Hi janet_lee88

Ya, I was thinking if they reject me, they should also inform me. In any case, as my registration is supposed to be in yr 2012, they will let me know by next Sep :lol: still got hope!

:? :? :? :? :?
2012? Isn't the cut-off date for PV over already?

Hi Daddy D

no...from what I understand from them, I'm actually early. When I 1st call them to enquire the application in Aug, they told me that I could go down and take the form. So I proceed with the registration.

Hi everyone


Need advise from parents doing their PVS:

I understand from the admin personnel from the school that I can indicate on the PV appln form on what I am keen to help out with as a PV. Then what about the hours, can I specify like I can only help out in the morning of weekdays from 8am-11am ? I am a SAHM, so can only commit during the time when my DS2 goes to school. Is there such a thing that I indicate the preferred timing or have to go by the school’s given timing. Thanks!

Just remember that if you are too restrictive in your timings, the school may not be able to find stuff for you to do. So my advice is to be flexible where you can.
