Week Ending Friday 23rd January 2026 - Purple Poppies
This week week have been reading The Three Little Pigs. We read the story and used the story sack to retell the story ourselves.
We have also been working very hard on our gross and fine motor skills. Some activities have involved using scarves to make big movements and then transferring this onto paper to make our "Piggy Squiggles." To work on our fines motor skills, we used tweezers to pick the piggy tails out of the "pigsty" and match them by colour to the matching piggy's bottom.
Well done Purple Poppies!!

This week we have been learning about Birds. We are so lucky at Emmaville, we get to see lots of different birds in our little forest and surrounding trees. The children's knowledge of different birds has been brilliant and they have enjoyed learning even more about some of their favourites.
Some activities this week have been, making bird feeders, bird spotting with our very own binoculars, learning interesting facts about UK birds, learning the Nursery Rhyme, 2 Little Dickie Birds with our very own "Peter and Paul" and much more.
Well done Crawcrook you have superstars!

This week, we welcomed lots of new friends into nursery.
We were so pleased with how quickly they seem to be settling in, but also so proud of our existing children for showing them the ropes!
