Matt Grice, Director of Sport
Dear Parents and Guardians,
Last Saturday marked the 3rd Invitational of the season at ES Marks, with many of our athletes achieving personal bests across both track and field events. It was fantastic to see the squad’s commitment and energy on display, and the results are a credit to the hard work being put in at training. This weekend will see the final Invitational before the all-important CAS Athletics Championships next Thursday. We wish all students representing Cranbrook the very best as they prepare for this major event.
This Saturday sees the Athletic Squad take part in the 4th Invitational at ES Marks.
A big congratulations to our snow sports team, who competed in the Australian Interschools competition last week. We achieved fantastic results across the board, with all students performing to the best of their abilities. A heartfelt thank you to our incredible snow sports team, as well as to the students, staff, and parents, for another remarkable season.
House Basketball has returned for the 2025 season, bringing an incredible buzz across campus. The opening rounds have already delivered some fiercely contested games, with the VCH packed at lunchtimes by enthusiastic supporters cheering on their houses. The atmosphere has been outstanding, showcasing the pride and spirit that each house brings to the competition. We wish all houses the very best for the competition ahead, and I would like to thank our Basketball staff for their efforts in running this long-standing and much-loved event.
A reminder for the CAS Athletics Championships on Thursday 18 September. All boys in Years 7, 9 and 11 will be in attendance and will depart School at the end of lunch.
