The Special Day Before New Year's Eve
Everyone celebrates New Year’s Eve but we changed the custom and celebrated the day before New Year too. The team was taken for a picnic at Zanzari Waterfalls. Located very close to the banks of River Vatrak in Degham, Zanzari Waterfalls is a beautiful 25ft high waterfall, about 80kn away from Ahmadabad.
Staff had a relaxing day by enjoying the natural seating on the rocks. A fun filled day away from the office surroundings is indeed a very healthy way of team building and that is exactly what we did. Absolutely shattered but full relaxed, we came back to begin the countdown to 2017.
The Countdown To 2017
V3Cube celebrated Christmas and New Year in style in unique ways every year. This year there was a weeklong countdown to usher in 2017, with a different activity planned for each day of that week. Every day two winners were selected in the spirit of the festive season.
26th December was the official Christmas day in the office since 25th was a Sunday. Staff came in red and white outfits with the traditional Christmas Cap. The grotto was set up for Baby Jesus and the office was gaily decorated. The traditional Christmas tree took a place of pride in the office. After all, Santa needed a warm welcome in welcoming colours.
27th December was a flowery day with staff wearing flower printed outfits, and the whole office was decorated with colourful, sweet-scented flowers. The festive mood reflected on everyone’s face and it was indeed a very joyous affair.
Fun And Games Galore To Usher In 2017
With only a few days to go to the New Year, the staff was in high spirits - after all, it has been a very successful year for V3CUBE.
28th December was officially the Chocolate Day with boys turning up in blue and pink is the obvious colour for the girls. Chocolates of all flavours, sizes and brands were exchanged and it was indeed a very sweet day.
29th December was dedicated to our Indian roots with staff wearing colourful traditional outfits. Boys turned up in the traditional kurtas whilst the ladies adorned themselves in either a saree or the traditional salvar kameez.
Diwali 2016 Gifts Distribution, Celebration and Fun
Hindus celebrate Diwali, the festival of light, throughout the world. Diyas or lamps are lit in every Hindu home to symbolise the inner light that protects us from the darkness. Diwali is associated with Laxmi, the Goddess of Wealth and Prosperity, with the new Indian financial year starting as of this day. On this day, the Goddess is worshipped and old business accounts being closed and a new account set up in the New Year.
Diwali is also celebrated because it is said that Lord Rama triumphed over Ravana, the demon king of Lanka. After vanquishing him, he returned to Ayodhya on this day.
At V3CUBE, the staff and management celebrate this day as a family, with everyone dressing up in colourful traditional clothes, and the office being gaily decorated with diyas and colourful rangolis. Another fun filled day, the team members are appreciated for their hard work and achievements. Chocolates, gifts and hampers are given to every member of the V3CUBE family. We break up for this festive period for a few days, only to return in the New Year to look forward to another rewarding year in which we hope to reach higher pinnacles.
Diwali 2016 - Charity Drive - Clothes for under-privileged People
Happy as we were, we did not forget that there are many people in the society, who are not in a position to enjoy Diwali and its festivities. V3CUBE family has made it a mission to think of these unfortunate people and try to do something for them. This year, Operation Help the Needy involved donation of clothes, which the team member brought. Clothes that they do not need, or do not fit in were donated to the cause, whilst some of them even brought in new clothes in the spirit of Diwali. The joy on the faces of the destitute families is what has made our Diwali extra special.
