It's about building lives
Matamata Christian School
From it’s humble beginnings in February 1988 as Rainbow Park Christian School when 11 pupils and a teacher started meeting in the basement of a home on Tower Road, to it’s present 120 pupil Smith Street site as Matamata Christian School, people have listened and responded to God’s quickening of their hearts and have contributed in many different ways to make the school what it is today.
