  Lexis English - Sunshine CoastAbout the
The Sunshine Coast boasts the very best of what Australia has to offer, lots of sunshine, stunning beaches and a world-class natural environment.  All of this is just an hour away from Brisbane’s international airport.
Lexis Sunshine Coast is perfectly positioned in central Maroochydore, adjacent to Sunshine Plaza and the mouth of the beautiful Maroochy River. The school is just moments from the beach, some fantastic surf breaks and Australia’s finest kite-boarding. There’s nothing quite like the feel of a new school and knowing that every morning you are walking into one of the most attractive learning environments in Australia, with outstanding study resources and recreational facilities, not to mention stunning ocean views from our third floor balcony. After school you have part-time work opportunities in Sunshine Plaza’s many retail and hospitality outlets, great public transport links up and down the Sunshine Coast and lots of affordable, high quality accommodation options within an easy walk or bike ride of school.
 
SCEC was founded in 1989 by Helen Thomas, and was well regarded in Australia as the first school to receive government accreditation for a curriculum which included community integration and cultural activities as part of its teaching program.The concepts for the school and the educational tours were initiated in the late 1980’s and began as short cultural exchange programs.  These were made up of English lessons on “how to communicate with the host family” and fun activities such as surfing lessons, canoeing and horse riding. Each tour was personalised for the individual group. The very first group to arrive in Noosa was made up of city councillors from Japan. This group’s arrival coincided with the worst flood Noosa had ever seen. The roads into Noosa were flooded and the hotel the group was booked into was under water. Nevertheless our mutual interest in education and international understanding (plus lots of laughs over dinner!) created long term friendships, and we all agreed that Noosa was the perfect location for program of that kind.  The weather has been better ever since, too! The College was originally intended to remain small with a maximum of 40 students.  Marketed mainly by word of mouth, it rapidly expanded well beyond that number. By 1995 the College was fully accredited and students were coming from Thailand, Korea, and Indonesia as well as Japan. By 1999, the capacity and enrolment at the College was 100 full-time students, and students were welcomed from Europe, South America and throughout Asia. With the retirement of Helen Thomas in 2004, Ian and Yasuko Pratt purchased shares in the school and integrated it into the Global Village English Centres group.  They expanded into new locations, including Brisbane (2006), Byron Bay (2007), Sunshine Coast (2009) and Perth (2010). In 2011, the company was rebranded as Lexis English, a new brand designed to highlight the unique Australian identity of the group. Today, Lexis English each year welcomes more than 2000 adult students and around 700 junior students from more than 50 countries around the world, and is one of Australia's largest privately owned language schools.
