About New Brighton Community Preschool & Nursery
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 New Brighton Community Preschool & Nursery, it is best to ask the centre directly how they apply 20 Hours ECE.

Parent Reviews
“Such a lovely, caring and respectful centre! The staff truly care about the tamariki and the opportunities for exploration through play are endless. My son couldn’t love school more!”
“Teachers are lovely, very welcoming. My daughter has been there since she was 5 months old, shes now 1, always comes home super happy. Pop her down to play as soon as we walk into the nursery and she doesn't even blink an eye when i leave. Definitely very comforting as a mum.”
