Design and Technology Teacher Clay Woolcock said there was a high level of enthusiasm among students who got a taste of the program this year.
“We had students banging on our doors before school and at recess and lunchtimes wanting to come in to work on the bikes,” he said.
“We’ve developed a program that engages all students because it combines their interests in racing and motorsports with a range of practical skills.”
