Women’s Month Celebration: A Sweet Day of Connection

This August, our South Africa team’s Women’s Month celebration at Muse Bakery was nothing short of sweet success. From the whimsical delight of decorating cakes to sharing the yummy treats, the event was a fun mix of creativity and connection.

A Slice of Imagination

Cake decorating was first on the list and easily became a highlight of the event. With frosting, sprinkles, and a dash of ingenuity, the participants let their imaginations run wild, decorating their own creations with strokes of colour and flair. Some cakes displayed playfulness, while others with more artistry, but all were piped with personality. The hands-on activity sparked plenty of hearty laughter and playful competition, a perfect moment of warm connection.

Sweet Treats and Good Company

As it turns out, you can have your cake and eat it, too!

Not that many of our colleagues were eager to take a bite of their sweet creations and ruin all their hard work so soon, but thankfully, they didn’t have to. A larger spread of tasty snacks and drinks was waiting for them after their decorating endeavour. Between bites and sips, our South Africa team enjoyed relaxed conversations that went beyond the usual daily grind, a humble celebration that brought them even closer together.

Bonds Beyond the Bakery

At the end of the day, through the light-hearted chatter and the small bites of cake in between, the team didn’t lose sight of the subject of celebration. More than frosting cakes, enjoying delicious food, and having a fun time, the day was about honouring women, and not just those who make Staff Domain what it is today, either.

It was a recognition of women everywhere: women of the past who paved the way for change in dignified silence or for all the world to see, women of the present who continue the good work, and women of the future who are tasked to carry forward legacies while making their own mark.

The Staff Domain Women’s Month Celebration was a joy to hold and an honour to observe.  What’s more, this is just the beginning. With more staff engagements on the horizon, the team can look forward to future events that will only get more exciting, more fun, and more meaningful. 

Here’s to celebrating women not just this month, but every day, and to making more moments that are truly the icing on the cake.

 

Staff Domain Cebu Sports Fest 2025: Sweat, Smiles, and Spirit

Bullseye!

This year’s Staff Domain Cebu Sports Fest hit the mark, literally, with its line-up of traditional archery and Super Cube, a new and digital take on the challenge of agility and precision.

Trading their laptops for bows and their leather soles for rubber, our Cebu team gathered at iSports, SM Jmall Cebu for an evening of friendly competition and laughter.  In the midst of whizzing arrows and glowing floors, our colleagues put on a dynamic display of intensity, dedication, and teamwork.

Aiming for Fun and Precision

Starting strong with a round of archery, the competitors all tapped into their inner marksmen and quickly got into the spirit of things. It didn’t matter too much that some held a bow and arrow for the first time while others were eager to show off their steady aim. By the time the last arrow hit its mark, all of the participants had shown their determination and true enjoyment for the sport.

Quick Moves and Quicker Thinking

The fun didn’t stop there!

Soon after archery wrapped up, our Cebu colleagues shifted their sights onto winning the next challenge: the Super Cube.

A modern take on the classic The Floor is Lava game, the Super Cube is an immersive and interactive activity that tests players’ agility, quick thinking, and teamwork. The participants had to step onto a massive digital grid floor with glowing cubes, avoiding the moving red lights while ensuring the blues were all pressed just before the clock ran out. 

The room was filled with an entertaining mix of panic, intense focus, and bursts of laughter as the competitors ran and leapt across the interactive grid. Cheers constantly erupted from the sidelines, a warm display of camaraderie cutting through the high-energy atmosphere. While the winners got to celebrate their victory, everyone certainly got swept up in the fun of the challenge.

Meet the Winners

Everyone’s a winner in our eyes, but of course, what’s a tournament without a proper crowning of champions?

Ending on a Delicious Note

We started the sports fest with an exciting round of archery where everyone got the chance to be Katniss Everdeen, but the true Hunger Games was saved for the end: dinner at Taishu Yakiniku!

Over the sizzling of quality cuts of meat and the clinking of cold drinks, our Cebu team enjoyed an evening of lively conversation, hearty laughter, and even heartier appetites. Their encouraging words and fond praises for each other resonated across the table, a true display of fellowship and togetherness.

Highlights that Last

The highlights of the Staff Domain Cebu Sports Fest 2025 went beyond hitting targets and beating the clock, beyond the usual takeaway of sportsmanship and teamwork.

By stepping away from the usual workday, the team had the chance to enjoy each other’s company in a new and refreshing way, outside the four walls of an office or a video call. Between the cheers during archery, the energy in the Super Cube challenge, and the laughter shared over dinner, events like this remind us that it’s not only the big wins that matter, but also the moments of connection, encouragement, and shared joy along the way.

The day had to come to a close, but the smiles and stories carried forward as lasting reminders that while the games may have ended, team spirit goes on.
