COVID-19/Corona Virus
We are proud to have a number of our parents who are keyworkers and school is currently open to support them in carrying on the fight against COVID-19. by providing childcare, where appropriate and absolutely essential. Any enquiry about this limited provision should be directed to keyworker@castleprimary.uk.
Whilst the NHS is on the very frontline, we are also grateful to others, for example supermarket workers, delivery drivers, refuse collectors, to name just a few. Thank you.
