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

Parent Reviews
“I moved here to Katikati from the Far North in April with my 2 tamariki enrolling both at Learning Adventures. My son has now moved on to Katikati Primary but my girl still attends and she absolutely loves it. Every morning she gets up excited and dropping her off is quick and easy. Love the Storypark updates to see how she is progressing aswell. Thank you to all the Kaiako and Staff.”
“My little boy loves it at Learning Adventures Katikati. He has been attending for 4 months now, in the baby room. Drop-off's always a breeze, he loves seeing his teachers every morning and I know they take great care of him. Also cool to see the Storypark photos/ updates of his learning and all the fun he has.”
