Hydrangea Academy
The sound of laughter and scampering paws fill this space. In the garden, an older not-cat instructs a pair of kittens on how to properly weed the flowerbed. Another group of young cats pass you by, including a spectacled adult who pauses to greet you. "Oh! Hello! Were you here to interview for the teaching position? I need to get these little ones to class, but I'll be right with you!
Brightstone's all-inclusive school. Not-Cats of all ages come here to learn! During the morning, basic classes are held for the younger kittens. These cover topics such as reading, writing, geography, simple sciences and a general history of Brightstone and Not-Earth. In the afternoon, classes are held for adolescent not-cats. These cover more advanced levels of the kittenhood curriculum, as well as a life skills class to prepare them for adventuring and travel!
The principal of the academy, Rhubarb, keeps her office up on the second floor.

Hydrangea Academy also offers its building as a space for adult not-cats to have hobby/seminar classes in the evenings. Any resident of Brightstone can apply to teach or attend a class for free! Visitors from another village need to pay a small fee, but the notes are put right back into the school!
