Act Fast NL Independent School takes a unique approach to education for students who have struggled in mainstream education systems by integrating motorcycles into its curriculum. This unconventional method engages students in learning essential academic skills such as mathematics and literacy through hands-on activities related to motorcycle maintenance and mechanics. The school's Mototec (Motorcycle Technology) Program is designed to make learning relevant and exciting, ensuring that students are motivated and enthusiastic about their education.
Students at Act Fast NL often come from backgrounds where mainstream education has not met their needs, facing significant challenges, including trauma, ADHD, ASD, and other conditions requiring specialised support. Traditional educational environments can often exacerbate these difficulties, leading to prolonged absences from school—sometimes for up to four years.
Act Fast NL fills this gap by offering a nurturing and supportive environment tailored to each student’s unique needs. The school focuses not only on academic learning but also on developing vital life skills. Students learn practical skills such as cooking, construction, painting and decorating, joinery, plumbing, and tiling, preparing them for adult life and enabling them to contribute meaningfully to society.
Aztec Oils' renewed sponsorship involves continuing to provide MOTOTEC products, essential for the motorcycle-based curriculum at Act Fast NL. These products are crucial for maintaining and repairing motorcycles, allowing students to gain hands-on experience with high-quality materials. This practical application reinforces academic concepts while building confidence and technical proficiency.
“We are incredibly proud to renew our sponsorship of Act Fast NL Independent School,” said Mark Lord, Founder and CEO of Aztec Oils. “Their innovative approach to education is not only inspiring but also essential. By providing MOTOTEC products, we support a program that equips young people with the skills and confidence they need to thrive in the real world.”
The renewed partnership between Aztec Oils and Act Fast NL Independent School is a testament to the power of community and corporate collaboration. Together, they are breaking down barriers and creating opportunities for students who might otherwise be left behind. This sponsorship renewal is more than just a financial contribution; it is an investment in the future of young people and a celebration of the transformative power of education.
