Cranbourne Schools Boost Athletics With Track and Field Sessions
Students from three local colleges take part in track and field sessions at Casey Fields this week amid ongoing interschool schedules.
How we reported this
Three secondary colleges in Cranbourne continue interschool athletics through the Casey South Division of School Sport Victoria.
The programs run alongside other term sports at Cranbourne West Secondary College, Cranbourne Secondary College and Cranbourne East Secondary College. These events occur at the Casey Fields Athletics Centre on Berwick-Cranbourne Road in Cranbourne East, where students aged 12 and over train and compete in track and field disciplines.
School carnivals and facility use
Cranbourne Secondary College holds three annual carnivals, including a whole-school athletics event that sends students to run, jump and throw at Casey Fields. Cranbourne Primary School also trains Year 3 to 6 students for its own carnival at the same track, selecting participants for track and field events. Lighthouse Christian College includes athletics in its broader sports program that covers basketball, netball and swimming.
Cranbourne Secondary College faces a $9 million facility upgrade scheduled through Q3 2026, which has already produced some disruptions to sports programs during Term 2 2026. The shared athletics venue at Casey Fields remains the main site for these school activities even as works proceed.
Weekly venue activity
Casey Cardinia Athletics operates from the same Casey Fields Athletics Centre, offering track and field sessions for athletes aged 12 and over. Local primary and secondary students use the track for events listed in school calendars, though no individual race times or team scores from this week appear in public records.
