What about social distancing?
We will encourage the children to play and learn separately but cannot guarantee social distancing of children within a class. We expect all adults on site to practise social distancing when dropping off and collecting their children. On narrow paths there are markings and a one way system to help with this. Please limit the number of adults coming onto our site as far as safely possible (i.e. one parent, not two). Access to the main office foyer is permitted only one family at a time. We will not be accepting cash payments. Please use telephone (01724 844216) and email (admin.crosbyprimary@northlincs.gov.uk) to contact us where possible.
