SOLDIERS’ ERECTION GRACES PLAYGROUND
Cheetingham CE Primary School has been given a unusual new addition thanks to soldiers from Froghill Barracks.
The squaddies, from 2nd Squadron, Royal Engineers, spent two weeks in the school playground building a ten-foot-high statue of a sightless man, complete with white stick.
Over the past three years, headteacher Arnold Plumm has built up a particularly good relationship with the soldiers, which led to their offer to do the job.
"We are extremely grateful for their kindness," he said.
"At first the lads were a little bemused when they learned of the subject matter for their work," he added.
“But when they learned that the statue’s purpose was to graphically depict the evils of masturbation, they were only too happy to lend a hand.”
