Champions of CJ
From its origins in 1962 as a high school through to its innovative senior campus model, Cyril Jackson Senior Campus enjoys a rich history and a strong cohort of former students, staff and Board members.
Many have gone on to make great contributions across a number of domains including; government, public service, industry and commerce, the Arts, sport and the professions.
The Champions of CJ concept was created around the idea of celebrating these individuals and their achievements and showcasing to the community and our current students how important an education journey can be in shaping your future. CJ prides itself on helping to create unique pathways for its students to succeed and we hope in telling these stories they will inspire and show that everyone’s story is unique and everyone’s pathway is their own.
We aim to grow and strengthen our relationships with the intention the Champions of CJ continue to enrich our community and inspire our students. We hope our Champions will feel pride in sharing their stories with the current CJ student body and create a supporting community of leaders and inspirational figures.
