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 Magic Sparks Nature Preschool, it is best to ask the centre directly how they apply 20 Hours ECE.

“I couldn’t speak more highly of Magic Spark Natures Preschool. My son attended the Cuba street centre then moved to Natures centre when it opened. He has been with Jas and Priyanka since he was 6months and they have always treated him like one of their own. All the teachers at the centre are amazing and it is like one big family. What I love about the centre is they make it fun to learn my son just loves his mat time all the amazing activities the teachers put together for them make everyday fun, exciting and different.”
“Our daughter has been attending Magic Sparks Nature preschool since it opened and prior to that she attending Magic sparks Cuba. Our experience from this has been nothing short of outstanding. The continuity of staff has aloud our daughter to thrive within this setting. She has had the same teachers since she was 11 months old. This preschool has an amazing setting with nature surrounding the school. The education is amazing and I have noticed such a growth within our daughter over the last year while attending. I would highly recommend this school to anyone who is looking for a place for their child.”
