What Is 20 Hours ECE funding?
20 Hours ECE is a government-funded initiative that helps reduce the cost of early childhood education for families with tamariki aged 3–5. Eligible children can receive up to 20 hours of funded care and education each week at participating services. Centres can set their own enrolment patterns and may ask for optional charges, but the funded hours themselves should be free of compulsory fees. If you are unsure how this works at Brightlands Childcare Centre, Vickery Street, it is best to ask the centre directly how they apply 20 Hours ECE.

“My angel has just started her Kindy journey at Brightlands Childcare Centre which is truly an amazing experience for her. Staff and facilities are absolutely incredible and really understand her. The teachers are all very approachable and keep you in the loop by sharing stories about your kids on story park. Plenty of space available for the car park. Absolutely love this Kindy, or more importantly, my daughter love this Kindy. I cannot think of a better place.”
“What a lovely place! Both the kids rooms and teachers are amazing. The facilities are awesome for kids! Definitely worth the look.”
“I visited Brightlands and was amazed at the resources and the facilities. The staff was very professional, attentive, answered all my questions thoroughly. The facilities were up-to-date with today's infrastructure (e.g., I loved the integrated indoor/outdoor flow). In addition, I found the layout stimulating, and the separate age group concept very relevant and innovative.”
