Our Experiences

TEAM BUILDING & EVENTS

What’s involved?

Heat team building is our brain child. Having conducted group fitness training and facilitated events for many years, JD decided to extend his passion into the corporate world, creating many supercharged team building days for businesses looking “something different”.

Jason is not a “suit”, you won’t be served with corporate speak on your team building day. Instead each team building event led by the crew at Heat Team Building display the MFB ethos of Teamwork, mateship and camaraderie.

HEAT Team Building offers several fun-fuelled, action packed team building programs all based around life as a firefighter. We don’t take ourselves too seriously, we have a laugh but believe we deliver amazing days that focus on bonding and fun, that your team will remember for a long time.

The only question is: Can you handle the HEAT?

 

Testimonials

“In any change journey, collaboration and trust are essential ingredients to effective teamwork. The Heat team demonstrate these values in all that they do. This is the reason why this is their 4th time facilitating our corporate team build days. JD invested the time to understand my objectives, and the outcomes that I needed to achieve, and tailored the event to meet these specific needs. It was BRILLIANT……….they captured all the right themes, it was all relevant, the impact was real and practical……….all participants were nodding, it fully resonated!”

“We have had the pleasure of working with Heat Team Building on 2 occasions so far and Jason and the team were delightful to work with. Jason is very organised, offered fun suggestions/alternatives and created a great vibe on the day of the activity. I only heard positive comments from the participants including “it was the best team building activity they have ever experienced”.

I would not hesitate to work with Jason and the team again and I would also strongly recommend them to others.”

“People are still talking about the day. I can’t walk away from my desk without someone mentioning how good the session was, how friendly the ‘guys’ were, how professional you guys were. JD this, JD that!!

I still get stopped going to the toilet, walking down the corridor, going to the kitchen….everyone’s talking about it….it’s like being associated to rock stars!!! When I asked ‘who won?’ – no one really knew….I guess that’s a sign of success!! “

FAQs

What is the program based on?

All our activities are designed around the Firefighter’s ethos of teamwork, camaraderie and hard work. Being kind, helpful, inclusive and never leaving your mates behind.

WHAT AGE GROUPS ARE YOUR PROGRAMS DESIGNED FOR?

All activities are tailored to the age group we are catering for on the day. Everyone participates.

We find participants have to be at least 3 to get the most out of the experiences – remember we run incursions for ELC so we are well versed with the younger age group.

Yes, we ramp it up for the older kids / adults too!

HOW LONG DOES A PROGRAM RUN FOR?

It all depends on the experience. Usually an incursion will run for 2 hours and run either in the morning or afternoon and we also offer a 4 hour option.  During holiday programs, we tailor the activities to suit one hour slot, same with birthdays!

We can tailor pretty much anything for your school, holiday camp or corporate day. Just give us a call and we can chat about the options… there’s not much we can’t do!

HOW FAR IN ADVANCE DO YOU NEED TO BOOK?

The earlier the better. Usually by the start of any given month, we are booked out for that month but we try and make it work for everyone. We don’t have a quiet month, if you book in Winter, we move indoors.  

WHAT DO YOU BRING?

Other than our incredible sense of humour, we bring everything you need! Our mission is to create an experience the children will remember for a very long time. Our set up is extensive (it usually takes us an hour to set up for a 2 hour session) and we supply all the equipment, bump in ontime, and bump out when we are done, leaving the grounds as we found it.

DO YOU DO BIRTHDAY PARTIES?

Hell yes we do! We love Birthday parties and of all ages too! Check our Firefighter Birthday party page to see what we provide and contact us to book your date early – weekends fill up very fast.

Are your experiences suited to adults?

When we began Heat, we designed challenging Firefighter experiences for corporate team building days – so YES, they absolutely are. Check our Team Building page for what an “Adult” Firefighter day would look like for you. Again, we do tailor experiences and our activities cater for all fitness levels.
