Acacia Cove retirement village is flanked to the east by Wattle Downs Golf & Country Club and to the west by an estuary teaming with aquatic wildlife.

Our magnificent 'Lodge' Community Centre is positioned to maximise the tranquil outlook and spectacular sunset views. The village offers a variety of organised community activities, regular outings and events as well as top quality facilities. With the bowling green, indoor pool and activities room all facing the sun and estuary, comparisons are hard to find. For those relaxed afternoons in the sun, the lounge and restaurant provide the perfect place to sit in the company of friends and neighbours.

Within the community centre is a range of amenities including an open fireplace, billiard table, gym, spa bath, hairdressing salon, nurse's station, library and computers. A beautifully appointed meeting room forms the focal point for all activities from the walking group to the garden club, and provides a place to gather before and after going across the road to the golf course.

A new email scam impersonating the NZTA is being sent around telling vehicle owners their licences are due.

The email directs the recipient to renew the funds through clicking a 'Renew Now' button at the bottom corner of the email. It then takes the individual to fake website that gets them to fill in personal details.

CERT NZ, the government authority responsible for cyber security said in a tweet, that anyone who receives this email should report it directly to Waka Kotahi (NZTA).

How to spot a phishing scam:
- NZTA will only send an email through if an individual has contacted them first.
- Email addresses will always end in @nzta.govt.nz, @enews.nzta.govt.nz or @reply.nzta.govt.nz.
- The email may be missing specific details that the NZTA will have on file: such as your plate number, the date your vehicle license is due and vehicle make and model.
- Hover over buttons and links to see if the pop-up will take you to a genuine government (.govt.nz) website

Neighbourly will update this message as further information comes to hand.
