A big thank you to all schools involved: @StCathsofSiena @YorkeMead Lanchester Primary School, Rickmansworth Park, The Grove Academy, and Arnett Hills #PLPrimaryStars @PLCommunities @WatfordFC | #WatfordFC

We recently held a fantastic Pupil Voice session as part of our Premier League Primary Stars programme at St Mary’s Primary Northchurch. Listening to our pupils is key to ensuring we continue to deliver high-quality sessions that meet their needs and interests. Children shared their thoughts through written feedback, group discussions with coaches, and fun physical activities designed to capture their ideas. It was great to hear such thoughtful and creative ideas – we’re excited to build these into future sessions! @PLCommunities #PLprimarystars @WatfordFC #watfordfc

To celebrate Children’s Mental Health Week 2026, our Premier League Primary Stars pupils were challenged to design a football stadium where every child could feel happy, safe, included and proud to belong. After reviewing hundreds of brilliant entries, our Health & Wellbeing team selected Dev (Year 4) as the winner! The other photos showcase some of our favourite designs from partner schools 💛 Well done Dev, and to everyone else who entered! @PLCommunities #PremierLeaguePrimaryStars #ChildrensMentalHealthWeek

Last week, pupils engaged in Premier League Primary Stars With Pride Workshops, where they thought about different positive relationships, inclusive behaviour and allyship. See some of their great work below! @PLcommunities #PLprimarystars #withpride @WatfordFC | #Watfordfc

1 in 10 children do not own a book of their own, meaning they could miss out on the joy and power of reading.

💛 A huge thank you to Watford FC Women’s Anna Filbey and members of the Watford FC Men’s Academy for joining our Premier League Primary Stars PE session at Meryfield Primary last week! ⚽ It was an incredible afternoon full of fun, teamwork, and inspiration – and the pupils absolutely loved the chance to learn from their heroes both on and off the pitch. 🌟 On the visit, Anna said: “You can really see how much it means to the kids when they get to meet and work with us as players ... But for me, it’s just as inspiring; seeing their energy and enthusiasm reminds me why I love what I do and how lucky I am to help inspire this next generation.” 💬 Moments like these remind us just how powerful sport can be in bringing people together and inspiring future generations. 🙌 @WatfordFCWomen | @WatfordFCAcad @PLCommunities
