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 Whanganui Central Baptist Kindergarten (CBK), it is best to ask the centre directly how they apply 20 Hours ECE.

“I was there for a Grey Power meeting. It is a FATASTIC Venue for all types of Functions. Thank you Wanganui Central Baptist Church for allowing us to use the lovely Space.”
“Was there for a u-skills graduation. Very spacious, highly recommend if you want to hire a hall for around 250”
“Trust a Baptist Church to have baptisms! Today was extremely special to see 6 people publically declare their faith in Jesus Christ including my nephew. It takes a great church to provide the environment for God to move and grow in people's lives, for people to see the need for moving in this great step. Youth from hard backgrounds, Christian upbringing, a world class rower. All testifying of God's real work in their lives and then being water baptised, dying and raising victorious over death from the water 💧. Thanks Wanganui Central Baptist.”
