About Education & Care Service
Education & Care Services are mainstream early learning centres that offer full-day or part-day care with a structured curriculum, qualified teachers, and a focus on learning through play. They cater to families needing flexible childcare options and wanting a balanced approach that supports social, physical, and early academic development in a diverse environment.
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 Freyberg Community Pre-School, it is best to ask the centre directly how they apply 20 Hours ECE.

Parent Reviews
“What an amazing Preschool my kids attend. I was scared at first because I didn't know how my kids would be in a new environment. I was happy they fitted in so well. My daughter had no problem fitting in but my son was very shy at the beginning but now he is finally finding his voice. I honestly love how the teachers are so welcoming and friendly. They take into consideration feedback from me and what I'm hoping to see in my kids and their learning. The best preschool in Te Atatu South.”
“We have been so happy with Freyberg Preschool, we have had two of our girls be able to enjoy this special preschool. Both our girls absolutely love all of the teachers and look forward to preschool, we have found all the teachers are kind and caring and always 100% happy to be at preschool. I have always been amazed by all the amazing activities that are set up for all the children to enjoy daily, they are never the same set up. I would recommend this preschool to anyone that lives in the area! We will be sad when the time comes and our youngest finishes at preschool.”
“I was very nervous moving my daughter from another local reliable ECE provider that we had attended for many years (two kids)… but it is hands down one of the best decisions our family has made. My daughter is consistently supported, challenged daily, engaged, taught values that are important to us, and most importantly she looks forward to attending every day! The teachers are incredible and long-serving - the invitations to play every morning are expansive and varied. The facilities are clean and fun, and we love that the preschool is integrated with the school so no stress when it’s time to transition. 100% recommend”
“My Son has been at Freyberg Preschool for the last 18 months and it had been incredible. They have a long standing team of amazing teachers who are welcoming and set up creative learning experiences to challenge the learning of every child. Freyberg Preschool also has a great community feel and connection to the school next door which the children are able to visit regularly with library days etc. Highly recommend this preschool!”
“Absolutely amazing preschool.. I have sent 3 of my children here over a span of many years and it is consistently great. Friendly teachers, great atmosphere, good range of resources for all types of learning, great structure and an all round fabulous place for learning. I Very highly recommend Freyberg community Preschool.”
