20 Hours ECE

The 20 Hours ECE scheme offers a saving for all parents of 3 and 4 year olds. In order for us to fully cover the quality of education and care being provided, we have had to build in a chargeable portion of each day, hence the reason for charging the weekly fee for 3 and 4 year olds who qualify for the 20 hours.

Please consider the following:

  • All 3 and 4 year olds must be enrolled for a minimum of 3 full days per week
  • We do not offer half/part days or sessional education care for these children
  • If you have any further queries regarding the 20 Hours Government policy, please ask

For more information on 20 Hours ECE please visit the Ministry of Education website.

Childcare subsidies

Parents may apply for a WINZ subsidy if they qualify for this. Find out from WINZ if you qualify for an ECE subsidy.

WINZ can pay all or a portion of your fees if you qualify. We will be happy to give you more information on your entitlements and how to apply for them.

Fees policy

  • This Fees Policy forms part of your Enrolment Form and Agreement.
  • All fees are inclusive of GST.
  • We prefer that fees are paid by automatic payment in advance every Friday for each week in advance. Fees are paid directly into the Centre's nominated bank account.
  • Enrolments are for a minimum of 3 days per week. We do not offer sessional or half day sessions.
  • Fees are payable for all holidays, sickness, absences and statutory holidays.
  • We offer a 10% discount to families with two or more children who attend on a full-time basis.
  • Should your child require attendance for more than 8 hours per day, the hourly fee will be charged on top of the set weekly fee.
  • Included in your fees: food for all ages except formula, nappies for all children under 3 years, and linen.
  • Not included in your fees: formula for babies.
  • Change of days booked. If you wish to change your child's enrolled days of attendance, you must fill out the appropriate forms and this request will be actioned at the commencement of the following month, subject to availability.
  • Where a child is absent for more than 2 weeks, they may be withdrawn from our register. Please notify the Centre Manager in advance if this might occur. We will endeavour to provide assistance where we can.
  • Fees are required to be paid in full for all absences, including absences longer than 2 weeks, in order to hold your child's place. Places cannot be held indefinitely and this will need to be negotiated with the Centre Manager.
  • Two weeks' notice is required if you wish to withdraw your child from the Centre. No refunds are given.
  • Late pick-up. Parents who are late in picking up their children will incur a late pick-up fee of $1 per minute. This must be paid directly to the supervising staff member on duty. Payments will be receipted and documented accordingly.
  • Fees must be paid on time. This is necessary for us to maintain a high quality service. Where fees remain unpaid for more than 2 weeks, we cannot guarantee a place for your child and it may need to be withdrawn, unless an alternative arrangement has been negotiated. Please do not hesitate to contact the Centre Manager as soon as possible if you cannot meet your obligations under this Fees Policy. We are more than happy to discuss your situation.
  • The Centre reserves the right to use debt collection services to recover costs should this be necessary.
