| | |  Mark Williams to open school building (UPDATED)
The Bromsgrove Advertiser reports that Mark Williams (Arthur Weasley) will be opening the new North Bromsgrove High School building, in England, tomorrow. During his visit Mark will run a drama workshop. Quote:
The school's director of specialism, Steve Cowperthwaite, said: "Having Mark Williams with us on opening day is very exciting.
"He has achieved great things since his schooldays here and will be a wonderful source of inspiration for our students."
UPDATE: stumcd, who attends the school that Mark visited, sent us this report; Quote:
The day was set out so that for the first lesson the 6th formers had and assembly ran by Mark Williams. Then lessons 2 and 3 were 2 more assemblies for the lower school. Because I am in the jazz band and had to play music for the assemblies he came back stage and talked to us separately which was very cool. In the assemblies he talked about the new school, about his acting career and what it was like when he went to this school. Between then and the official opening he did a workshop with the 6th formers who took drama which they then presented at the opening. It was a comedy about Mark at school. There was also a slideshow of the history of the school. After the ceremony he gladly had pictures taken with pupils and signed autographs for pupils and teachers. It was a really good day.
Stuart will shortly be providing us with pictures.  | |

__________________ I gotta go back to the muggle world,
they're gonna try and tell me this wasn't, that none of this happened,

We spent time here. We made friends here. That's a part of us.
Cause Hogwarts is bigger than any of us, of any of it's founders,
and it's going to be around long after we're gone.
Maybe we'll see our kids come here one day.
That's the thing about Hogwarts.
No matter how long you're away from it, there's always a way back. | |

| So we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past.
