Overcome Your Fears

Learning to deal with difficult situations is an important process. If you want your staff to get out of their comfort zones, this is the experience for you. Having fear is a normal response to a given situation and is actually important for keeping us safe. But being able to gain control in these situations can be a valuable tool. During a Reptile Encounters Show, your staff will be exposed to all sorts of critters including crocodiles, snakes, birds, tarantulas and maybe a few cuddly ones too. The experience can increase employee confidence, be useful for overcoming fears and help productivity on a daily basis.

Unique Team Building Activities Melbourne

Team building in the office has a huge range of vital benefits. It can enable the managers to better understand the communication patterns of their workers, allow staff to better understand the impact they have on each other, and help to identify otherwise hidden issues between staff members. Being around and holding animals many people are fearful of, can assist in developing a culture of trust, and gives staff a day that is not only truly memorable, but a shared positive experience.

Python Challenge

This is where we introduce Amy the Scrub python, Australia’s longest species of snake. Or Olivia the Olive Python, Australia’s largest species of snake! Amy has been known to lift up Robert Irwin until the point his tippy toes were lifting off the ground! And at 4.7 metres and close to 20 kgs, she is one very impressive snake. The Reptile Encounters record for the most number of people holding Olivia at once is 14, she is BIG! For this challenge your staff will have to work in unison to handle these amazing creatures. Watch how employees communicate and function as a team. Looking for more options? Explore our full range of wildlife corporate events – from stage shows and community activations to shopping centre entertainment. We guarantee it’ll be an experience they will never forget!
