All About Parent Volunteers (PV)

[Janetoh2]

Hi parents,


I am a newbie here. I would like to check if Huamin Primary School (Yishun) has parent volunteer program for parents with child to join P1 in year 2021.

Thanks.

Is there any document I need from the school once i completed my PV hours ? So during the registration phase , do i need to show proof I completed the PV hours?

YES! U definitely need the letter from the school stating that you have completed the PV hours for that specific child. The schools should be issuing the letter around May-June. If u don’t receive it in your home letterbox, remember to chase the school.

U need to bring the letter to submit during phase 2B registration.

I just checked onemap.sg. I stay 2.2 km from st Hilda primary and 750 m from gong Shang. Can I apply for those staying 2 km from shps? Pls advise . I don't mind doing parent volunteer too. Thanks

You should use the School Query function in onemap to confirm the distance category you are in. This is the official source used by schools.

Thanks for the info . After using the school query it shows I am 1.98km from st Hilda's . What r my chances like? I viewed the balloting history but don't really understand it. Sorry for my ignorance. I m keen to apply as a PV and hope someone can share some tips. Tia.

OneMap School Query does not show decimal points. It only has <1km or <2km (fixed number category). Are you sure you’re using it correctly??

[Vicky2016]

I think I didn’t use it correctly. Thanks for the info.

May I know, usually after selected as PV, school will call parents how many weeks later?


We have been waiting for a few months and asked them but so far no PV job yet, and it looks like we need to wait several months more.

In this case, we may be difficult to complete 40 hours?

I guess it varies fr school to school…


4 ours, we were informed of our successful PV in Jul, n we were able to clock d 40 hrs in 4 mths.

The school didnt even want us to clock more than d 40 hours to let others have the opportunity to complete their 40 hrs.
