Chinese people in Otago

 

Our project is on Chinese people in Otago. We chose this topic because these days there are more Chinese people in our community and we wanted to know what first brought them here and more about their culture. The Chinese people have contributed a lot to our society, including flowers and food. The reason this topic is so important to us is because of the gold rushes in Otago when the Chinese people first came.
