About us
Welcome To The Little Lighthouse
The Little Lighthouse believes that every child deserves more than just academic readiness — besides a strong foundation for primary school, a child will have a heart full of good moral values, confidence, and 21st century life-skills – Critical Thinking, Creativity, Communication and Collaboration.
For over 20 years, we've been shaping little lives through purposeful learning, character building, and joyful discovery because education is not just what we teach them, but who they become.
