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 Rangiora High School Nursery School, it is best to ask the centre directly how they apply 20 Hours ECE.

Parent Reviews
“The most amazing preschool you could want your child to attend! The teachers are fantastic and so open, honest and easy to talk to. The environment is amazing and there are so many opportunities for the children to play, be children and have fun all while being guided and supported by the amazing teachers. My boy absolutely loves attending and we will miss everyone once he heads off to school.”
“Rangiora Nursery School has been such an amazing place for my children to learn and grow. The staff are warm and welcoming, the environment is ideal for busy children and I love the learning through play philosophy. I have recommended Rangiora Nursery School to so many friends and families now and they to have no regrets sending their children as well.”
“Nursery school is the best preschool in Rangiora! The outdoor space is amazing and massive! Children should be able to roam and play in wide open spaces, with real grass! The staff are like family. Both of my girls have either been to or still at nursery school and handing my daughter over in the morning is just like leaving her with my mum. My eldest loves coming back to see her teachers too. They leave a lasting impression on your heart ❤️”
“Awesome teachers, huge outdoor area, in all lovely environment. Both my children always felt happy and at home 😊”
“My son Archer loves it here. Since covid this preschool has been the best thing for my youngest. The teachers are amazing and responsive to the children and you can just see it through the way the kids interact with the teachers. There's always lots of different activities available for the children to foster their inquisitive minds. Can't speak highly enough! Just fantastic!”
