What locals say about GU2
“Guildford Grove Primary School is rated Outstanding by Ofsted. There is an active Community Association and lots of local groups to join. There are people living in Park Barn of all ages and nationalities thanks to the proximity of the University, Hospital and Research Park. Main transport links are good with the A3 north and south bound carriageways on the doorstep. There is a Tesco supermarket, good local shops and a great and very regular bus service into Guldford town centre. People here are very friendly. ”

Guildford Monday Rock Choir
Do you want to learn to sing near you? The local Guildford choir is run by vocal teacher Thomas George. Our choir is made up of people who never thought they would join a choir or would even sing for fun and that's the beauty of joining our choir. I don't think any of us expected to make the huge number of great friends we have along the way not just in our own choir but all the local Surrey branches of Rock Choir too! We sing in Guildford every week during term time. You can join the choir by going to rockchoir.com or you can also book a FREE singing taster session to try it beforehand. If you feel you're not ready to join a choir yet, why not check out our choir events page at rockchoir.com? There you can come along to see what we're all about - local people bringing the local Guildford community together through something as simple as learning to sing. Here is a quote about our choir - 'Rock Choir and the people in it have made me feel Happy, Energised, Accepted, Confident, Supported and Liked. It has also re-kindled my love of music and singing.' - Fe (Rock Choir member) Rock Choir is a winner of the Red Ribbon 'Big Heart' Award [https://rockchoir.com/awards-achievements/]. and holds 1 former and 2 current Guinness World Records. The choir is also credited with single handedly starting the contemporary choir movement.Read more
