William Moseley Inspires Students

It’s stories like this that really show just how cool the actors are, from the Chronicles of Narnia. William Moseley is a true class act. I was witness to him speaking to one of the less fortunate folks on a street in New York. It really was a great display of his character as a person. This is just another example as Chronicles of Narnia star William Moseley backed a series of pioneering children’s workshops.

William, from Sheepscombe, who plays Peter Pevensie, sent a personal message to inspire and support six Tewkesbury School pupils on a Performing For Success pilot project.

The Gloucestershire County Council-backed scheme aims to motivate and help primary and secondary children by using drama, animation, team games and other activities to build their confidence, self-esteem, teamwork, speaking and listening skills and problem-solving.

The six-week, after-school course, run once a week at Tewkesbury Library, was supported by The Roses theatre, who ran two sessions based on anti-bullying and raising self-esteem, and animators Cordial AV, who helped youngsters create a selection of animations.

Organiser Emma Taylor said: “William was very enthusiastic because he struggled academically and was inspired by drama.

“He couldn’t be at our presentation evening but left a video message of inspiration and support.

“He named all the children, making their faces light up, and left signed pictures.
