Get creative in the kitchen at cooking classes
If your team are comprised of a mixture of ages and different personalities, the best way to bring them together is by organising cooking classes in Sydney. Cooking classes are a fantastic team building exercise where everyone has to work together. By using your analytical and creative skills together, they’ll be faced with solving problems each step of the way. The best part? At the end of the class, everyone will sit down together and enjoy a beautiful restaurant-worthy meal — cooked by the team!
With thousands of cooking classes to choose from, it’s easy to support local Sydney cooking schools and learn how to cook different cuisines from around the world. We may not be able to travel right now, so give your team a taste of adventure without leaving the city by organising Japanese cooking classes, Italian pasta or pizza making or even spicy Indian cooking classes!
Send your team to a kombucha making class in Sydney and they might just end up swapping a beer at the bar for a healthier kombucha next time they go for after-work drinks. Kombucha is a fantastic health replacement for beer, especially when you’re looking for a non-alcoholic drink that isn’t water or a sugar-laden fizzy drink.
Taught by a local kombucha expert, the team will learn about the fermentation process and why kombucha is good for your health, and more specifically, your gut. Anyone who has an interest in kombucha will find this kombucha class in Sydney absolutely fascinating.

Satisfy the team’s sweet tooth with dessert classes
For teams that possess a few sweet tooths, consider getting hands-on at a dessert making class! Guided by a passionate teacher, your team can learn how to make everything from Korean Ggot Tteok to Japanese Wagashi or can have a go at piping buttercream into beautiful designs at a cupcake decorating class.
At the end of the class, everyone gets to return home with a collection of colourful, sweet treats and the confidence to make them again and again.
Invite nature in at a terrarium workshop

Terrarium workshops are popular for team building activities in Sydney because they provide a creative outlet that everyone loves. While it’s a rewarding DIY experience, it’s also a relaxing and meditative class that will help the team take time out of a busy day and connect with nature. When we’re more relaxed, work solutions come a lot more easily. As the team gets stuck into the team bonding, conversations will flow and they might learn a lot about each other they didn’t know before.
Learn how to craft your own terrarium and build beautiful layers before choosing which succulents you want to complete your own mini-ecosystem.
Create with clay at a wheel throwing class
Imagine hosting a beautiful pottery wheel throwing class on a Friday night after work. The team will love getting together for an alcohol-free and fun night together as you learn to mould and shape your own pottery. Even if the team are apprehensive about spending their Friday night at a pottery workshop in Sydney, they’ll thank you on Monday morning for giving them the best start for a weekend of zero hangovers and feeling rejuvenated for a productive week ahead.
Taught at a local pottery studio, the team will be mesmerised as they learn to make their own ceramic mugs, bowls or cups they can use at home every day. They’ll be able to switch off from work mode and switch into spending quality time together, getting to know more about the people they work with every day.
Hit the streets for a smartphone photography workshop
If there’s one thing everyone in your workplace will have in common, it’s a phone. Bring them together by organising a fun and entertaining smartphone photography workshop in Sydney.
There’s much more to taking photos than you might think! Guided by a local photographer, they will take the team through the city sights to capture some of the best architecture and landmarks in the CBD in the best way possible. Learn how to capture a moment in time through composition, light and perspective. Expect to learn about the best filters and presets to transform your images. The team will love seeing their Instagram fame shoot up.
While a photography course in Sydney might keep the team interested in this team building activity, the skills they pick up could come in handy if you need any work photos taken in the future!
Get artsy at a painting class
Even Mike from accounting will see his creativity come to life at painting classes for team-building. There's nothing like inviting people to express themselves on canvas to encourage bonding and connection. Whether you choose to head on down to a local art studio or have the class come to you, our painting classes are beginner-friendly and open to all with friendly instructors onboard to provide guidance. From abstract splatters or meticulously detailed landscapes, colleagues will enjoy the opportunity to see their vision come to life. The best part is that painting classes leave hands free for drinking and nibbling so you can add some tea or coffee and snacks to the mix to keep the team's energy up. So, add a splash of colour to team building activities with painting classes.
Virtual activities for team building
In a world where remote work is increasingly common, building connections among team members scattered across different locations is super important. Enter virtual team building activities—the perfect solution for bringing colleagues together regardless of geographical barriers.
From online cooking classes to making sculptures or paintings at home, these online team building activities will keep employees entertained from the comfort of their own home and they're a great way to ensure no one is missing out on all the fun.
