Lexis Noosa Kicks A Goal – (to be modest… several goals)!

Lexis Noosa and Lexis Sunshine Coast came head to head in a game of futsal at Noosa Leisure Centre yesterday afternoon.

It was shirts off and game on for our Lexis Noosa team as the whistle blew for the first half of the game. Lexis Sunshine Coast kicked the first goal after 5 minutes and cheers were roaring from the massive Sunshine Coast supporters who travelled an hour in a bus to watch their team. It was not long after that Noosa started to show their superb futsul skills and kicked goal after goal. Half time saw Noosa on 7 and Sunshine Coast on 2. There was still hope for Sunshine Coast to catch up as the Saudi boys finally turned up to play! 

The last half included some in/unintentional trips, slams, bumps, hot heads and amazing saves by both goal keepers. Sunshine Coast won with the show of supporters but Noosa won the game! The final score was Noosa 10 and Sunshine Coast 3. The afterparty took place overlooking the gorgeous Noosa River at Noosa Yacht Club with some jugs of beer provided courtesy of Lexis English. Congratulations to our Lexis Noosa Futsul Team… we are so proud of you!

Love Is In The Air At Lexis English…

The students celebrated Valentines Day with a party and postcards!

Students and staff expressed their love to each other by writing postcards and placing them in the love box for delivery to each classroom. After the postcards were handed out it was time for some food, drink and lots of kisses! Love was in the air and kisses were seen everywhere!

CPE Brain Teaser for the week

 

So…have you ever been flabbergasted?  That was last weeks word.

It means to be overcome with astonishment, astounded, thunderstruck, struck dumb.

This week we have come across words with the prefix “be” …for example ….behold...such as in the phrase…“Beauty is in the eye of the beholder”

Do you know what the word and phrase mean?  Can you use the word in other sentences?

Simone is a member of our CPE class and she is extending her vocabulary with words from our weekly Blog.

Saturday night was party night again till 4am then recovery Sunday with a quick shopping trip to a surf factory outlet and a zorb ride in-between. Sounds like a great little weekend!

Minute To Win It!

Students put their logic to the test today to beat the 60 second challenge!

Teams of two had a minute to complete a game for the chance to win a $60 gift card and a Learn to Surf Lesson. The first game was to blow all the cups over with only air from a balloon, the next task was to get as many marbles into a plate using only chopsticks, the deciding task for the final was to get an entire roll of toilet paper wrapped around their hand. All but two teams didn’t make the cut so the decider was the tissue challenge. Teams had one minute to take out 200 tissues from a box one by one taking turns. With 5 seconds to go both teams still had quite a few tissues left. They gave all the effort they had but unfortunately none of the teams completed the task in a minute. It was decided that the prize would be split between both teams which made them very happy. Congratulations to Andy, Lincoln, Jason and Rooey… you are all winners!
