The bustling atmosphere 

was vibrant

with students 

learning

the art

of cooking. 

​

Noah’s eyes sparkled 

with anticipation

at the sight 

of his future

culinary adventures 

again this summer.

​

Emma eagerly

anticipated 

seeing her aunt, 

who taught

biology there. 

 

The campus, 

spread across 

the top floors

of the Emporium, 

was a marvel 

of modern

educational facilities. 

​

The

cinema 9 lecture halls 

and numerous classrooms, 

labs and faculty spaces 

created an inspiring

environment 

for learning, 

all within a blend

of luxury shopping,

​

The mix of people

was electric 

with excitement

and energy. 

​

​

​

After a quick tour 

of the culinary campus, 

Noah and Emma 

made their way

upstairs to the

Health Sciences

campus. 

​

The transition

from the bustling 

food court

to the serene, 

educational

atmosphere 

of the

Health Sciences

campus 

was striking. 

​

Emma

was excited

to see her aunt,

who greeted them

warmly. 

​

They spent

some time

catching up,

with her aunt

sharing stories 

about the fascinating

projects 

and classes

at the campus, 

and especially

in the

multimedia

cinema 9

lecture halls. 

​

As the sun

continued to rise, 

casting a warm glow

over the city, 

Noah and Emma 

headed back

downstairs, 

to their day

filled with new

cooking experiences 

and culinary

discoveries. 

 

​

They had

explored new

educational

landmarks, 

enjoyed the city’s

unique blend 

of old and new, 

and spent quality

time together

with their aunt, 

all before

starting class

for the day. 

​

It was a day

to be filled 

full of adventure

and learning.

​

And eating

their class work 

among

new friends

and teachers.
