Welcome to your home away from home -
Tōtara Springs Christian Centre.

A place of welcoming, camaraderie and a sense of belonging. Where you'll build friendships, experience community, and gain a sense of accomplishment... achieving what didn't seem possible!

Tōtara Springs is one of the largest centres of its kind in New Zealand and is the ultimate venue for church retreats, school camps, sports activities, events, holiday camps and family reunions.

A place to grow at the ultimate venue

Situated in a beautiful setting, nestled at the foot of the Kaimai mountain ranges in Matamata, with 90 acres of park-like grounds and native bush with streams, walks and bush trails. We have a large indoor sports & activity centre and breakaway areas, as well as a large hot pool fed by natural springs. With space to sleep over 460 campers in beds + unlimited tent sites, there's a place for everyone at Tōtara Springs Christian Centre.
