Welcome to Cust School | Haere Mai

Gerhard Potgieter —

Cust Primary School is situated between Rangiora and Oxford, about 40 kilometres northwest of Christchurch. With around 140 students, our school is a vibrant community where children are enthusiastic about learning, passionate, and content.

Our guiding vision is 'Be Your Best'. Our committed teachers strive to establish a nurturing educational setting that prioritises each student's needs and fosters an environment where every child can strive to achieve their best.

In our school community, there is a diverse mix of families with deep roots in the area and newcomers. The school serves as the heart of the community, receiving strong support from both attending families and the broader community. This support is vital for creating a positive and inclusive environment where everyone can thrive and contribute to the collective growth and well-being of the community. By fostering connections and collaboration among families, the school becomes a place where traditions are honoured and relationships are nurtured. This dynamic blend of old and new perspectives enriches the school community, creating a vibrant and engaging environment for all its members.
