KG stands for Kindergarten. KG-1 is the first year of kindergarten for children aged 4 to 5. KG-2 is the second year for children aged 5 to 6. Together they form the Early Years Foundation Stage — the most important period for building the skills, habits, and love of learning that your child will carry through their entire school life.
Many Pakistani families living in the Gulf hesitate to spend SAR 20,000 to SAR 40,000 per year on an international kindergarten when high quality online KG schooling delivers the same educational outcomes at a much more affordable cost.
• Your child stays connected to Pakistani culture, Urdu language, and Islamic values from day one.
• Classes scheduled in Gulf-friendly timings — morning and evening sessions available.
• Your child learns alongside other Pakistani children, creating a familiar and comfortable environment.
• Parents can monitor every class and stay closely involved in their child's learning.
KG-1 at Lumina follows the British Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) curriculum combined with Pakistani cultural and Islamic values:
• Literacy — Alphabet, phonics, pre-reading skills, and vocabulary in English and Urdu.
• Numeracy — Counting 1-20, number recognition, basic shapes, and early number sense through games.
• Urdu Language — Compulsory subject taught by native Urdu-speaking teachers.
• Islamic Studies — Basic duas, names of Allah, and simple stories from Islamic history.
• Social Development — Interacting with others, sharing, taking turns, and building confidence.

KG-2 builds on KG-1 and prepares your child fully for Grade 1:
