Banner reads, "The school is open!!", at the entrance of a primary school as schoolchildren return to the classroom as part of Italy's COVID-19 regulations after the Christmas holidays, while older pupils continue their studies online, in Maleo, one of Lombardy's original 'red zone' towns January 7, 2021. Schoolteacher Toniolo has been documenting what life has been like for a small cluster of northern Italian towns since they were put on lockdown weeks before the rest of the country in February last year.
