Night school
The same idea as the open classroom, moved to the hour when a working adult can actually arrive.
Evening classes for adults whose days are already spoken for.
Why the evening
A classroom at ten in the morning is useless to someone who is at work then. The program moves the hour, not the standard. There is still a teacher, a classroom, and a way back in.
What is already true
The halls exist, and the hosts have agreed the evenings. What is not yet true is the wage. We will not print a start date until that is covered for a full term.
Who it is for
Adults who already know the building. The class is not a recruitment drive. It is an answer to a request that arrived from the people already using the hall.

Goals
- 01Open three evenings a week in two existing halls.
- 02Recruit teachers who can stay after their own work, and pay them for that evening.
- 03Keep the class small enough that a person who missed a fortnight can be brought back in.
Timeline
- 2025Asked for. Adults already using the weekly table asked for a class that did not require them to leave work at noon.
- 2026Teachers and lamps. The seed fund is gathering wages for the first term, and light reliable enough to read by.
- Next termA first register. Enrolment will be in person, in the hall, on a published evening. There will not be an online form.

The classrooms already exist. What is still being gathered is the evening: teachers who can stay after their own work, lamps, and a register that does not assume a person is free at noon.
How to help
Night school is not open yet. A gift now is a seed: it pays for the first term’s teachers. Write and we will confirm what has already been promised before you send anything.
