I am delighted to welcome you to the website of the Our School Federation.  Our federation comprises of three vibrant, creative and supportive schools where adults and children learn together. They are:

• Blackawton Community Primary School
• East Allington Community Primary School
• Stoke Fleming Community Primary School

Our schools are all situated within a six mile radius of each other on the beautiful South Devon coast - an enviable environment within which to learn.

The schools within our federation have long and proud histories of serving their three rural communities and each has its own unique identity.  Now working together as one organisation, with one Governing Body and a Leadership Team, we are best placed to offer our children the highest possible standard of 21st Century teaching and learning. 

Our federation prides itself on providing a friendly, caring, family environment within which children can flourish.  We seek to stimulate the love of learning in our children so that they want to learn for themselves and achieve to the very best of their abilities.   Every child is valued as an individual and encouraged to find their best-selves within a setting where they are happy, well cared for and, most importantly, where they care for each other.

I look forward to welcoming you to our federation.  Our children are our best ambassadors.  Come and meet them!

Earlier this week Dartmouth Leisure Centre hosted a Netball Tournament and Stoke Fleming took two teams to compete, and achieved amazing results! 

The event was organised br Mr Clements from Dartmouth Academy with specialist support from sporty Year Eleven Students; the students led the warm ups and umpired the matches; they were enthusiastic and fair.

Ancient Greek DT, art and music.

Class 3 absolutely loved our topic from last term! So much so, we decided to share some of our work with you!

The children have created some beautiful artwork, based on Ancient Greek fish plates which can be seen below. They used images which they sourced from the internet to help them design their plates. After they designed their plates. they careful drew over the top in black waterproof pen, before paining in watercolour.

On a misty morning in March all the year 6s from Blackawton, East Allington and Stoke Fleming  met at the Raleigh estate for a day of adventure challenges.  

The children in Class 1 have loved programming the lovable Beebots over the past few weeks.  We soon worked out how to make these toys move backwards, forwards, left and right and we enjoyed sending them on missions to find our friends and objects.  The Beebots have travelled through and under a variety of obstacles to reach their final destination.  We also made maps for the Beebots to travel on.  However, without a shadow of a doubt, our favourite activity was making up ‘synchronised’ dance routines.  We hope you enjoy watching our robots dance!<

East Allington’s first football match against Kingswear…

East Allington got off to a great start as Scott managed to strike through the defence and curl it past the keeper. Kingswear did not give up and made it past the East Allington defence but did not manage to get the ball round the superb keeper, James. The ball was soon passed out to Jude and the battle for position began! Strong defence was delivered by East Allington with Milo (captain) in centre, Tom in wing and Ben left wing.

Kingsbridge Community College was the venue for the penultimate Our-School Federation Maths Group workshop.

Mrs Jacky Walker led a fascinating session which involved the children entering ‘SpiderWorld’ where spider mathematicians meet to discuss the wonders of the base eight number system! The group quickly picked up the system and were not only able to calculate using base eight but were also able to explain how to convert ‘spider’ numbers (base eight) into ‘people’ numbers (base ten.)

The RNLI have sent Stoke Fleming School a huge 'Thank you' - and this wonderful picture!

Our 'SOS' - Sporty Or Stylish Day - raised enough money to buy new life jackets for the crew men to wear.  A fantastic outcome - many many thanks to everyone who dressed up and contributed.

A fashion show arranged by the Foundation Stage Unit of East Allington Primary provided a great learning experience for the younger children aged from two years to five years. During the day the children pouted and strutted their way down a pretend catwalk using role play clothing. They also made nibbles for the evening Fashion Show, and made a poster to show off the Wendy House they are raising money for.
