Speak Out Challenge Regional Final

We are incredibly proud to share photos from the #JackPetchey #SpeakOut Challenge Regional Final, where King John student CJ Carter represented the school among the top 18 students selected to compete in the regional finals.

CJ delivered a powerful and inspiring speech centered around chasing dreams and persevering through challenges. His message reflected our Pride Values throughout, particularly positivity and resilience, as he spoke honestly about setbacks he had faced and the determination needed to overcome them. Through thoughtful metaphor and heartfelt delivery, CJ encouraged both the audience and judges to reflect on their own ambitions and to act upon them despite barriers or self-doubt.

His performance was not only moving, but also inspirational for many students who may struggle with confidence or public speaking, proving that courage and perseverance can help individuals truly shine. As Dory famously says in Finding Nemo, “Just keep swimming.”
