The Road to Bethlehem

Anna from Whakamarama

Hi All! The Road to Bethlehem is on in 2 weeks! It runs from the 15th-18th of December, from 6:30pm till approximately 9 each evening.

This awesome FREE Christmas event is a live theatre show where you actually walk through each scene of the Nativity Bible story - the Marketplace - Herod's Palace - the Shepherds' Camp - the Inn - and the stable where Baby Jesus was born - this is an amazing experience and not to be missed this Christmas. There is plenty to do in the Waiting Area - arrive a little early and have a light dinner or snack, enjoy some music, or do an activity with the kids.

Tickets for the earlier sessions are filling fast, so if you have kids, get in now. If you don't mind being up a little later, you'll get the full benefit of the night lighting in the scenes. You are guided through the experience by actors, and it takes about 45mins. Much more memorable than a movie!! ;)

Book tickets now at www.roadtobethlehem.org.nz....

Poll: If we want to reduce speeding, what do you think actually changes driver behaviour? πŸ›»πŸš¨πŸš“

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In the Post's article on speeding penalties, the question is asked whether speeding fines are truly about road safety, or are they just a way to boost revenue for the Crown?

What do you think? Should speeding motorists receive speeding fines or demerit points?

Scam Alert: Bank cold calls

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

ASB is warning customers about reports of cold calls from scammers claiming to be from ASB. These scammers are trying to obtain personal information, including usernames, dates of birth, and verification codes sent to your mobile phone.

πŸ›‘οΈ The "Caller Check" Test
If you get a call from someone claiming to be from ASB and you’re unsure, just ask them for a Caller Check. You will then be able to verify the call through the app.

Remember, banks will:​​
❌ Never ask for your banking passwords, PINs, or verification codes​​
❌ Never need to know your full credit card number – especially the CVC
❌ Never ask you to download software or remotely access your device​​
❌ Never ask you to purchase gift cards or transfer funds.

If you have received a phone call and think your account has been compromised, call ASB on 0800 ASB FRAUD (0800 272 372), or visit your local branch.
