Lexis English | Homestay Guideline ・ Use of Photos and Videos
Homestay in Australia
Please read all of Homestay information carefully, this information will help you make the most of your stay with our
great families. We understand sometimes it is difficult and confusing when you first arrive and our families understand
this to, but they will always help and advise you, so please do not be afraid to ask!
1) RELIGION Australians are primarily Christians; however people can practise their religions freely.
2) EQUALITY In Australia women and men are equal, you speak to a woman with the same respect as you would to a man. In Australia men and women do the same tasks, cleaning of the house, washing of dishes, clothes etc... are shared among the members of the family including a little help from yourself maybe!
3) RESPECT
Australians can be humorous, friendly, easy going people and believe in respect for each other, it is considered polite to say “PLEASE” and “THANK YOU” when asking for or receiving anything. Please remember to greet your Homestay hosts eg: Good morning, good day, hello and goodbye.
4) MEALS
You will receive 3 meals a day from your host, breakfast, a packed lunch and evening dinner with the family.
5) LAUNDRY Your host family will wash all your dirty laundry for you, just ask where you must put your laundry to be washed.
6) TOILETRIES
The host family will provide Soap only in the bathrooms, all other toiletries for example, toothbrush, toothpaste, shampoo and deodorants must be provided by yourself.
7) BATHROOMS
Please do not be too long in the shower, one 5 minute shower a day is acceptable as Australia is a water conscious country.
8) TELEPHONE
If you wish to use the Homestay telephone you must ask permission from your host family first. Make sure you do not spend too long on each call. If you wish to make international calls from the home telephone you should purchase an international telephone card – see Reception upon arrival for more information.
9) PART OF THE FAMILY A Homestay can be an interesting and rewarding experience for you and the family. It offers you an opportunity to better understand Australian culture, whilst also offering a secure and safe environment to live in. Try to fit into your host family and enjoy living as part of their family unit.
Talking is the best way to solve any problems, smile and interact with the family; your visit to Australia will then become a happy and memorable experience that you will never forget. Please talk to Lexis staff if you have any problems!
