Just around the corner from the Chinese Temple dedicated to Tam Kung (yesterday's post) is the Chinese Public School. I've posted photos of it before HERE and HERE because it is another of Chinatown's gems. It was built by the Chinese Community a hundred years ago when children of Chinese settlers here were denied entrance to other schools. It is still used as a school today but now teaches Canadian children of Chinese descent the culture, traditions and language of China.
