We arrived here a little later than expected due to being behind a propeller from a wind turbine! It did delay us slightly however, it was really interesting to see how they large they are up close and allowed us to enjoy the amazing views around us. On arrival, we were shown around our new home and started to unpack our things. Everything is now unpacked and our beds made for the night. Soon after, we split into our groups that we will be spending our days in and got all our equipment. In our free time, some played football, went on the tree swing or went to play pool. After a hearty dinner of fish and chips or pizza, we made our way on a night walk along a local footpath. It led us through thick wooded areas, over streams and to amazing views where we stood in completely still and listened to the serene silence! We're all having a great time! Here are some pictures from today... ### Plas 2019 Day 1 [ ![](https://files.schudio.com/grove-vale-primary-school/imagecache/480x480c/gallery/28658/IMG_0627.jpg) ](https://files.schudio.com/grove-vale-primary-school/images/gallery/28658/IMG_0627.jpg) [ ![](https://files.schudio.com/grove-vale-primary-school/imagecache/480x480c/gallery/28658/IMG_0628.jpg) ](https://files.schudio.com/grove-vale-primary-school/images/gallery/28658/IMG_0628.jpg) [ ![](https://files.schudio.com/grove-vale-primary-school/imagecache/480x480c/gallery/28658/IMG_0626.jpg) ](https://files.schudio.com/grove-vale-primary-school/images/gallery/28658/IMG_0626.jpg) [ ![](https://files.schudio.com/grove-vale-primary-school/imagecache/480x480c/gallery/28658/IMG_0625.jpg) ](https://files.schudio.com/grove-vale-primary-school/images/gallery/28658/IMG_0625.jpg) [ ![](https://files.schudio.com/grove-vale-primary-school/imagecache/480x480c/gallery/28658/IMG_0624.jpg) ](https://files.schudio.com/grove-vale-primary-school/images/gallery/28658/IMG_0624.jpg) [ ![](https://files.schudio.com/grove-vale-primary-school/imagecache/480x480c/gallery/28658/IMG_0623.jpg) ](https://files.schudio.com/grove-vale-primary-school/images/gallery/28658/IMG_0623.jpg) [ ![](https://files.schudio.com/grove-vale-primary-school/imagecache/480x480c/gallery/28658/IMG_0622.jpg) ](https://files.schudio.com/grove-vale-primary-school/images/gallery/28658/IMG_0622.jpg) [ ![](https://files.schudio.com/grove-vale-primary-school/imagecache/480x480c/gallery/28658/IMG_0621.jpg) ](https://files.schudio.com/grove-vale-primary-school/images/gallery/28658/IMG_0621.jpg) [ ![](https://files.schudio.com/grove-vale-primary-school/imagecache/480x480c/gallery/28658/IMG_0620.jpg) ](https://files.schudio.com/grove-vale-primary-school/images/gallery/28658/IMG_0620.jpg) [ ![](https://files.schudio.com/grove-vale-primary-school/imagecache/480x480c/gallery/28658/IMG_0618.jpg) ](https://files.schudio.com/grove-vale-primary-school/images/gallery/28658/IMG_0618.jpg) [ ![](https://files.schudio.com/grove-vale-primary-school/imagecache/480x480c/gallery/28658/IMG_0615.jpg) ](https://files.schudio.com/grove-vale-primary-school/images/gallery/28658/IMG_0615.jpg) [ ![](https://files.schudio.com/grove-vale-primary-school/imagecache/480x480c/gallery/28658/IMG_0609.jpg) ](https://files.schudio.com/grove-vale-primary-school/images/gallery/28658/IMG_0609.jpg) [ A message from the Queen... ](https://www.grovevale.co.uk/blog/2019-02-06-14-52-33-a-message-from-the-queen) [ Plas Gwynant: Day 2 ](https://www.grovevale.co.uk/blog/2019-06-11-20-34-51-plas-gwynant-day-2) ### [Latest News](https://www.grovevale.co.uk/news) [![Image of Nursery and Reception Open Day 5th November 2026](https://files.schudio.com/grove-vale-primary-school/imagecache/150x150c/news/logo-2.png)](https://www.grovevale.co.uk/news/2026-06-11-nursery-and-reception-open-day-5th-november-2026) #### [Nursery and Reception Open Day 5th November 2026](https://www.grovevale.co.uk/news/2026-06-11-nursery-and-reception-open-day-5th-november-2026) 11 June 2026 [![Image of September 2026 Starters](https://files.schudio.com/grove-vale-primary-school/imagecache/150x150c/news/logo-2.png)](https://www.grovevale.co.uk/news/2026-04-18-september-2026-starters) #### [September 2026 Starters](https://www.grovevale.co.uk/news/2026-04-18-september-2026-starters) 18 April 2026 [![Image of Partnerships With UNICEF ](https://files.schudio.com/grove-vale-primary-school/imagecache/150x150c/news/unicef.jpg)](https://www.grovevale.co.uk/news/2024-09-19-partnerships-with-unicef) #### [Partnerships With UNICEF ](https://www.grovevale.co.uk/news/2024-09-19-partnerships-with-unicef) 19 September 2024 ### Contact Us **Grove Vale Primary School** Monksfield Avenue Great Barr Birmingham B43 6AL Tel: 01213574319 - [CEOP](http://www.ceop.police.uk/) - [Think You Know](http://www.thinkuknow.co.uk/) - [Department for Education](https://www.gov.uk/government/organisations/department-for-education) - [Action for Children](http://www.actionforchildren.org.uk/) © Copyright 2017–2026 Grove Vale Primary School School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](https://www.grovevale.co.uk/img/logo/light.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/)
