Family Day with Progressive in Australia

 Progressive Family Day Australia face painting

Thank you to all our Clients and Candidates who joined us at our Family Day last Saturday.

We were delighted to have had more than 220 clients, candidates and their families join Progressive at a private screening of Captain Underpants at the HOYTS Entertainment Quarter.

Before the movie, there were fun-filled activities such as face painting, balloon sculpting, an activity area and many others. Many of the children (and adults!) enjoyed themselves as they partook in the activities that were specially arranged for them.

This was a great opportunity for the team at Progressive to give back to our clients and candidates, and to build stronger relationships with not just them, but their families too. It was extremely rewarding to see the happy faces on all the attendees outside the normal working environment.

Miranda Rutherford, Senior Principal Consultant from the Progressive team shared, “It was overall such a great day and a really nice way to get to know our clients and contractors better. I'm really looking forward to the next event and the next time we get to spend time with our contractors and clients again!"

On the day, we ran a short clip to about SOS Children's Villages, which has been our chosen charity since 2009.  Through our involvement we have become one of SOS Children's Transformational Corporate Partners and one of their largest supporters of abandoned and orphaned children around the world.  If you’d like to find out more about SOS Children’s Villages Philippines please contact us on [email protected] or if you’d like to donate please click on the following link:  http://www.sosphilippines.org/donation

We hope that everyone enjoyed the event as much as we did and we look forward to meeting more of you the next family day.
