FULTON School for the Deaf recently became the proud new hosts of a filming studio, thanks to Container Conversions.
Learners at Fulton do South African Sign Language (SASL) as their home language subject, and the studio will be used to support the development of SASL texts.
The space will also be used for various other purposes such as filming stories of the deaf community in Durban, SASL poetry by Deaf poets of KZN and photography.
“We know that this space will be one for creative expression, literary exploration and historical documentation,” said the school’s principal, Odette Swift.

“We are so thankful to Container Conversions for this amazing gift, which is not only a gift to the school but to the deaf community of Durban and KZN at large.”
Kelly Bosch, the external sales representative at Container Conversions who facilitated the donation, watched the installation of the unit with baited breath along with many of the learners and teachers.
“Container Conversions is proud of our ongoing CSI initiatives and is excited to be associated with Fulton School. We trust that there will be many stories told and texts created and smiles generated in the new studio,” said Kelly.
