Hello Everyone,

As many of you already have Windows-10 as your operating system on the computer which is the latest version of Windows Microsoft has released.

According to Microsoft life cycle policy Windows 7 & 8 are already end of line in terms of support which means Microsoft won't be supporting anymore for those users who have purchased retail software. There is however extended support which is due to expire in January 2020.

This brings an opportunity mainly to the businesses to migrate their systems to Windows 10 license which is feature rich and does have extensive backward compatibility for most of the applications.

We at CloudEv Solutions help you with any IT related issues whether you are a small business or home user. For any computer, printer, internet and phone related assistance feel free to contact us on 09-2823692.

Revolutionary leader Nelson Mandela – known by his tribe as Madiba – would have been 100 this year. In celebration of his birthday and his legacy, a compelling new stage show, Madiba the Musical – a Celebration of Nelson Mandela is coming to Auckland.

This international production is interwoven with stories of the fight against apartheid and forbidden love in a troubled land. The musical pays tribute to New Zealand and the dramatic part it played in bringing an end to apartheid.

From all the Residents and Staff at Acacia Cove Village we would like to wish you all a very happy and healthy 2019! Acacia Cove Residents kicked off the New Year with a very successful party with great entertainment which got everyone on their feet, dancing into the new year!

We are looking forward to the re-commencing of the construction on the new apartments being built. If all goes as planned, they should be completed by
March 2019.

Slowly but surely everyone is returning from holiday and things are returning to the normal routine.

Our Acacia Cove Residents like to keep physically active as well as mentally. Most of our activities had a short recess period but a lot of them have already started up again to the Resident’s delight.
