Retirement Village Boolaroo
Newcastle

I would like to introduce myself, my name is Kathy Picken and I am delighted to be the Village Manager for Oak Tree Retirement Village in Boolaroo.

I have lived in the Lake Macquarie area for over thirty years, originally from Orange NSW. My husband and I have raised a family here and our children, now adults live close by. We have been fortunate to travel over the past year and we really appreciate the beauty of Lake Macquarie and the fantastic people that call it home.

I have over 30 years experience in the community services sector and have always found myself working with seniors in some way, which I have enjoyed immensely.

I have been privileged to work in Oak Tree villages in both NSW and QLD and I love how residents are supported by Oak Tree throughout the process of selling their property and also settling into their new homes in the village.

I believe the Oak Tree boutique style model works extremely well, enabling residents to get to know each other by creating friendly and supportive communities, with lots of great activities.

I am extremely excited to be part of the Oak Tree team and look forward to making a difference to the lives of our residents, families and friends.

My name is Kellie Quinn and I have represented The Oak Tree Group within sales and marketing for over 6 years and have worked within this industry for 18 years.

I specialise in working within the retirement sector and I am very passionate about servicing and delivering to this very important demographic and their specific needs.

Following on from the sell-out success of Oak Tree Cardiff, I now relish my sales role for our exciting new Boolaroo Village and to build a new Oak Tree community.
