Our programmes

One school, every stage of the journey

Children grow with us — from their first playgroup to a confident, primary-ready graduate.

Playgroups→Pre-Nursery→Nursery→Kindergarten→Primary school
Adult-accompanied

Playgroups

A gentle first step into learning together. Circle time, sensory discovery and hands-on play — a joyful way to bond while your little one explores. Toddler Playgroup runs at both centres, and Messy Play runs at Desa ParkCity. No term commitment needed.

18 months – 2 years

Pre-Nursery

A gentle mix of play and early learning, with lunch included. Outdoor time, circle time and first phonics build independence and confidence — your child’s first steps away from your side, in caring hands.

3 – 6 years

Nursery & Kindergarten

Play with purpose. Days blend outdoor time, circle time, phonics and discovery stations — building the reading, thinking and social skills that make a child ready for primary school. Hours and options vary by centre; see each fees page.

From our families

Why families stay

At Lighthouse, the hardest part of the school day is convincing a child to go home.

“It’s been just over a year and we see so much improvement in our child’s growth — from multilingual speech, to music, and being able to socialize with peers her age. We highly recommend Lighthouse Preschool for multilingual families!”

Amelia C · Parent

“Her Mandarin & BM has improved so much... she loves it so much at Lighthouse that it’s hard for her to leave every day.”

Jennifer Monteiro · Grandparent

“I have seen my child blossom into a confident and curious learner, eager to explore the world around her.”

Amit & Karishma · Nursery 2 Parents

“A standout moment was the recent sports day, which featured a real go-kart event — the teachers even crafted unique medals for all participants.”

Teresa Chua · Parent

Questions parents ask us

What ages do you take?

Our preschool programmes welcome children from 18 months to 6 years old. Adult-accompanied playgroups are open to younger siblings too — Toddler Playgroup at Ara Damansara is for ages 6 months to 3 years.

Which languages do children learn in?

English, Mandarin and Bahasa Malaysia — all three, woven into everyday play, songs, stories and routines rather than taught as separate drills. We are a trilingual school: children hear and use all three languages every day.

What is the learning approach?

Learning is play-powered. Our approach is inspired by the EYFS Framework and led by a founder with 26 years of early-years teaching experience. Days blend outdoor time, circle time, phonics and hands-on discovery, with social-emotional learning at the centre — so children are confident, independent and ready for primary school.

Is lunch included?

Yes. Meals are provided, and lunch is included in our preschool programme fees.

Can I visit before we decide?

Please do. A tour lets you meet our teachers and see the classes from outside. Tours at Ara Damansara run Monday to Friday, 9:30am – 2pm. Tours at Desa ParkCity run on Tuesdays and Thursdays, 9:30am – 11:30am. Message us on WhatsApp and we will confirm a time.

What is the Trial Month?

You can start with a Trial Month, with no lock-in, to see how your child settles before committing. Message us on WhatsApp for how it works at your centre.

Where can I see the fees?

Fees depend on your child’s age and programme. Message us on WhatsApp and we will send you the fees for your centre.

Which centre should we choose?

Both centres share the same warm, small-school approach and the same enquiry line. Choose whichever is easier for your family’s daily routine — or message us and we will help you decide.
