Sara Haddon

Sara Haddon was born in Wanganui and spent her childhood as an only child. With no siblings to squabble with, she gained a family of brothers and sisters while learning drama and acting in shows. In her teens, her focus switched to long days and after-school hours riding her pony. Born to a loved and dedicated school caretaker for nearly 40 years and an entrepreneurial and successful mother, she worked hard for the experiences that she created. Gaining an Education Degree in Palmerston North, and meeting her now husband, they relocated to Auckland. Here Sara gained an LLB (Hons) at Auckland University and worked for a small time as a commercial and property lawyer. Seeking more creative outlets, roles as an event manager and photographer followed. Together with her husband, they purchased rights to establish a new daycare for nearly eighty children from its infancy. Sara an active ‘Mumager’ to both sons and their many sports and interests, has involved coaching sports, driving teams, organising, PTA work and hours of painting murals. Sara now enjoys teaching in several schools and pursuing her creative outlets.
