        Hi Parents,


        I’ve just received confirmation from Paya Lebar MGS that I’ve been accepted as PV. Was so looking forward to being accepted and now that I am, I feel worried.

        Being a working mother, I anticipate a lot of annual leaves needed to be taken in order for me to fulfill the 40 hours… So, was just wondering if anyone has any idea what should I be expecting (meaning assignments or tasks given by the school)?

          For me i took abt total of 11 days (include abt 5 Childcare leave) to complete my 40hrs of services in BPPS. Assignment that i took was mainly excursions, help out in festival, school IT and sports day.

            I only took 7 days of leave previously for PV. Most of the assignments I had were taking up 6 - 8 hours daily.

In this way, you will not have to be away from work for too many days. But many PV will think likewise and in the end, it will be competitive to bid for the slot. :lol:

                  I guessed the most tough is by Tao Nan School where need to visit 80 times being a Traffic Controller.


                  30 Min X 80 = 40 Hours.

                    yes, but \"guaranteed\" to be able to complete the required hours without the pain of \"fighting\" for assignments.

                        Does anyone know Rosyth sch still open registration for PV?

                        And if we stay only within 2km of Rosyth, should we not try PV at all? Since the school is so popular…
