DAWSON CHINESE CULTURE CLUB (DCCC)
The primary goal of the Dawson Chinese Culture Club is to promote cultural exchange and mutual understanding. It will provide an opportunity for all current students to gain a deeper understanding of Chinese culture. We will also build on traditional Chinese festivals and traditional cultural customs, and create a kind, friendly and warm "home" for all Dawson students. The club welcomes responsible, enthusiastic and caring students to join us and spread Chinese culture at dawson by showing a variety of talents, leaving the deepest mark in a limited pre-university career. The club emphasizes diversity and inclusion, and encourages students from different cultural backgrounds to participate. This means that not only the Chinese community in Dawson can join, but all those who are interested in Chinese culture are welcome. Please visit our Instagram, all the information is there!
