The general view seems to be that the typical school cane was about 8mm thick. Is this what would have been described as a “senior cane”? If so, what about the so-called “junior cane” – how thick was that usually, and what age groups would it have been typically used for?

Just curious, as I’m not old enough to have memories of actual canings at school.
