About Mentone Girls' Grammar School

Mentone Girls’ Grammar School is one of the finest schools for girls in the Melbourne bayside area, accepting students of all talents and abilities. With a beautiful single campus, we offer the advantages of a seamless K–12 education. Our unique beachfront location has inspired our WAVES priorities — key principles that guide the way we meet the particular learning needs of girls by contributing to their Wellbeing, Achievement, positive Values, Enterprising nature and Success as women in our society.

We empower young women through the life-changing gift of a high-quality, contemporary education. We promote creativity to nurture ideas and develop quality thinking from maths and science to all forms of artistic expression. We encourage boldness, enterprise and intellectual risk-taking in all areas of teaching, learning and life. Mentone girls are encouraged to remain open to new ideas so they can identify and
conquer the challenges of the future. We help students build their self confidence, achieve excellence and make a difference; these are the results that matter most.

Mentone Girls. Remarkable Women.

We believe every child is remarkable in their own way and as such we value each individual. As a result of our quality teaching, small classes, inspired curriculum and personal development programs, Mentone Girls’ Grammar is consistently ranked among the top schools in Melbourne and our students regularly win prizes for sporting, artistic and academic endeavour. We also have an impressive track record of VCE success and university entry.

The holistic education grows from the enquiry-based learning of the International Baccalaureate Primary Years Programme in our Early Learning Centre and Junior School, to the wide choice of subjects offered in our award-winning VCE College. The curriculum includes debating, dance, drama, music, visual arts, Duke of Edinburgh, volunteering, leadership training and a formal careers program, all within a technology rich environment. Strong community alliances provide many opportunities, from water skills with the Mentone Life Saving Club, to quality competition through Girls Sport Victoria. The school welcomes international students to enhance cultural diversity and has active international and language programs to promote the growth of our students as confident, connected, articulate global citizens.
