    An Australian school has covered a statue from view because of its "potentially suggestive" depiction of a saint handing a loaf of bread to a boy.
    The Catholic school in Adelaide apologised on Wednesday for the statue, which was completed recently.
    The sculpture, portraying St Martin de Porres, was widely criticised after images of it were posted online.
    The unfortunate position of the loaf of bread held by the saint led to some misreading the scene.
    Blackfriars Priory School said it had commissioned a new sculptor to "substantially alter" the design.
