A new digital experience will soon be available that will make the van Asch and Kelston Museums accessible for everyone.

The on-site museums at our school's Christchurch and Auckland main campuses are a treasure trove of Deaf history, but sadly not everyone can access those locations.

That's about to change! Our Digital Resources team and Museum experts have been building a new interactive digital experience using 3D photography. Users will be able to "walk" around the museum and click on objects to learn more about them.

Since this is our first time building something like this we have started small with 20 objects each from the van Asch and Kelston Museums. We hope to add to this and improve the experience over time.

The 3D Museum will be available in early 2021. Keep an eye out on our Facebook page and Ko Taku Reo website for more information.
