This Christmas, we're switching things up! Instead of our traditional Secret Santa, we're introducing the White Elephant Gift Exchange โ a fun game where you can unwrap a mystery present or steal a gift from someone else!
How to participate:
Bring one wrapped, unlabelled gift.
Gift budget: maximum $30 AUD.
Participation is completely optional.
Choose something fun, useful, or suitable for a wide range of people!
How the game works:
Participants draw numbers to determine the playing order.
The first player selects and unwraps a gift.
Each following player can either unwrap a new gift or steal an already-opened gift.
If your gift is stolen, you can choose another gift or steal from someone else.
Each gift can be stolen a maximum of twice before it's locked!
โฐ Duration: Approximately 30โ45 minutes.
Who will walk away with the most sought-after present of the night? ๐
๐ฒ Potluck Rules (Optional)
This event will be fully catered, but for the Masterchefs in the community, VAIT has brought back the tradition of Potluck party!
Rules:
If you already bought a ticket AND brought food, please notify the organisers. We will organise a 50% refund to your tickets.
For ease of transport and preventing food waste, please only bring enough for 3 people.
โค๏ธ Let's Celebrate Together!
The VAIT Xmas Party is more than just a Christmas celebration. It's an opportunity to reconnect with familiar faces, welcome new friends, and celebrate the people who make our community special.
