A major fire at a heritage-listed Christchurch mansion that had been sitting derelict for years has been deemed suspicious.

Firefighters spent hours trying to save Antonio Hall, on Riccarton Rd, after the fire erupted about 5.20pm on Friday.

At its peak, more than 50 firefighters were involved in putting out the "significant" blaze, and about 50 neighbouring properties were evacuated for several hours. Residents were able to return home about 8.30pm and all road closures had since been lifted.

Sharonika finds resilience through Graeme Dingle Foundation

Graeme Dingle Foundation

Teen Sharonika Prasad used to be scared, of life, of opportunity.

She lacked self-confidence. ‘‘I had a negative mind set in which I had beliefs that I would never be successful at anything, with a very low self-esteem. ‘‘I made excuses because I had no motivation and little confidence and I let life pass me by even if it was a wonderful opportunity because I was so afraid of the unknown.’’

Not anymore! Prasad, 18, and the youngest in a family of five, is now working as a caregiver while studying a foundation course at NZMA for occupational therapy and has realised she ‘‘could do anything’’. She is the first in her family to go to university. The South Auckland teen has found her potential with the help of our Foundation that aims to transform young Kiwi lives.

A 7-metre tall drug-producing cactus is pricking interest from worldwide bidders hoping to get their hands on a piece of the towering Christchurch plant.

Owner Jonny Small is hacking off sections of the 30-year-old cactus and shipping them to green-fingered customers as far away as Idaho, Arizona, Texas and Canada.

It was planted in Addington as a seedling more than three decades ago, but its roots had become out-of-control and the land was due to be cleared for development so it "needed to go", Small said.

Hello!

We’re Freddie and Frankie! We are housesitters here in Christchurch, and we're on the hunt for houses to sit! We are a couple who have been living in Christchurch for the past year. We are very responsible and friendly people, with lots of experience in home sitting. We recently housesat a home in St Martins for 3 months, looking after pets, lawns etc. We will be very respectful of your home and privacy, and will keep your home safe and sound while you are away. We are big animal lovers, and would love to take care of your pet(s) while you're away, including making sure your pet(s) get plenty of exercise and lots of pats. We are currently house sitting in Beckham, where we look after a lovely dog, collect post and keep the house safe and sound!

Freddie is into his fourth year studying Law at Canterbury Uni and is currently working at Hohepa doing gardening. Frankie is on a working gap year as a waitress at Dose Diner, who previously studied Languages at Victoria Uni in Wellington and is looking into studying here in Christchurch.

We are available from the 21st of July but please message any other dates past this! We can provide positive references from previous housesits :) We don't charge any money, so we're far cheeper than a kennel!

Thanks, Freddie and Frankie :)
