fyi Chongfu PV requires 80 hours as compared to others which just needs 40 hours.

Ya...heard as well..but not sure what kind of PV needs to do?? 80 hours really a lot..

buzzkoony:

I heard from a friend whose kid entered that Chong Fu PV is competitive and may require balloting to become PV. If not selected as PV, you can consider to join their hokkien hway kuan to qualify as phase2b.

Judymum:

I called Chong Fu and understand that baby born in 2014 need to register in next year to be PV. Do you know what is the criteria in order to be selected as PV? What should I do if not selected as PV? stay within 1 km to the school.

Even I join SHKK without joining their activities, can I still qualify for phase 2B?? some people said is not..so still not sure, should I join or not??

[quote]6. What are the criteria to be recommended for Phase 2B registration?

A committee will be formed to review all applications nearer the date of registration. Evaluation will be based on guidelines set by this committee and on a case-by-case basis according to its merit. One of the determining factors is tenure of membership.

(The) longer the tenure, higher the chance of obtaining a recommendation.[/quote]Unless you are a veteran of the clan, I don't think you can get away with not taking part or volunteering in their activities, and still get the recommendation.

Has anyone here applied/ did PV at Ai Tong recently? It’s my turn to apply next year so would like to find out more. We live 1km from the sch but from looking at past years numbers, seems like balloting for PV within 1km is common.


Thanks in advanced for your sharing!

Dear all,


Newbie here. My girl is 2014 year. Although couple of years to go before the primary registration starts, I would like to know what’s the criteria for registering the PV. I saw few registration form which requires contribution such as motivational talks, time management etc, and as a Kiasu parent myself, should I start signing up for courses to get the relevant certificates ? so that I can gain better chance for the PV selection? any PV doing the same or in there any courses parent attend? Thanks !
