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 Learning Adventures Ashhurst, it is best to ask the centre directly how they apply 20 Hours ECE.

“My daughter has just started here and I am so pleased with this centre. The staff are wonderful and I feel like they already know my daughter so well. The Admin people are really helpful and prompt at replying to messages. The centre is clean and full of fun activities, with a great outdoor space. Both my daughter and I are very happy with this choice”

“We have been at this center for coming up two years. In the last 18 months the center has had a complete transformation. Under new management and teachers the center now is a wonderful environment for our growing kids. Focused learning, inclusion of family and recently outside the center learning for the older kids. It is so refreshing to have teachers who love to see the kids every day and are always informative for us parents at work or home. I'm so excited to see what 2023 brings for Learning Adventures Ashhurst. I'm sure nothing but more growth!”
