Lyttelton artist to sculpt Richie McCaw Lyttelton sculptor Mark Whyte has been commissioned to craft a bronze statue of former All Black captain Richie McCaw which will stand in McCaw’s home town of Kurow By Noah Graham MARK WHYTE has restored Gothic buildings, sculpted war heroes and created a bronze sled dog – now he will add an All Black captain to his list. The Lyttelton sculptor has been commissioned by the Kurow Museum Committee to craft a bronze statue of one of the greatest All Black captains, Richie McCaw. Mr Whyte said the statue will be about 2m tall and will stand in Kurow – McCaw’s home town. He is looking forward to meeting McCaw in the next few months to realise McCaw’s character, which will help him create a clay casing for the statue, Mr Whyte said. Mr Whyte has crafted an assortment of statues throughout New Zealand and has work featured in London and Sydney. However, his most notable work in Canterbury is the statue of double Victoria Cross recipient

Charles Upham at Amberley. He said he is used to sculpting war heroes but it will be a similar process crafting the McCaw statue and the challenge will come from making it as accurate as possible. “I’m meticulous. I do my utmost to get the true character of a person.” Mr Whyte said he did not want to create a sculpture that would reflect anything other than a real portrayal of McCaw. However, Mr Whyte said as an avid rugby fan, McCaw was one of the best role models anyone could have. •Turn to page 5

FROM THE EDITOR’S DESK Rakaia has a fish – Kurow will have a McCaw. He is one of the biggest names in rugby history and now a Lyttelton sculptor has been tasked with creating a bronze replica of the big man (front page). Mark Whyte will craft a 2m sculpture of former All Black captain and Crusader Richie McCaw which will stand in the Kurow – McCaw’s home town, seems fair. Interesting article by Bridget Rutherford over on page 3. It turns out that several intersections in a township need to be upgraded because they are not up to standard – but because it is going to cost so much and the city council can’t afford to pay for it all in one hit, it is asking residents which should be done first.

News In Brief

Upgrade for Akaroa intersections By Bridget Rutherford SEVEN AKAROA intersections need to be upgraded after a review found they were not up to standard – but due to the cost, the improvements will be made over time. A recent review of the township’s accessibility and pedestrian facilities showed there were seven intersections that did not comply with the New Zealand Transport Agency’s guidelines. The majority of the safety issues related to there being no tactile paving, which are textured yellow surfaces that aid pedestrians who are visually impaired. It is proposed that all seven intersections would now have them installed. The city council says if it were to address all the non-compliant facilities at once, it would be “very costly”. Because of that, it aimed to upgrade them over time. Some car parking would have to be removed to make way for no stopping lines. It is proposed the intersection of Rue Lavaud and Rue Viard will have a landscaped kerb built to narrow the crossing distance and improve visibility. The current give way control

HEAT PUMP FOR HALL Te Mata Hapuku Community Hall in Birdlings Flat will be one step closer to staying warm through the winter after receiving a grant. The Banks Peninsula Community Board approved a grant of $2000 towards a heat pump for the centre. The building has finished with an opening ceremony planned for June 23

CHANGES: An artist’s impression of what the proposed line marking, and tactile paving would look like at the intersection of Rue Lavaud and Rue Brittan.

would be replaced with a stop sign. Where Rue Lavaud and Rue Brittan meet, there would be a kerb cut down, and lines would be painted to show the difference between the road and footpath. The Rue Lavaud and Rue Croix intersection would also get a painted line edge. So would Rue Lavaud and Rue Balguerie in the interim, but more investigation will be done

to see how to further improve it. The Beach Rd and Rue Jolie intersection would get tactile pavers, while Beach Rd’s intersection with Church St would see a kerb reduction and a painted edge line. The pedestrian crossing on Rue Jolie will get tactile paving and no stopping lines painted. The city council says the upgrades would support Akaroa becoming more accessible and safer.

RESERVE PLAN A draft landscape plan for Governors Bay Reserve is expected to be presented to the public next month. The plan for Governors Bay Reserve was shown to the Banks Peninsula Community Board for feedback prior to public consultation. The proposed landscape plan will be publicly available during consultation from May 8 to May 29. The community board will then consider whether to approve it in July. Construction is planned for late this year.

Public consultation on the proposed changes closes on May 10, and after the feedback is reviewed, a decision would be made at a Banks Peninsula Community Board meeting. It is hoped work would begin in either June or July.

TRAFFIC ISLAND GO-AHEAD A traffic island will be installed on Ferry Rd at the intersection of Charlesworth St. The LinwoodCentral-Heathcote Community Board has approved the crossing to go in place to improve safety for pedestrians and make it easier to cross the road.

HERITAGE: Stoddart Cottage Trust member John Riminton cut the ribbon to open the cottage.

Historic cottage back in business By Caitlin Miles THE OLDEST building in Diamond Harbour – Stoddart Cottage has officially reopened. The cottage was closed for repairs and restoration work from the February 22, 2011, earthquake but it was officially opened by the Stoddart Cottage Trust last week. The ribbon was cut on the heritage-listed building by trust member John Riminton. The cottage, situated just above the Diamond Harbour Domain, received stabilisation work while funding was gathered for more extensive repairs. The building was closed in April last year to begin the work. The city council spend $444,000 on the project. Trust chairwoman Paula Smith said it was sad having it closed for the year while the works were completed but it is nice to have it reopened for the community’s benefit. Banks Peninsula councillor and Deputy Mayor Andrew Turner said while it was a small cottage it has “a big story to tell.” The cottage was built by Mark

POPULAR: The opening was well attended.

Stoddart, an early settler in the area in 1861. He lived there with his family until 1877. One of his daughters, Margaret Stoddart became a well-known New Zealand painter, in 1913 she painted Old Cottage, Diamond Harbour, in honour of the house she grew up in. Repairs to cracks in the walls, ceilings and floors were carried out along with repairs to cracks and loose slates in the veranda roof. Additional water tightening was done to the corrugated iron roof, repairing weatherboards and repainting the exterior of the cottage was also carried out.

The three chimneys had to be deconstructed and rebuilt around structural steel as well. Now the repairs have been finished Ms Smith said she hopes it will encourage people to come from the city to enjoy the harbour. “It’s nice to just sit on the veranda or relax in the cottage, we hope more people come to see it,” she said. Part of the cottage is a gallery of work and the remainder of the cottage is used as a space for the community. •Watch the video at www. star.kiwi

Governors Bay could pilot speed reduction measures

By Julia Evans GOVERNORS BAY could be a used as a pilot to launch speed reduction methods around the rest of the peninsula. Drivers struggle to see smaller settlements ahead of them due to thick, overgrown trees and a lack of bold signage. As a result, vehicles speed through the settlements, according to the Governors Bay Road Safety Working Group. Members Rosie Belton and Robin Anderson made a deputation to the Banks Peninsula Community Board on ways to make Governors Bay Rd safer for residents. The board is looking at using ideas from the deputation as a starting point to address similar issues across the ward. The main issue the working group has is that it is very hard to tell the difference between open road and settlements. “It doesn’t look like you’re coming into a community, it’s often hard to tell because there’s no defined difference,” Mrs Belton said. At the board meeting, the group proposed improving signage at settlement boundaries, another set of signs to reinforce the speed limit, 50km/h road markings and speed activated signs to be moved

throughout the peninsula. “The signage just needs to be more noticeable,” Mrs Belton said. The working group also suggested lowering entry speeds into settlements from 100km/h down to 70km/h. Mrs Belton has been campaigning for lower speed limits and safer roads in the area for more than a year.

The working group was happy with the outcome of the meeting. “The (board members) were very responsive. We came away feeling they were definitely going to action something,” Mr Anderson said. City council staff estimate making the suggested changes – excluding a reduction in the speed limits – may cost about $22,000.

Our People

Wesley Mauafu

Passion for helping Pasifika community Sumner rugby centre Wesley Mauafu is passionate about helping Pasifika young people, whether it’s fighting high suicide rates or inspiring them to have a voice in politics. Last week he was invited to Parliament to receive a New Zealand Youth Award for his work. He spoke to Gabrielle Stuart Why is the issue of suicide so important to you personally? It started four years ago, when I did my first suicide prevention training. I went as a fresh-faced young guy, and to be honest, I was so oblivious to the horrific statistics of my own Pasifika young people. They have so much potential and so much to give to the community as a whole, so when I found out we were perishing and struggling with our well-being it hit home a lot. From that day, every time I have seen a programme or initiative aimed at well-being, I am always keen to put my hand up and say yes, let’s do this. Our group, PYLET, is the council for

LEADER: Wesley Mauafu chaired the first meeting of PULSE – Pasifika United to Lead Suicide Prevention Education – last year.

Pacific Youth Leadership and Transformation. Through this, we are seriously saving Pasifika young people’s lives. That’s the motivation for me. Do you approach things dif-

ferently when you’re working specifically with Pasifika youth? I definitely think we do. It’s little things like understanding our values. We’re brought up in our family environment with

fa’aaloalo, which is the Samoan word for respect, and tautua, which means service. So service comes into the community work that we do, and respect means respecting our elders.

Understanding our cultural values helps us work better with Pasifika youth. The Pasifika community in Christchurch is quite tight-knit, right? Is that a strength, when you’re fighting something like suicide? Well, we originally held three suicide prevention workshops and something we found was, yes, we do have a very strong community, but within Pacific cultures there are also a lot of stigmas we had to try to get rid of before we could talk about the actual issues. They were things like we should sweep it under the rug, because if we talk to young people about suicide it might plant the seed of suicide in their mind. We also have to bring down the stigma that you should feel ashamed if someone in your family has taken their own life. We need to communicate with our young people and our elders that it’s okay to talk about it and there is no shame in it, because we are all going through hard times. The next question is, how do you talk to people about it? That’s what we’re trying now to impart to our Pasifika community.

and battling suicide earns youth award That must be particularly important since the earthquakes? Definitely. We’re over-represented when it comes to things like mental health problems and depression. A lot of our Pasifika young people and community live on the east side, and a lot of us in the red zone felt we were treated unfairly – not myself personally, but it’s something I hear a lot. It took a long time for the Canterbury rebuild to make its way to the east side, for our roads to be fixed, for our houses to be fixed. The feeling was, does our city really care about us, when it looked like the more well-off on the other side of the city were being taken care of first. So what was the experience at Parliament like? It was fantastic. We met with National MP Nuk Korako and went to the gallery in Parliament to watch David Cunliffe’s valedictory speech, which was awesome. It was actually my second time going to Parliament, but the first time going with my mum and my sister, which was fantastic to do. The best thing was that child-like feeling, when I looked at my mum and thought, yes, my mum thinks I’m cool. In terms of the community work I do, I guess my

friends and family know what I do, but I don’t really talk in depth about it. For my family, the only time they really hear what I do is when I get an award, so it’s pretty special. And I’m a ‘mumma’s boy’, so I just think if my mum thinks I’m cool, I’m doing something right in my life. If it was your second time at Parliament, when was the first? I was part of a group presenting to the Standing Orders Select Committee, which sets the rules

that dictate how Parliament runs. We went there saying if you want more young people to vote and be involved in democracy, you need to make changes. They were things like better utilisation of Parliament TV and being able to use your cellphones in Parliament. And tell me a bit about your life and interests outside of this work? To be honest, this takes a lot of my life, and I really enjoy doing

this. But I do have other interests. I play rugby for the Sumner division 1 team. I’ve always loved rugby. And I’m an engineering student at Canterbury University, currently second year in the civil engineering department. Hopefully, I should be done next year. So you’re planning a career as an engineer? I still haven’t fully figured out what kind of engineering I want to do, but long term, yes, I want to be a civil engineer. Short term,

I would love to travel, maybe use the fact I can play rugby to see the world, if I could play for a European team somewhere. I’d like to widen my experience and then bring that back home. But short and long term, I want to keep working for my Pasifika young people, in whatever capacity I’m in. And for the average person on the street, is there anything we can do day-to-day to help fight suicide and mental illness? It seems like such an airy-fairy answer, but just a smile and a bit of kindness goes a long way. Having the courage to step out in faith and ask someone if they are okay, even if you don’t know them, whether it’s an outlier in a crowd, or if it’s a friend who seems to be acting a tiny bit different. These are signs, invitations we call them, to go and talk to them. Ask them, are you okay? But at the same time, don’t expect to be the answer and save their life, just be there to listen and to guide them to an actual professional or counsellor. Don’t feel the burden, because if something does go wrong it’s not your fault. Whatever you can give to a person, your time or your presence, is enough.

Sumner score first win By Gordon Findlater SUMNER celebrated their first home game of the season with a win in an 11-try blockbuster against University at St Leonards Square on Saturday. The confidence-booster could be just what the doctor ordered going into the weekend’s big clash against New Brighton in the annual battle of the beaches. The 42-35 victory over University was also Sumner’s first win this season. However, it took a big second half effort after Sumner were trailing by 13 late in the first half. “We just weren’t competing in the first half, we were letting them boss us around,” said Sumner coach Martin Dodgson. “We had a really good serious hard chat at half time and then the boys just came out and fired.” Sumner came out looking like

an all-new beast and turned the tide early in the second half with two tries in a matter of minutes to take the lead. First-five Nik Cumming set up Tom McFarlane after throwing a dummy and drawing the last man, before Archie McBride and Poasa Waqanibau combined near the half-way line before the big Fijian ran away and scored under the posts. Cumming crossed the line midway through the second 40 to extend Sumner’s lead before University answered back with a try of their own. Resilient defence in the final 15 minutes paid dividends for the home side, enabling Sumner to celebrate their first home game with the right result. Some explosive running and dialled-in penalty kicking from Cumming was key to the team’s success.

“He’s a great little runner,” said Dodgson. “He really can spot a gap and put others through as well. (Cumming) had a blinder

Linwood 45-13 at the weekend and will come to St Leonards Square as the favourite. “We want to respect the history of the game and we’ll welcome our brothers from New Brighton with open arms, but all I’ll ask is that we’re competing with energy and enthusiasm. If I see that, then we’ll get it done,” said Dodgson.

Lavell takes out champions title John Lavell, of the Sumner club, won the Bowls Canterbury Champion of Champions men’s singles title at the Woolston Club at the weekend. He defeated Belfast’s Nathan Glassons 21-11 in the final to claim the title. Lavell qualified for the tournament by winning Sumner’s men’s singles title earlier this year.

Sumner resident Seb Sacht helped Ferrymead Bays secure their fifth win this season with a 1-0 victory over Western in the latest round of the Mainland Premier League. After seven rounds Bays is just one point behind competition leader Coastal Spirit, and have a game in hand.

Enrolling now for 2018 Message from the Principal Kia ora koutou. Talofa. Kia Orana. Malo e lelei. Bula. Fakaalofa atu. Namaste. Kumusta. Haere mai ki te kura. Warm greetings to the Linwood College community. It is good to be able to report to our community of the successes of Term One. What is particularly pleasing is the increased involvement of students in co-curricular activities and the already close monitoring of 2017 NCEA achievement. This means that students achieving well are acknowledged and further encouraged while students with any early achievement ‘wobbles’ are promptly noted, with student-family-school conversations occurring. This is important to us as we value the dual concepts of personal pathways and personal excellence. Connected to these student pathways is another very pleasing development that has occurred over Term One - the Community of Learning (COL). COLs are schools collaborating to ensure the student is at the centre of all activity, but not just in the individual school that they are in at the time, but as students progress through their education. Linwood College is already in

the Tamai COL. These schools are LC, Te Waka Unua, Linwood North, Linwood Ave, Bromley, Tamariki and Bamford. A few weeks ago the Bays cluster of schools – Sumner, Our Lady Star of the Sea, Redcliffs, Mt Pleasant, Heathcote Valley – made an application to become a COL with Linwood College as their partnership secondary school and this has been accepted by the Minister of Education. A practical example of how COLs are good news is when Heathcote Valley’s Year 7-8s stay after their regular Technology class at LC to have enrichment Science, brain dissection amongst other things! Another enrichment programme that is occurring for both COLs is debating and oratory. Mrs Jac Yoder, our HOLA English; Mrs Rose McInerney, Redcliffs Principal and Ms Janeane Reid, Te Waka Unua Principal have brought together our top debaters and orators in Years 6-8 to work together in an eight-week programme. Personal excellence in action. Nga mihi nui to our community as we close Term One and prepare for the further positive activity of Term Two. If any member of the community wishes to talk to me about anything, my door is open. Richard Edmundson - Tumuaki-Principal

Taster Day 2017 Taster Day offered students the opportunity to see a range of different out-of-class activities that are on offer at Linwood College. Some of these activities include: community garden club, volleyball, futsal/football, league, Pasifika, theatre sports, young enterprise, cricket, kapa haka, debating, car club, Mindfulness, Duke of Edinburgh Awards, Cactus, board games, rock bands, netball, basketball, maths club, Robotics, Ki o Rahi and choir.

Polyfest 2017 Linwood College students represented the College superbly during the recent Polyfest 2017 event. This was a day of celebration for all Pasifika students living in Christchurch. The Polynesian festival is a practical opportunity to strengthen students’ knowledge of their cultural heritage while showcasing their dancing and performance skills.

Dramatic Flair Year 10 students have recently finished Commedia Dell’Arte performances. This is an Italian form of theatre which focuses on themes such as Love, Food and Money.

Linwood College Cactus Training More than sixty Linwood College students have passed through the rigorous ‘Cactus’ Program. Cactus is a big commitment both physically and mentally, challenging the students from Years 7 to 13 to test their limits with training starting at 6.30am. Recently the Woolston Fire Brigade supported the program by providing onsite training at the Woolston Fire Training Centre.

2017 PRODUCTION: WOLFSTOCK We are very excited to present our production Wolfstock to our community. With auditions now completed, this will be performed during the third term.

Festival of Nations For two days in March, Linwood College was on show - in all its glory as communities from forty-seven countries came together to take part in its very first Festival of Nations. The idea was to create a multi-ethnic celebration that reflected the contemporary Linwood reality. The event kicked off with a colourful Parade of Nations, with students and communities, proudly marching in their ethnic gear, preceded by their flag and placard bearer. “The range of colourful costumes worn by our students, staff and community, was simply breath-taking,’ said Navjot McCormack, Head of Linwood College’s English Language Learning Department, the festival organisers. The festival concluded with a Cultural Evening, a night of spectacular entertainment. “One parent said that it felt as if they were entering another world. I quite agree”, said Mrs McCormack.

Travel Visiting the mystical city of Edoras By Mike Yardley IT’S THE type of scenery that screensavers are made for – Mt Sunday, deep in the heart of the Canterbury high country. I always find it fascinating to experience your own turf through the lens of a tourist, gleaning fresh perspectives from the outside world on the place you call home. Better known to movie-fans as the mystical city of Edoras, I recently joined a guided journey to this spectacular cinematic location with Hassle-free Tours. Heading south of Christchurch, in a comfortable six-wheel Toyota Land Cruiser, with elevated seating and panoramic windows, our driver-guide, Hammond, set sail on his illuminating, chatty commentary on the two-hour drive. We entered the Hakatere Conservation Park, flanked by the alpine lakes of Camp and Clearwater and their tight cluster of rustic batches. A quick photostop to soak up the expansive high country vistas served merely as an appetiser for the majesty that lay ahead. On a heavily rutted gravel Hakatere-Potts Rd, bracketed in golden hills of snow tussock, matagouri and toetoe, the most celestial viewpoint appeared at the Mt Potts Cutting, stretching across the broad basin of the Rangitata Valley, buttressed by heroically high mountains and sheer cliffs. Welcome to the Kingdom of Rohan. Much of the land belongs to Mt Potts Station, however, in

SPECTACLE: Mt Sunday-Edoras.

MAJESTIC: Rutted gravel roads are no problem to the Hassle-free Land Cruiser. (Below) – Mt Sunday and the Rohan sword.

the wake of the Lord of the Ringsinspired popularity, DOC created an easement to Mt Sunday aka Edoras. From the public car park, it’s a 15min walk up the southern spur of Mt Sunday. However, one of the many advantages of taking the journey with Hassle-free Tours is that it is the only operator with a concession to drive past the car park, fording the gin-clear streams and up part of the mountain, using the rutted track on the northern spur, which the land cruiser made light work of. From there, it’s a rather effortless stroll to the summit. Sixhundred metres above sea level, this rocky, protruding jewel in the middle of this insanely photogenic valley beckoned us like a

beacon. After we’d mounted the summit, the 360deg alpine panorama is so enthrallingly kaleidoscopic, so jaw-droppingly epic, not even a month of Sundays basking in this perspective would become boring. There’s Erewhon Station of Clydesdales-fame, the serpentine braids of the Rangitata River, the Southern Alps, the expansive valley plain and the silvery, slinking trail of Potts River. The air was so crisp and clear, the mountains seemed magnified with sharp edges and spectacular shingle fans. Only the sound of happilyclicking shutters, competed against the strengthening howls of the wind. The wind-speed reached 72km/h as we took in the summit spectacle and endured an involuntary facial exfoliation. Notorious for wind gusts, Hammond remarked that at the time of shooting, the Rings crew were buffeted by wind gusts as high as 180km/h. The real beauty of the Hassle-free tour is all the insightful behind-the-scenes nuggets. On one particularly windy day, Sir Peter Jackson’s glasses flew off his face, over the cliff, never to be seen again. There’s a movie relic to hunt for. Sir Peter stumbled upon this cinematic location by sheer accident. His location scouts were choppering down to the West

Coast, but were forced to fly east due to bad weather, chancing upon Mt Sunday by a stroke of sheer luck. Many of the riders of Rohan were actually women from pony clubs in mid-Canterbury. Hammond also explained how the construction of the city of Edoras took nine months, showing us photos of the elaborate sets, including Golden Hall, which graced this rocky outcrop. The cast and crew only spent 11 days actually shooting on sight. In spite of the alpine location, miraculously, they didn’t see one drop of rain. Hammond also was equipped with an arsenal of replica weaponry and flags from the movie, which we had great fun posing with for obligatory photos. A variety of movie featurettes were played to our group, including some cracking bloopers. What really shone through was how much the cast genuinely fell in love with Mt Sunday. Driving back to Christchurch, Hammond finally revealed that he was Hammond Peek, the double Oscar-

winner, who sound engineered the Rings trilogy. After 36 years in film and television, since 2006, Hammond has been a driver-guide for Hassle-free Tours. He only works a couple of days a week, so you may want to request a date when he’s behind the wheel. Location is the pixie dust of movie dreams and Mt Sunday is a star specimen in our own backyard.

Tutors’ commitment brings results for students A genuine commitment to helping students achieve in education and concern for what happens to them are what brings the results for children tutored at Kip McGrath Ferrymead, says franchise owner Helen Hudson. “As they progress through the sessions we see them blossom and grow in confidence with their learning and that’s so rewarding,”

Helen says. The other key factors that set Kip McGrath apart and contribute to students’ success are that all tutors have to be qualified teachers, and that students have the same tutor every time they attend, Helen says. “This allows the tutors to build a rapport with their students. They work on an individualised programme within a small group of three to five students.” Communication with parents is another important aspect, Helen points out. “We have to be meeting the needs of the children as the parents see it, as well as what we see is needed.” Kip McGrath Ferrymead has six tutors offering students from Year 1-13 tutoring in maths and English – covering a broad spectrum of spelling, writing and reading, with the tutors fully conversant with NCEA requirements.

Chemistry and physics tutoring is available for Year 11, 12 and 13 students. “With the senior students we work alongside them, but they are really the leader of the lesson, which is tailormade to their needs,” Helen says. There is also a focus on children with learning difficulties, such as dyslexia, Kip McGrath Ferrymead franchise owner Helen and for accelerant students, Hudson helping a student who need extra challenges. available for Kip McGrath tutoring. Each tutoring session lasts one hour 20 minutes, with about six different Registered Ngai Tahu members receive activities included each time. Sessions are some funding, as do registered members run outside school hours, either before or of the Rotorua-based Tauhara No. 2 Trust. after school, with most students attending Fletchers also provide funding subsidies for family members of their employees. once a week. Free assessments are offered, and students “We also offer one-on-one tutoring for adult students, who may need to improve can enroll at any time of the year. Kip McGrath Ferrymead is located at their English or maths skills for work they Unit 1, 27 Waterman Place, Ferrymead, want to apply for.” There are several funding subsidies phone 384 1188.

This gorgeous character cottage has been lovingly maintained and is beautifully presented both inside and out. This property combines the best of traditional and contemporary with double glazing keeping you toasty warm throughout the winter months. An open plan area incorporates living, dining, and kitchen and forms the heart of the home. Original polished wood floors add a warm natural feel, while a new pellet fire and heat pump keep the heat locked in. A sunroom adjoining the main living area is ideal for an extra sitting room or sundrenched office space. Light, modern decor in warm tones creates a homely feel throughout, while high ceilings add to the sense of space. There are two bedrooms, both of which have heat pumps to keep everyone comfortable all year round, and there is a separate studio at the back of the home. The roomy bathroom has a beautiful free standing claw-foot bath and separate shower.
