      [quote=\"kab\"]What about renting? Maybe you can consider rent out your current place and rent a place within one km from the school?


      Kab your kid got in rgs le? It's the logistic and location that is holding me back .. If I were to rent I rather move haha

      Yeah my girl got in. We stay very close to the RGPS. But when I was unexpected pregnant with number three, we panicked before we knew the gender. What if it's a boy?!? So I quickly got myself into PV with Rosyth. And planned to rent a place near the school. (rent will come from rental income from renting out our own place. So the extra $ needed will only be agent fee)
      Lucky my third baby cooperated and opened her legs big big during her 15 week scan. Gynae confirmed it's a girl. Next day we resigned from the PV program.[/quote]congrats!!! 3 girls u are so blessed!!

          If I do not even have a chance for balloting, I would not even do PV for starters. But since you have already begun, u may wanna discontinue if u find it real pointless and will not be shifting houses.


          For me, from past years’ statistics, I should have a chance to enter balloting. This is a chance I took.
          I also enjoyed the PV work leh…in fact, i asked them for more challenging tasks…[/quote]

          of coz when i applied for pv i had a chance to ballot… thats all i ask for but turned out this year ballot within 1km!! haiz… i won’t even have a chance at the ball game.

            maybe things will change next year. jus finish ur pv work then..at least if u don't have a chance to ballot, the P will remember u as an active volunteer, and put u top on the wait list.

            All the best! 🙂

              Yes, continue and complete your PV work at Rosyth.

              Do not quit. P will remember you. Even if U don’t get in Rosyth in phase 2B, enrol into another school first. When the time is ready and vacancy arise, P will remember to call you to come in.

              Because if you quit your PV halfway, you don’t leave a good impression behind, to the P.
