At Platinum Homes, we believe in building more than just homes - we’re passionate about supporting the communities we’re part of.

That’s why we were proud to team up with the Gallagher Chiefs to launch the Ultimate Chiefs Mini-Fan competition - a fun and inspiring campaign designed especially for primary school kids who love the Chiefs and aren’t afraid to show it.
Bringing the Chiefs Spirit to Life
The Ultimate Chiefs Mini-Fan competition invited kids across the region to get creative and show us what makes them the ultimate fan. The challenge? Create a game day supporter sign answering the big question:
“What would you do to win the ultimate Chiefs fan experience?”
Open to primary school-aged students, the competition wasn’t just about individual prizes - the winning entry would unlock an epic Chiefs experience for an entire classroom.
Meet Our Winner: Corban-Rei from Hukanui Primary
We’re thrilled to announce that Corban-Rei from Class 4 at Hukanui Primary School took out the top spot as our Ultimate Chiefs Mini-Fan. His creative sign and big Chiefs energy captured the judges’ attention - earning him and his classmates an unforgettable experience.

A VIP adventure at the Chiefs Captain’s Run at FMG Stadium Waikato. The class got the chance to:
- Meet Chiefs players in person

And the prize didn’t stop there. He also scored:
- $1,500 worth of sports equipment for his school
