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.
