St John's Church Watford
St John's Church of England Primary School
Our school, St John’s Primary, officially started in 2017 on the initiative and hard work of the then vicar Fr David Stevenson. The first school building was our small, historic parish hall on Estcourt Road.
Our school is special because we learn about God and the Bible.’
Mattie, Year 3
When our purpose-built school on Clarendon Road was ready in September 2019, we were able to move in. It is very dear to our hearts as having begun only six years ago we have watched it grow like anxious parents. It is now flourishing and the connection between school and church is very much part of our church life.
St John's Primary School is rooted in the Christian heritage of educating our young people and supporting families and the community. Our pupils are encouraged to express their thoughts and ideas, questioning the world around them while respecting the opinions of others. It teaches the National Curriculum in exciting and creative ways, always underpinned with an ethos of knowledge and truth, honesty and selflessness which will allow our children to flourish as lifelong learners and good citizens in our ever growing and evolving world.

Conversations in Jazz
Join us for a very special edition of Ilario Ferrari's 'Conversations in Jazz' providing a bumper afternoon of music and chat from a selection of Watford-based jazz artists with some very special guests.
The afternoon is hosted by Jazz FM presenter Ruth Fisher and Orphy Robinson MBE at St John's Church, presenting one-hour shows from David Gordon (piano) and Christian Garrick (violin) presented in association with 'Oxhey Sounds', Ilario Ferrari (piano/guitar/vocals) and Mari Songs (vocals) and Shri Sriram with his latest acclaimed solo project (electric-bass)
There will also be an opportunity to hear the emerging talent of local-pianist Micol Fusar and to hear a blended choir of children who have taken part in the Watford Jazz Junction's Jazz Train workshops across the last 18-months (including from Bushey Manor, Greenfields, Woodhall and St John's primary schools).
