The purpose of creating a Chinese club is not only to welcome students currently studying Chinese, but more importantly to welcome students that have not yet had the opportunity to take Chinese classes or immersion classes and provide them an equal opportunity to learn about the beautiful Chinese culture and its deep rooted history. Further, we want our students to be able to learn from one another in this club and do it in a fun, creative and meaningful way.  Meetings will be held every Monday mornings from 7:30 am - 8:00 am in the Chinese classrooms.  We hope to see you there!
