The Board of Trustees determine if any Out of Zone places can be offered in Term 3 for the following school year, which will be advertised in the local newspaper.  If demand is greater than the number of vacancies available, a ballot will be held to allocate placements.

Out of Zone Places for 2024 (as advertised in The Northern Outlook & North Canterbury News, August 2023):

The Board of Trustees of Cust School invites applications for out of zone places for:  Up to 10 places at New Entrant Level.

The deadline for receipt of applications for Out of Zone places is 3pm Wednesday 20 September 2023. If a ballot for out of zone places is required, it will be held on Friday 22 September 2023. Parents will be informed of the outcome of the ballot within three school days of the ballot being held. If you live in the school zone and have not yet signalled your intention to enrol your child next year, please contact the school immediately to assist us to plan accordingly.
