7 Away day

Gina Cuciniello

.....................................................................
The Managing Director of your company has recently read that fun at work is linked to higher
productivity, so hes decided to send all the staff in the London office on an away day a day
out to encourage team spirit and increase productivity!
You and your partner have been asked to choose a venue for the day. You have talked to some
members of staff from different departments about what they would like to do. Look at their
comments below and the newspaper cuttings and decide which venue would suit most people
in the company. You have a budget of 150 per person.
A relaxing day out would be
wonderful with just a little gentle
exercise and lots of good food. Can
we go somewhere near the office?
Oh, and no silly games, please!

Can we please do something

cultural? What about trying new
foods? We want to have fun and
spend time relaxing and chatting.

No boring discussion groups

with the old guys in
accounts, please! We want
lots of fun activities that
weve never done before!
