Essex Solutions Facility in Serbia Closes Year With a Joyful Celebration

The holiday spirit was alive and well at the Essex Solutions facility in Serbia as employees, their families, and most importantly, the children, gathered for a heartwarming Christmas celebration. With 65 children aged 0-12 years, it was a special event where families could come together, share in the joy of the season, and create memories that would last a lifetime.

As the children and their parents arrived, they were welcomed with open arms and guided to the canteen, where the Christmas magic was already in full swing. The company had organized a Christmas Workshop that was both fun and creative, providing the perfect opportunity for the children to express their imaginations.?

This year’s festivities began with the distribution of gift vouchers—redeemable at local toy stores or sporting goods shops—ensuring that each child would receive a gift tailored to their individual interests.

The main highlight of the workshop was the chance to make festive decorations for the Christmas tree. With the help of colleagues Marija ?apkanov and Vesna Strbac Brankov, the children crafted beautiful paper ornaments that would later hang proudly on the tree in the entry of the location, adding a personal touch to the holiday decorations. The workshop wasn’t just about crafting; it was a social event, too. The children made new friends, laughed together, and shared in the joy of the season. Parents were included as well, joining their little ones in preparing the holiday cards and decorations, further strengthening the sense of community and togetherness.

Ivana Avdic , who served as the moderator for the workshop, made sure everything ran smoothly, guiding the children and parents with enthusiasm and care. Her creativity was evident in every part of the event, from the colorful decorations to the playful activities she organized.?

Then, the moment the children had been eagerly waiting for arrived—Santa Claus made his grand entrance! Santa, played by one of the maintenance team members, added a touch of magic to the day. With a hearty laugh and a jolly spirit, he posed for pictures with the children and handed out sweet treats—chocolates, candies, and more, much to the delight of the little ones.

But the joy didn’t stop there. As part of the company’s ongoing commitment to the local community, Essex Solutions also made plans to hold a humanitarian initiative. In the spirit of giving, the company is preparing vouchers for school supplies and clothing to be donated to children in need within the local community.

The Christmas workshop at Essex Solutions was a beautiful reminder of the power of community, creativity, and compassion. It wasn’t just an event; it was a celebration of family, friendship, and the joy that comes from spreading love and kindness to those around us.
