About Seven Stars Kindergarten
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 Seven Stars Kindergarten, it is best to ask the centre directly how they apply 20 Hours ECE.

Parent Reviews
“Seven Stars Kindergarten has been so much more than just a childcare centre – it has truly been my son’s second home. From the very beginning, the teachers welcomed him with warmth, patience, and genuine care, making his transition into this new environment seamless. Coming from India to New Zealand, we were naturally anxious about how our son would adapt and feel a sense of belonging. Seven Stars gave him that sense of home away from home. The nurturing environment, joyful approach to learning, and cultural grounding helped him grow in confidence, kindness, and curiosity. Falu, Val, Janine, Jana, and Carmen have been like mothers to him – offering hugs, encouragement, and personal care that went far beyond teaching. They have not only guided his learning journey but also supported his emotional growth in the most beautiful ways. Our son speaks about his teachers and friends every day with love and affection. Seven Stars will always hold a special place in our hearts for the foundation, values, and happiness it has given him. We are truly grateful. #EarlyChildhoodEducation #EarlyLearning #JoyOfLearning #KiwiParents #KindergartenNZ”

“We have loved our daughter attending Seven Stars kindy. The teachers and team have become a part of our extended family and we can see how they genuinely love and care for her. A wonderful place to send your children for love, nurturing, teaching and nature play.”
“We did a late enrolment for our 3yr old daughter, so we thought we will be put on a long wait list. The staff and teachers were so welcoming, the enrolment process was simple and our daughter got a place straight away. For someone who had never experienced daycare she fit in well and fell in love with the teachers and the environment. If you are near Massey and looking for a place for your child, I highly recommend Seven Stars Kindergarten.”
