Staff Winter Wellness

Join us for a month of movement, and connection with Staff Winter Wellness! It’s the perfect excuse to get away from your desk, try something new, and get involved with your team over the quieter mid-year period.

We’ve got weekly staff classes, casual Just Play sport sessions, wellbeing workshops, challenges, special events, and a $28 for 28 days gym offer, so there’s something for everyone, no matter your fitness level.

It’s also a great opportunity to get your team involved, build some team spirit, and create a bit of friendly competition across departments.

There are heaps of prizes up for grabs throughout the month!

Come along, bring your workmates, and let’s make winter a little more active, social, and fun.
