Exploring the land down under: Aussie tasting adventure at Lexis Manly!

Our students having a blast at our Aussie Tasting!

At Lexis Manly, we believe in providing our students with unique and enriching experiences that extend beyond the classroom. Recently our students participated in an epic Aussie Tasting at Lexis Manly. What a journey it was! From the iconic to the unexpected, we explored a world of flavours that truly captured the essence of Australia. Let’s relive the experience and share some of our favourite moments and discoveries.

Embracing Aussie Cuisine:

Our Aussie Tasting presented a unique opportunity to savour the diverse and vibrant food culture of the land down under. From the iconic vegemite sandwiches to the yummy Tim-tams, our students truly embraced the experience and loved tasting the different snacks and drinks. They not only expanded their culinary horizons but also gained insights into the customs, and the ‘Aussie’ way of life.

Our students truly embraced this activity and loved learning about all the different foods on display. We had an array of food for our students to try including: Tim-tams, Lamingtons, some classic Aussie beers, an array of Aussie ‘lollies’ or candy, Vegemite and many more.

Some classic Aussie chips including Cheezels, Burger Rings and Shapes.

Our Australian Beer lineup included XXXX Gold, Tooheys New, Victoria Bitters (VB’s) and Ginger Beer.

Some delicious sweets including Tim-tams, Caramello Koalas and Lollies!

Practicing English skills:

Participating in our Aussie Tasting, provides an excellent opportunity for our students to practice and enhance English language skills in a dynamic and immersive environment. Our students were each given a ‘Taste Test’ sheet to write down their opinions on each food or drink they taste tested. From communicating and collaborating with classmates and discussing culinary techniques, every aspect of this activity offers a chance to engage with the English language. Moreover, discussing food preferences and describing the flavours and textures of different dishes allows students to express themselves fluently and confidently.

Making memories:

In our Aussie Tasting, students don’t just taste new food – they created lasting memories that nourish the soul. From the laughter shared to the sense of achievement, every moment during the activity became a cherished memory. These shared moments foster camaraderie and friendship, as students bond over their love for food and the joy of creating something together. Our students were able to make connections that extend beyond the class, forming lasting memories.

Thank you to everyone who joined this amazing activity!
