HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR for 2023

to all my students !

I hope the Year of the Rabbit is lucky for you and your families!

Here is a video celebrating Chinese New Year from my town of LIVERPOOL in the UK.

Liverpool is home to the oldest China Town community in the whole of the UK.

Liverpool Chinatown

The Chinatown in Liverpool was the first to be established in Europe and is easily recognised by the beautifully crafted Chinese Arch that adorns the entry. The arch was imported piece by piece from Shanghai, a city which Liverpool is twinned with.

The ceremonial arch stands at 13.5 metres tall and is the largest in Europe, in fact it is the tallest standing arch in any Chinatown outside of mainland China.
