[AMO/TT] Final sessions for 2019

Since Curtin has its close-down on 13 December, and in fact that is my last day ever at Curtin, the sessions this week will be the last for 2019, i.e.

Monday 9 December at Curtin, and Wednesday 11 December at UWA,

will be the last for 2019.

In January 2020, I will start the Olympiad training sessions up again at UWA only, in Blakers LT, on Wednesdays from 8 January but we will start an hour earlier at 4pm and run until at least 6pm, but probably 6:30pm, and we will concentrate on AMO preparation, which must surely be on

Tuesday, 4 February & Wednesday, 5 February

I'll confirm the dates in January. [Actually the dates were:

Wednesday, 5 February & Thursday, 6 February ]

Since I won't be working at Curtin anymore, I will be moving any Olympiad material either to my personal website at UWA, if I can get remote access to it, or may abandon that and put everything at the enrichedmaths site (where WAJO is). I've got a little less than a week to decide.

I will probably re-start Monday sessions in February at Perth Modern. I'll make the decision on that in January.

Just repeating, the sessions in January will *only* be:

Wednesdays at UWA in Blakers Lecture Theatre, from 4pm, from 8 January

So, note that during January, at UWA, we start an hour earlier while school is out. In February, essentially when students are back at school, the UWA sessions will revert to a 5pm start.
