We have all unpacked and have explored the grounds before a lovely lunch. During the afternoon, we tested our team skills with team building activities followed by fish/vegetarian fingers and chips. We have so far spent most our time exploring our new surroundings and even got to use our torches when we went for a night walk with the teachers in the dark. After this, we enjoyed some delicious hot chocolate and by then it was time for bed! We're all looking forward to a fun-filled day tomorrow! ## Day 2 - Tuesday 24th September Another amazing day despite the rainy weather! We've all experienced different activities today. We used our map reading skills to navigate around the local village and we even got to make our own apple juice from start to finish! We picked the apples from trees located in the grounds of Edgmond Hall and crushed them before pressing and then bottling it up. We even got to design our own bottle labels! Tonight we enjoyed sausage and mash and are just about to get started with games night. Everyone is already excited about what tomorrow has in store for us! ![](https://www.grovevale.co.uk/images/blog/Edgmond/6fdb646b-d814-4ef0-a8f1-f747df0b9f58.JPG) ![](https://www.grovevale.co.uk/images/blog/Edgmond/7cd9f2a4-6d5b-427d-b71b-729f635a010b.JPG) ![](https://www.grovevale.co.uk/images/blog/Edgmond/d5fe8b7c-38d8-4f89-95aa-356cb38475a6(1).JPG) ![](https://www.grovevale.co.uk/images/blog/Edgmond/d9ed26b6-2a65-4b4d-82a3-5787379709b9(1).JPG) [ Plas Gwynant : Day 3 ](https://www.grovevale.co.uk/blog/2019-06-12-20-38-19-plas-gwynant-day-3) [ Edgmond Update 2019 - Day 3 and 4 ](https://www.grovevale.co.uk/blog/2019-09-26-19-26-51-edgmond-update-2019-day-3-and-4) ### [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/)
