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 Future Kids Preschool Hāwera, it is best to ask the centre directly how they apply 20 Hours ECE.

Parent Reviews
“Good Pre-School, only thing worth noting is it's quite dangerous that there's Staff Cars (including the managers, unsure why) parked in the Carpark during Drop Off & Pick Up so most of the time there's hardly any parks left or room to open doors on Vehicles without the risk of hitting doors on other cars.”
“FK Bell Block is such an amazing centre. The staff are incredible, great healthy meals, daily communication and updates, loads of educational and fun activities, and overall just a warm and welcoming place. Can’t recommend them highly enough. We will forever be grateful for the love and care given to our daughter while she was there for nearly 3 years”
