Cust Community Pool

We still need 3 or 4 strong people on Sunday (1st November) at the pool. We’ll be trench filling with gravel so we need muscles, wheelbarrows and shovels. Please let us know if you help from 10am. Thanks

Come along to the school after visiting the fire station for more Spooky fun 5-6pm All Hallows’ Eve.

Our November working bees will now be on:

Sunday 1st @10.00 (strong people for concreting)

Sunday 8th @10.00 (everyone for tidying, gardening etc)

We are currently filling the pool to check everything works well before concreting over the pipes 🫣

Lots of little jobs still to do but we’re getting very excited for the long (show) weekend!

Work on the pool is progressing well under cover!

Good morning ☀️ I am currently organising keys and key fobs for the pool, how exciting!
We have a naughty list of 40 people who signed out a key last year that has not been returned. These keys will not work in this year’s lock but we would like them back as we reuse the numbered fobs each year.
PLEASE RETURN LAST YEARS KEYS. These can be dropped into the school office or 466 Earlys road. Don’t make me email you all.

Keys are still available for the Cust Pool

Season keys for the Cust Community Pool, 2026/27. One key, one household, the whole season, in a freshly relined pool.

You may have noticed the scaffolding going up at the pool, it's all happening!

We're so happy to announce that we have reached our fundraising target for the repairs, any funds raised can now go towards the year's running costs. Thanks to some incredibly generous donations, grants from local organisations, events and sales, we did it!

Incredible work Cust Pool team and Community - You're awesome!

As the epic fundraising for the pool winds down, we'd like to say a special thanks to local Pumpkin extraordinaire Ken Dalley. We're so grateful to Ken for supplying the Pumpkins which were a great success and also for his very generous financial donation towards the project.

CAN YOU HELP US on November 1st?

On Sunday 1st November we are doing a Sausage Sizzle at Rangiora PaknSave. This is our last big fundraising activity to make sure we have the funds to open the new pool and keep it running for the season! Hellers have kindly donated the sausages so we have the potential to make some good money on the day! We are looking for volunteers for either 8am-12pm. Or 12pm to 4pm. Please get in touch ASAP if you can help! Thank you!!
