Halls Creek Mission was run by the Australian Inland Mission from 1943. Children at the Mission were under the guardianship of the heads of the departments responsible for Aboriginal welfare. In 1955, some people from Moola Bulla Station moved the Mission when the Station closed. Halls Creek Mission closed in 1960.
From 1948 to the mid 1950s the town of Halls Creek gradually moved from its first site near the old gold mine to its present site approximately 13km to the West. The Australian Inland Mission at Halls Creek also made this move, opening its hospital and hostel in the new township in June 1954.
Halls Creek Mission was converted to the government-run Charles Perkins Hostel by 1962.
