The Epsom Chinese Association was founded in 2007 with a group of Chinese residents coming together at Melville Park in Epsom doing daily morning excercises together. Over time we grew to a bigger group and we also started meeting twice a week at the Epsom Baptist Church. We have various recreational activities such as singing, Chinese line dancing, folk dancing, Tai Chi and table tennis. We also manage a small community space, called the Kimberley Room, at 33 Kimberely Rd in Epsom. Here we offer Art classes including Chinese Calligraphy and Sewing Repair Cafes on a regular basis. We host workshops organised by Diabetes Aotearoa as well as environmental information sessions. The Kimberley Room can be booked for activities at an affordable rate for community organisations. We aim to provide opportunities for engagement that provide and strengthen a sense of belonging. With more than 200 members we have created a strong support network for each other. Our members are also keen performers. We have a traditional Chinese singing groups incl. Beijing Opera, dance groups, a choir and a Tai Chi group. We perform at Auckland festivals, libraries, rest homes, community centres and childcare centres. We are looking for new activities for our members, such as Maori language, history, customs and culture. We also work closely with Auckland Council and the Albert-Eden Local Board.

"On Monday 6th July 2026, we came together at Epsom Community Centre to celebrate Matariki — the Māori New Year.
Organised by the Epsom Chinese Association and The Music Association of Auckland, this free community event was all about reflecting on the past, celebrating the present, and looking to the future together.
We honoured Matariki with cultural dance, beautiful musical performances, and Matariki stories shared by Song Lam QSM.
From a traditional Lu Opera performance, to a P**a solo, a Māori love song 'Pokarekare Ana' by our choir, and songs by talented adults and children — the stage was full of heart.
It was a morning of music, stories, dance and community connection.
Manawatia a Matariki. Happy Matariki to everyone."

Yes, totally!

Global Friends Meetup

We had such a welcoming morning at the Epsom Community Centre for the Global Friends Meetup, organised by Welcoming Communities.
People from India, China, Latin America, and South Korea shared presentations, activities, and cultural food — including Tai Chi and smiling biscuits.
It was a lovely way to meet new friends and learn about different cultures together.
