Well, he hasn't come in to clarify yet, so my interpretation may not be correct.

I think you are right. This daddy must be so stressed over PV that he just typed what was on his mind...never mind, we have an intelligent parent here who is able to read.

so sorry caused so much confusion and the intelligent parent guessed correct... It's PV not OV and I need to reply the school to enrol the PV activity thru email once receives the email alert but every time can't make it.


It's 1st come 1st serve and yesterday so frustrated, even the emotions used wrongly :oops: ...should be :x not the for sure lah....

It's ok, we understand. Typo error.
But didn't know enrolling for PV activity can be done through email...that is definitely fastest finger wins.

1st come 1st serve... how to complete the hours like that?

Stress man :frustrated: to go through email alert for PV activities. Not everyone's job gives them the flexibility to have access to internet easily.

The school doesn't have a fair system of informing PVs about duties avail to clock up hours...even if parents are lucky enough to be chosen as PV, 40 hours (or 80 hours for some schools) is tough to chalk up b4 June next year.
