Good morning everyone,

I have added a practice examination to webcms under Assessment. I do recommend that you use this practice examination to practice under exam conditions. By this I mean that you set aside several two hour blocks and practice writing out answers within these blocks.

All best,

Seb

Good Friday plan for tutorial exercises

Posted by Sebastian Sequoiah-Grayson Monday 30 March 2026, 03:06:15 PM.

Hi everyone!

Welcome back to Term 1 : )

So, this coming Friday is Good Friday . Good Friday is a public holiday . Since the University is closed for public holidays, we need to make alternative arrangements for the tutorial exercises for those of you who have your tutorials on Fridays. These alternative arrangements are as follows:

1) This Thursday's lecture will finish at 12:25. From 12:30, I shall run a tutorial exercise make-up session in the lecture theatre. This arrangement is available only for those students whose tutorials are on Friday . All other students must leave the lecture theatre.

2) For those of you who have your tutorials on Fridays but cannot make the Thursday lecture theatre at 12:30, you are permitted to attend any other face-to-face tutorial for this week, in which you may complete your tutorial exercise. You are not permitted to attend an online tutorial. This arrangement is available only for those students whose tutorials are on Friday. All other students must attend their timetabled tutorials as usual.

I know that this is a bit of a fussy arrangement, but public holidays really do mess things up.

Most importantly, I am looking very forward to seeing you on Wednesday for our first lecture after the break! I shall be speaking with you on professionalism and whistle-blowing.

All best,

Seb

Good Friday tutorial plan

Posted by Sebastian Sequoiah-Grayson Monday 16 March 2026, 12:18:42 PM, last modified Monday 16 March 2026, 12:20:09 PM.

Dear All,

This year, Good Friday falls on April 3, which is Friday of Week 7. This means that we must do something with regard to Tutorial Exercise 5 of 6, which takes place in tutorials over Week 7. What we will do is as follows:

The final 30 minutes of the lecture on Thursday April 2 will be dedicated to the Tutorial Exercise for those students whose tutorials fall on Fridays. Students whose tutorials are not on Fridays must complete their tutorial exercises in their regular tutorials as usual, and these students are not permitted to compete the tutorial exercise in the Thursday lecture.

If you are enrolled in a Friday tutorial and if you cannot make the Thursday lecture time-slot, then please go to any other tutorial during Week 7 on Tuesday, Wednesday, or Thursday. Please note that the opportunity to attend a non-enrolled tutorial for the purposes of completing the Tutorial Exercise extends to Week 7 only, and it extends to students enrolled in Friday tutorials only.

All other non-Friday tutorials in Week 7 will run as usual.

A very Happy Easter to those of you celebrating.

All best,

Seb
