25.01.2022 When planning your retirement, one of the most important decisions you’ll make involves where to live. Moving to a retirement community can offer advantages when it comes to amenities, recreation, and being able to connect with other like-minded people. However, it’s important to consider what you’ll pay for senior living and how it compares to other options.

23.01.2022 You don't need a green thumb or a huge plot of land to reap the benefits of growing fresh vegetables and herbs. Whether you're currently living on your own or you're residing in a retirement village, planting vegetables and herbs in a garden can help improve your community as a whole. Not only will it help make the surrounding area look more colourful and beautiful, but it can also help promote a positive mindset, improve your nutrition and is a great form of physical exercise. #improving #your #wellbeing #retirement

23.01.2022 The streets may not be paved with gold and this road might be a little less travelled, but it isn't a road to nowhere, it's a road to home. Our construction team are getting ready to pour the road to some of our final villas. Only 6 remain available from our final 20 homes. #oaktreegoonellabah

23.01.2022 For those playing the 'can we predict the weather game' here is the rest of today's forecast. Hold onto your hats!

20.01.2022 If you have a cup and a microwave chances are you can create a quick and easy treat just the perfect size for one. We highly recommend trying this recipe.

19.01.2022 Who loves a bus trip? Simes Bros Coaches have just released their schedule for 2021.

19.01.2022 Here is a little comparison of Oak Tree Goonellabah. The first photo was taken in 2015, and the second today. 80 homes, hundreds of friendships and one fabulous community will all have been created in 6 years. #oaktreegoonellabah

18.01.2022 This humble little bird box out the front of villa one has housed about 10 broods for Mr and Mrs Rosie (Rosellas). Today resident Bronwyn took a quick look inside to check how many chicks we have and we are happy to show you six. Bronwyn Collins

18.01.2022 Oak Tree Goonellabah would like to say thank you to Steve from Casino Removals who made some time last minute to help us move our display villa furniture within the village. Great service that was very much appreciated. Thanks Steve! https://www.facebook.com/CasinoRemovals

17.01.2022 At Oak Tree we love morning tea. Every Wednesday at 10am residents across all of our villages gather to enjoy the company of others and some delicious treats. We thought you might like the recipe for one of our Village Manager Catherine's favourite slices. Although no one makes it like Rita in Goonellabah does. https://www.taste.com.au//fbb47b94-66a2-4742-a0c6-10bfde8c

16.01.2022 Australians love their furry friends. Whether you have dog, cat or bird, the family pet is a huge part of our lives. Research has shown that caring for a pet can actually improve the health and well being for older adults. Perhaps one of the most fascinating evidence of health benefits from pet ownership was revealed in a 1980 study of heart disease patients. After months spent examining these patients and recording details of their lives and lifestyles, it was concluded tha...t "the presence of a pet was the strongest social predictor of survival - not just for lonely or depressed people, but for everyone." Even social support and marital status had less of an effect on longevity. At Oak Tree, we understand and know how important pets are to our residents and how much more enjoyment you’ll get out of your lifestyle with your pet by your side. Our pet friendly villages all cater for resident pets. Your decision to live in an Oak Tree village won’t mean you have to leave your feline friend or canine companion behind. #bbf #petsofoaktree

15.01.2022 To Move Or Not To Move? This can be a significant question for many soon-to-be retired or retirees. It may also be the first of many more questions. For example What about our pet? What will the children feel about us moving from the family home? Will anyone want all the things I have collected? What will we do with all our belongings if we downsize? Will it be convenient to see our friends and family? Can we have visitors? What are the costs? How will we spend our time? W...here will we go? This certainly prompts much thought and conversation. Here at Oak Tree Retirement Villages we are here to help answer those burning questions around what to expect when you buy in, move in and live in a retirement community. Talk to us today!

08.01.2022 From cats to dogs and feathered friends, domesticated pets are part of the Oak Tree family. The most popular reason we have pets is for their companionship. Evidence shows that dogs help people live a healthier and happier life. Dogs have been shown to improve their humans’ cardiovascular and mental health by reducing blood pressure, increasing exercise, and decreasing stress and anxiety levels. They have also been shown to help in the treatment of depression and grief. ... So why not start your next chapter with the added comfort of having your loyal furry or feathered companion by your side? #oaktree #petfriendly
