One of the dolphin sculptures on Guernsey's new trail has been vandalised.
'Echo', which has been decorated by pupils at St Martin's Primary School, was found snapped off at the tail.
Headteacher Clare Giles says it's very sad for the children.
The damage, which is thought to have occurred on Liberation Day or during the early hours of 10 May, has been reported to Guernsey Police.
The GSPCA is asking for donations towards repairs.
Steve Byrne, GSPCA Manager, said: “The Dolphin Discovery Trail is a huge community event with 62 sponsors and 62 dolphins decorated around Guernsey and Herm which we have been delivering thanks to our team and volunteers from Artex this week.”
“This weekend we have been testing the treasure hunt app and completing the finishing touches but sadly this will now be slightly delayed as vandals have broken Echo the dolphin in two, which was decorated by St Martin's Primary School - who will be very upset on Monday when they arrive to school and the dolphin is not there as it is being repaired.”
Details of when the trail and treasure hunt app, in aid of Autism Guernsey and the GSPCA, will start will be published soon.
