Councillor Rodwell spoke to a group of students about his life journey and emphasised the importance of having high aspirations and believing that anything is possible. The students asked lots of questions and were amazed by some of the work involved as leader of the Council. He then observed a Year 8 dance lesson and joined in with one of the groups&#8217; Bollywood dances much to the delight of the students. We hope the Councillor Rodwell enjoyed his visit to us and we look forward to welcoming him back soon.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.greatfieldsschool.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/048_BF_GREATFIELDS_1st_FEB_ABK-2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-5598\" src=\"https:\/\/www.greatfieldsschool.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/048_BF_GREATFIELDS_1st_FEB_ABK-2-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.greatfieldsschool.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/048_BF_GREATFIELDS_1st_FEB_ABK-2-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.greatfieldsschool.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/048_BF_GREATFIELDS_1st_FEB_ABK-2-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.greatfieldsschool.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/048_BF_GREATFIELDS_1st_FEB_ABK-2-1024x683.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.greatfieldsschool.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/030_BF_GREATFIELDS_1st_FEB_ABK-2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-5597\" src=\"https:\/\/www.greatfieldsschool.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/030_BF_GREATFIELDS_1st_FEB_ABK-2-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.greatfieldsschool.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/030_BF_GREATFIELDS_1st_FEB_ABK-2-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.greatfieldsschool.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/030_BF_GREATFIELDS_1st_FEB_ABK-2-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.greatfieldsschool.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/030_BF_GREATFIELDS_1st_FEB_ABK-2-1024x683.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.greatfieldsschool.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/025_BF_GREATFIELDS_1st_FEB_ABK-2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-5596\" src=\"https:\/\/www.greatfieldsschool.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/025_BF_GREATFIELDS_1st_FEB_ABK-2-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.greatfieldsschool.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/025_BF_GREATFIELDS_1st_FEB_ABK-2-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.greatfieldsschool.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/025_BF_GREATFIELDS_1st_FEB_ABK-2-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.greatfieldsschool.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/025_BF_GREATFIELDS_1st_FEB_ABK-2-1024x683.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We were honoured to receive a visit today from Darren Rodwell, the Leader of the Council.
