Mentone Girls' Grammar Aquatic Centre

MEET THE TEAM | Bryony

At Mentone Girls’ Grammar Aquatic Centre, our instructors are committed to helping swimmers build confidence, develop skills and feel comfortable in the water.

This week, meet Bryony, who has been part of our team for the past four years.

“One of my favourite parts of being a swimming instructor is building strong connections with each child. I love creating a supportive and encouraging environment where swimmers can feel confident, have fun and work towards achieving their goals.”

Next time you’re at the pool, be sure to say hello to Bryony.

Regular swimming is an important part of developing confidence, technique and water skills at every stage.

At the Mentone Girls’ Grammar Aquatic Centre, consistent practice helps swimmers build muscle memory, strengthen technique and continue progressing towards their goals.

Taking a break from swimming, particularly over winter, can interrupt this progress. Every session provides an opportunity to maintain skills, build confidence and develop further.

As Australia's swimmers inspire the nation with their performances in the pool, it's a timely reminder that swimming is more than a sport—it's an essential life skill.

With recent Life Saving Victoria statistics showing drowning incidents remain above the 10-year average, there has never been a better time to build confidence in the water.

Mentone Girls' Grammar Aquatic Centre is open to the public and welcomes girls and boys of all abilities. Our qualified instructors offer a range of programs, including:
• Learn to Swim
• Learn to Dive
• Water Polo
• Squad Swimming
• Holiday Programs

The Aquatic Centre is open Monday to Friday after school and Saturday mornings.

A reminder that Learn to Swim classes resume on Monday 13 July 2026. We look forward to welcoming everyone back for another term of building confidence, developing skills and having fun in the water.
