Cooking on Campus = good food, great people! Our Cooking on Campus workshops were such a vibe ✨

Both sessions were packed with international students cooking up tasty sushi bowls and dessert toasties, learning simple nutrition tips, and having fun together in the kitchen.

It was awesome to see students trying something new, sharing a meal, and meeting others in a relaxed, welcoming space. Social connection is as important as eating well.💛

Thanks so much to everyone who joined us, and a special thank you to our facilitators (Nutrition & Dietetic students).

Eating well doesn’t have to be expensive or complicated. Fuel your brain and body with something nutritious and delicious today! 👩‍🍳👨‍🍳

Passwords alone aren’t enough anymore. Cyber threats are getting smarter—so it’s time to level up your security.

The best way to protect your accounts is with Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA).

Why use MFA?
✔ Stops unauthorised access
✔ Protects your data & identity
✔ Keeps university systems safe

Quick tips:
• Set up MFA
• Only approve logins you start
• Never share codes or passwords
• Report unexpected prompts ASAP
