End Of Year Celebration Ideas
2020 has certainly challenged us all to rethink how we work, how we interact with colleagues, family and friends, and how we look after ourselves and others.
It has also provided us with an opportunity to rethink what really matters and how can we support businesses across ANZ to be their best and boost their employee engagement.
At WRK+ we are about work, plus so much more. We want to ignite meaningful interactions between people and workplaces across ANZ to enable them to be their best.
While the novelty of Zoom meetings has certainly worn off, it is time to bring back the team spirit and have some fun as this year comes to a close. We have collaborated with Funlocka to design four unique Christmas experiences we are pleased to offer you. These are all interactive utilising web conferencing facilities, so your team members from interstate can join in some fun with their colleagues anywhere!
#1 A virtual visit from Santa himself!
Working from home has brought families closer together, and in some cases even allowed us to share our families with our colleagues and teams. Using the power of technology, WRK+ can arrange for your team and their families to have a special virtual visit from Santa.
During this interactive, real time event, Santa will dial in from the North Pole to read out special messages from family members/kids, take questions from the children, tell us about how his Christmas planning is going and spread some fun and laughter!
Let our virtual Santa Claus create smiles, love, laughter and spread a little magic to your team this Christmas that your extended team family will never forget.
#2 Random acts of Christmas kindness.
Christmas is a great time to build team moral with a corporate social responsibility activity.
Working with Kath Koschel from the Kindness Factory, your team will embark on a kindness journey. Kath will share her incredible story with your team and run a Play Kind Cards session. Play Kind Cards is a fun social experience, breaking down barriers and encouraging people to step out of their comfort zone to pay it forward.
Each participant will receive a Kind Card Challenge which they have a week to complete. For each completed challenge, your organisation could donate a amount to a charity in their honour.
Go big, be brazen, inspire greatness. Have fun, play kind, do good. Show your team the REAL meaning of Christmas and play kind.
#3 Songwriting workshop with Jess + Matt
Is anyone missing office karaoke? We have found a way to unite your teams, remotely, using music!
This is a chance for your team to make music as a group - and to create a song together, online with the incredible duo Jess + Matt, finalists on X Factor Australia.
Once your team is logged in, our musicians run the show, entertaining your team and guiding the group through chord selection and collaborative lyric writing or maybe you can even remix a Christmas Classic!
It could be a hilarious rap version of ‘Deck the Halls’, a rock version of ‘Santa Claus is Coming to Town’ or a country version of ‘Silent Night’.
No musical experience is required. It’s a fun, light hearted experience that will bring loads of laughs!
An .mp3 version of the song is later recorded for you to share with attendees.
#4 The Masked Santa!
2020 has brought up many surprises, including the #1 TV show, The Masked Singer. At WRK+ we found a way to bring it to your team to have a bit of fun! WRK+ will send a hamper to each employees home ahead of the event. Your team will log in to a virtual guessing game with a celebrity Santa!
This event can involve one or more teams from your organisation. Our host will take questions from the group in a live chat format, provide some fun visual clues and our celebrity Santa will answer questions and provide hints to help work out his or her identity!
When a team/person correctly guesses our Mystery Santa, they will be awarded a prize and of course a special message from our celebrity Santa themselves.
