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 Te Rapa, it is best to ask the centre directly how they apply 20 Hours ECE.

“Lots of complaints were dismissed, the last straw for us was when my infant went the whole day without being being fed. Staff lied to us and said he had half a pouch but all the pouches were still in the baby bag when I picked him up. Dont even get me started about the time they covered up a gash in my daughters head with her fringe, we had to take her to Tui Medical and have it glued, it was dismissed and deflected back at us. Minus 10 stars”

“Future Kids have gone above and beyond for my son. I cannot praise them enough for all the help and support they have given us. They have made accommodations for my sons needs as well as attending workshops to learn how to better support him as well as working with the other professionals in his team to make sure they are helping him the best way they can.”
