterley's attempt to re-open its appeal. (Please refer to our previous post for details)

In the meantime, stay tuned! We have some exciting things planned for you to get involved and fly the Save Perth Hills flag high - and loud!

Our Campaign account is open 24/7 if you feel you can contribute to our fight... HUGE THANK YOUs to all of you who've recently donated - every single cent is SO greatly appreciated.
