Meet our Educational Leader
Lauren Palmer
Kia ora! My name is Lauren, and I am the Educational Leader at Above and Beyond The Lakes. I am a qualified primary teacher and previously worked as the Head Teacher in the Young Children's room. I began working at Above and Beyond in early 2023, straight out of teachers college at Bethlehem Tertiary Institute, after changing career paths from hospitality. I stepped into my current role at the beginning of 2024.
I am married with two school-aged daughters, and I am passionate about fostering collaboration and unity through kindness and respect. My goal is to help create a loving, well-supported, and safe learning environment for our whānau, their tamariki, and our Kaiako where all can learn, grow, and flourish.
