Sport

Recognising the significance of challenging our students, we prioritise their participation in competitive sports at Mentone Girls' Grammar. This fosters not only personal growth, resilience, and self-improvement, but also boosts their confidence and proficiency in various sporting skills.

Mentone Girls' Grammar fosters a supportive environment that has inspired me to pursue the role of Sports Captain.

With the wide range of sporting opportunities available, students are encouraged to participate and strive to achieve their goals, whilst building positive relationships within the school community.

Game On: Junior Sports

Junior School students from Years 3 to 6 are strongly encouraged to participate in some form of competitive sport, with a focus on promoting the spirit of sportsmanship. Students in Years 5 and 6 have the opportunity to participate in Girls' Sport Victoria (GSV) inter-school competitions against other independent schools. Additionally, we offer morning running club and surf lifesaving to further enhance our students' sporting experiences.

Champions in the Making: Senior Sports

Sport is highly valued at Mentone Girls' Grammar with all students across Years 5 - 12 having the opportunity to participate in competitive and non-competitive sports all year round.

Our Senior School students also have the opportunity to compete in GSV competitions, allowing them to showcase their skills, foster teamwork, and represent our school in a range of sports at a high level.

Elevate Your Game

To support our extensive sports program, we provide students with access to Strength & Conditioning, Pilates, and Yoga. Additionally, our extracurricular offerings include Community Netball, which competes every Saturday, as well as Aerobics, Dance and Glee, Recreational Swimming, Learn to Dive, Recreational Tennis, and Self-Defence.

Training and numerous competitions are held in our world-class sporting facilities.
