Canberra High School athletes will compete at the 2025 Chemist Warehouse Australian Athletics All Schools Championships at Lakeside Stadium in Melbourne from December 4 to 7.

Canberra High School Athlete Development Program

Canberra High School runs an Athlete Development Program for Years 7 to 10 students that covers athletics along with basketball, netball, football and volleyball. Sessions take place at Aranda Oval and CHS facilities. The program forms part of the school's structured approach to developing student athletes ahead of major events.

School Sport ACT Pathways

School Sport ACT serves as the peak body for school sport delivery across Canberra. It manages regional, state and national representative pathways that allow ACT students to progress toward events such as the All Schools Championships. This structure connects school programs directly to national competition opportunities.

Other Canberra High School Sport Requirements

Canberra Grammar School requires all students in Years 3 to 10 to represent the school in at least one core sport each year. Core offerings include athletics, cricket, rugby and netball. Canberra College provides more than 20 sports for its students, including athletics, AFL, swimming and rugby union, with some options restricted to specific terms.

Event Evidence and Timing

The December 4 to 7 dates at Lakeside Stadium mark the confirmed window for the 2025 championships. Canberra High School athletes are listed among the participants, giving local programs a direct national platform during that period.

Programs like the Athlete Development Program at Canberra High School and the mandatory representation rules at Canberra Grammar School prepare students for these larger competitions. School Sport ACT coordinates the selection and support processes that feed into the championships.

Students and schools can monitor School Sport ACT updates for selection details and preparation guidance ahead of the Melbourne event.
