Happy New Year from Acacia Cove Village
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.
Georgina's Rhubarb Crumble
Craving a dessert that makes the most of spring's fresh produce? Look no further than Georgina's signature Rhubarb Crumble.
This delicious treat has become a favourite at Ryman’s Bert Sutcliffe Village, where the sweet and tangy aroma often wafts through the air, tempting neighbours in for a taste. It’s also a hit with Georgina's 13-year-old granddaughter, Brooklyn, who loves serving it warm with gooey custard or a scoop of melting vanilla ice cream.

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
