To me, this looks like a grass that ahs been flooded, rather than a water plant. But I could be wrong.

Hi Jane, not that I photographed. There may have been some further around the pond/dam; stalks, not flowers.

Yes, definitely Vallisneria australis.
John, please could you check the location of this sighting ? is it meant to be the little wetland next to Calvary ? (ie on other side of Haydon Drive)

Hi Jane, yep, on the east of Haydon. I have moved the marker. This sort of error happens often enough; don't know what the issue is.
