You may have heard the sad news that our community pool has a serious leak. Major repairs are needed or it will not be able to reopen.

Our fundraising committee have been hard at work coming up with ideas for fundraising, organising events and applying for grants. We’ve also created a website to keep our members past and present, up to date with events and progress.

https://custpool.co.nz/

The website has information about the pool, the problems, what’s needed, and how you can help. Please click the link to find out more.

If you have any ideas that could help raise money for the repairs, contact us on fb or email us [email protected]

If you’d like to make a donation you can do this on the website or directly to our givealittle page, click on the link below.

Losing the pool would be such a blow to the community, it’s been a cherished place for people in Cust for more than 70 years and we’d like to help it last for another 70.

Thank you

We hope everyone is enjoying the sunshine and the pool.
A reminder that Cust School has exclusive use of the pool and changing rooms between 9&3 weekdays term time. Thank you

We knew it! Swimming is amazing.

This is movement that heals from the inside out.

Swimming doesn’t just strengthen your body it reshapes your brain.
Studies show it boosts memory by increasing blood flow to the hippocampus (the brain’s memory center), helps regulate the nervous system, and even improves the depth and quality of your sleep.

The rhythmic motion.
The deep breathing.
The weightlessness in water.

It all sends signals to your brain: you’re safe, you’re present, you can rest.

And unlike many workouts, swimming stimulates both brain hemispheres, supporting neural growth, mood balance, and long-term brain health.

Because sometimes the fastest way to reset your mind…
is to float.
