Platinum Homes Annual Conference 2024

This year’s conference is one that will remain unforgettable for all of us with one of the most memorable highlights being our visit to Vailele Primary School in Apia.

Unbeknownst to our group of attendees, our national office had secretly arranged for a container filled with essential education supplies—computers, chairs, books, and more—to be gifted to the school.

Walking into the school grounds and being welcomed by the warm smiles of the children and staff was an unforgettable experience, as we were graciously invited into their lives and to experience their culture.

It was a special day for us as a group—especially after the challenges the construction industry has faced over the past 12 months. Witnessing life from a different perspective was incredibly humbling, and a good reminder that when we stick together and focus on the positive, we can truly make a difference and do great things.Something that really resonates with us and our approach to working with our partners.

Thanks to the incredible generosity of local schools and businesses in the Bay of Plenty, we were able to donate over 200 books, along with new technology, including computers, headphones, and printers. Upon arriving at the school to learn about this, our conference group then got stuck in helping unpack and set it all up. Witnessing the excitement on the children’s faces was truly the heart of this year’s conference.

Each year, our annual conference gives us the chance to strengthen our connections and reflect on the loyalty and support we receive from our suppliers.

A massive thank you to all of our valued supply partners and to everyone who joined us and contributed to making this year’s conference in Samoa one for the books.
