Welcome to Mentone Grammar
At Mentone Grammar we believe in developing happy, healthy and high achieving young people. Our goal is to develop successful learners, confident and creative individuals and active, informed citizens.
Living in a rapidly changing world, our teaching aims to be learner-centred, flexible and a balance between disciplinary knowledge and skills, alongside the development of important dispositions and habits of mind. By focusing on the development of well-rounded young people, students enter the world fully prepared to embrace the challenges that lay before them and are equipped with the tools to thrive in whatever they pursue.
We believe strongly that learning is enhanced when a student’s emotional intelligence is maximised. Students with high emotional intelligence are able to recognise and name emotions in themselves and others, they are able to link emotion to cause and consequence and are able to harness their emotion to enhance thinking and deepen understanding.
Our differentiated teaching and learning programs utilise the latest research to ensure students develop this capability. The teachers at Mentone Grammar are outstanding. They recognise the importance of building strong relationships with their students and their families.
We provide contemporary, supportive and engaging learning environments and allow opportunities for collaborative and individual learning. There is a culture of high expectation, mutual respect, trust and responsibility. Our teachers are learners too, constantly seeking ways to improve and refine their practices.
WE ALL LOOK FORWARD TO SHARING THIS JOURNEY WITH YOU.
BEST WISHES
