#Legends!!!
Yesterday, we all hit the beach for our surf lesson! It was quite a windy day but there were still plenty waves to catch 🙂 Our lesson was with Let’s Go Surfing and we started out at their shop first, where everyone got their wetsuits. From there, everyone got fitted to the right long board and we headed off to the beach to begin our lesson!
Once everyone was clear on the basic steps, it was time to hit the waves!
Keep an eye on the Lexis activity calendar to see when we will have our next surf lesson and be sure to sign up at reception! 🙂
On Wednesday we had a delightful morning and afternoon making dreamcatchers!
I demonstrated first how to make the netting and then assisted the students to do their own (with some needing more assistance than others!)
Using our box of materials, beads, shells and feathers we then decorated our dreamcatchers, with some beautiful results!
Carlos showed us just one of the many things they can now do with their dreamcatcher…
Previously students have given them as a gift (often to their homestay families!), hung them in their vans before going off traveling, decorated their bags with them, and taken them home as a souvenir of their time in Byron! Or they can use them for their original purpose and simply hang them in their rooms to protect them from bad dreams!
We started off with a wire ring, which we had to wrap, using various bits and pieces from our large box of materials, threads, wools and twine.
The next step then was to make the web part of the dreamcatcher. We watched a video and then I showed them in more detail, how to go about making their own. It looks a bit tricky but is surprisingly easy once you get into it. It is also very therapeutic! 🙂
Then it was time to add some embellishments to our webs. We had lots of beautiful bits and bobs – like feathers, beads, shells…
I was very impressed with the final results!
