Education
Preschool – Playcentres Playcentres are Early Childhood Education Centres offering safe and secure learning environment for children from birth to 6 years. Playcentre is based on the philosophy of children learning through play, and parents as first educators. They are run as parent cooperatives and cater for children from birth to school age. Children can attend up to five sessions a week. Parents or caregivers of children under 2# years must attend with their children. There is a higher overall adult to child ratio than at other services. All playcentres are members of the New Zealand Playcentre Federation.

Preschool – Education and Care Centres Education and care centres can be run by the community or private owners, and provide full or part-time education and care. At least one of the teachers at an Education and care centre must be a registered teacher with a Diploma in Teaching (Early Childhood Education) or similar qualification. Depending on the centre, they may accept children from birth to school age, or children of specific ages. Some education and care services also have programmes based on a specific culture, or on different beliefs, such as Montessori or Rudolph Steiner centres. Casual services, such as those in gyms or shopping centres, where your child may stay for a short time only, are also regarded as education and care centres. Education and care centres usually charge fees, which vary depending on the age of the child, hours of attendance and other factors.

Kindergartens Kindergartens are similar to education and care centres except that all the teachers must be registered. All kindergartens are run by committees (that parents are encouraged to join) and report to local kindergarten associations. Most kindergartens offer services to children aged between two and a half and five years old. Mostly older children attend morning sessions five days a week, while younger children attend afternoon sessions three days a week. Some kindergartens are now open all day or have some sessions that are longer than others. Kindergartens usually ask for parents or caregivers to make a donation or pay a fee which may vary, depending on the age of the child, hours of attendance and other factors.
