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 Junior Junction Lunn Ave, it is best to ask the centre directly how they apply 20 Hours ECE.

Parent Reviews
“We have had 2 of our kids at Junior Junction and both of them have been very happy. The teachers form real bonds with the kids which makes it a lot easier for the kids to go. They have also recently renovated the play area which means the kids can play all year round and pick and choose from all the options. All round a great facility.”
“We absolutely love this daycare. It truly feels like a home away from home! The staff are all so caring and professional. The center has recently been refurbished. It has a great are for babies and then sperate area for toddlers which I love. The food is amazing according to my toddler 🙂🙂 Best daycare!!!”
“We changed to Junior Junction a few months ago from My Kindy and we couldn't be happier with our decision. Our 2 year old settled in quickly and is thriving. The staff are so friendly, there is no staff turnover, and our daughter is happy and learning everyday. We couldn't recommend this centre more.”
“Choosing the right daycare is important for the growth and development of your child. As a child psychologist and mother of 2, I compared 10 different daycares before settling with Junior Junction. My child has been there since 9 months old and I've seen how the whole team has gone above and beyond to offer the best care for my child and to make things easier for us parents. Thank you Angii and the teachers!”
“The best daycare we couldn't recommend it more highly. The teachers are so loving, fun and supportive. We love the constant updates and photos about what he gets up to during the week. Seeing how much fun he has and all the things he is learning we couldn't ask for anything better for our son. He has become such an independent, loving and social kid and a lot of it is to do with what he learns at this daycare. Reasonably priced and an excellent service.”
