Taranaki

Overview

Life Education Trust Taranaki has been successfully delivering the Life Education programme to empower children to make healthy choices.

In 2022 we visited 73 schools, taught 999 lessons and saw 10,441 children. Our dedicated Trustees continue to provide fundraising activities in order to allow more children to be educated by LET Taranaki.

Our Educators

Megan Lilley Megan has over 29 years of teaching experience, both in New Zealand and England, mostly with intermediate aged students. She is Taranaki born and bred and enjoys being active outdoors. Due to a passion for health, physical education and student wellbeing, Megan joined Life Education in 2014. She loves building relationships with the many wonderful Taranaki schools, with the aim of working together to empower tamariki and rangatahi to make positive life choices.

Tom Lancaster Kia ora koutou, my name is Tom and I live in Hawera with my wife and three daughters. I enjoy spending time in nature and keeping fit through boxing. I have taught for a number of years in Taranaki at a range of different schools. I feel immensely proud to be part of Life Education and enjoy being able to encourage our tamariki and rangatahi to make positive life choices. Being able to work alongside Harold and Megan are huge bonuses too! Please say hello if you see me out and about.
