Workers
Education Association
The
Workers Education Association (usually referred to as the WEA) is a voluntary
organisation which celebrated it's centenary last year. It was originally set up to enable the people
who were unable to complete their education and wished to better themselves in
their spare time. For example may people 100 years ago went to work at an
early age instead of completing their education.
During
the many years the students needs have changed somewhat so now the WEA welcomes
all adult learners and aims to support them in achieving their personal
goals. We aim to create a friendly and supportive environment for all our
learners. There are other branches throughout Lincolnshire offering a
further choice of courses and a brochure of all available courses can be obtained
from the Secretary. Many students that
have joined the Bardney branch over the years have commented on the laid back
friendly atmosphere during the course, this is how we like to think of
ourselves. There is no exam at the end of course to check what you have
learned, you can take away as much of a little from the course as you choose.
The
Bardney branch is always open the suggestions of new course ideas and our
committee considers a wide range each time the decision of the forthcoming
courses is made.
The courses planned for the coming year have been
arranged and we would be pleased to see you in attendance.
All courses are held at Bardney Primary School on a
Thursday evening from 7.30p.m. - 9.00p.m. unless
otherwise stated below.
For further details of course fees starting times, etc please Phone Diana Lee Branch secretary on 01526 398186 or e-mail Diana.chris@tiscali.co.uk
