About Te Kōhanga Reo
Te Kōhanga Reo centres are Māori immersion environments committed to the revitalisation of te reo Māori, with learning led by whānau and grounded in kaupapa Māori. They cater to families who want their tamariki fully immersed in Māori language and cultural practices, fostering strong identity, confidence, and intergenerational language transmission.
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 Te Kōhanga Reo o Whatawhata, it is best to ask the centre directly how they apply 20 Hours ECE.
