      jat to check if any of you know that for PV, after your application is accepted, it’s either u or ur hubby can take turn to do the work to accumulate the 40 hours. my hubby told me this, so it’s good right? at least can share the "load" haaa… and no only one person have to use his/her leave only

        Yes.. you are right... Both your hubby and yourself can take turn to perform PV duties to accumulate the 40 hours. I'm a PV at JWPS and occasionally my hubby took leave to perform ad-hoc duties whereas i will be concentrating on daily morning gate duty. I've completed more than 40 hours 2 months back, now only waiting for Phase 2B registration for my DD this coming July. πŸ˜‰

              I did my PV interview this morning!! LOL found it more unnerving than an actual work interview


              Principal was really nice where she asked to go for P2C and she will place me on waitlist if it is unsuccessful. I can start PV for my DD2 after Aug based on the outcome, if ballot is successful -> don’t need to PV.

              Apparently Qifa received quite a number of applications for PV due to the unexpected balloting last year. it was a session of why is Qifa your choice of sch, what are you looking from it. had a brief of how the school is and if such a culture is adaptable to the parent. There were more to it but wow, it was really an eye opener to such things

                I have received an email from the sch stating:


                We would like to welcome you on board our vibrant group of PSG. I will email you the links, FB page as well as upcoming events TPS has for year 2011 on a separate email. All emails will come from [email protected] which is our generic email address.

                Do let me know the days and time you are available to volunteer so that I can check on the school prog available for you to start clocking the 40 hours.\"

                Does it means I dont need to go thru the interview? If yes.. wow.. i am much relieve.. :rahrah:

                  mambobb, not sure about that...but lucky you!! πŸ˜„


                  for Qifa, the influx of PV could have caused the interview process lol but it is rather clear that if you let them know your area of work, they will explore you to assist in other PV items like IT related stuff

                      can only comment now after I heard the other parent asking,

                      the 40 hours can be split between both parents and you can ask them for their list of events for the year where they will require assistance in

                        Esp when the PV task(s) requested is gender-specific... pretty sexist.. but LPPL... have to follow the school's request...
