All About Parent Volunteers (PV)

[autumn82]

KP:

Under the PV scheme, once selected and accepted by school, both parents are automatically included for contribution to the 40hours. Some school activities like cooking class will prefer ladies PV, while outdoor like camping will see more guy PV..

In my case, only myself attended the PV selection interview conducted by school.
When I was told of the positive interview outcome, both parents are included in the school PV namelist

Not always true, some schools allow, some don't.

Seems like every sch has it own stuffs... Heh.

Anyone can comment on Marymount Convent??

[oneheart]

those who did PV, just wondering how the sch allocate the assignments and will there be enough to ensure completion or required hours?

It really depends on the school. I believe generally if you have done a reasonable chunk of time, they will find some way to help you complete the requisite hours.

Autumn82, do note Marymount did conduct balloting under phase 2C for those staying out of 2km in year 2006 (dragon bb cohort).


Oneheart, yes it really depend on individual schools. For mine, the PVG will email all parents whenever they have any assignments. So whoever interested will respond to the email. Generally quite easy to clock the 40 hrs, no problem.

er ... Nanyang is not under SHHK. SHHK primary schools are Ai Tong, Tao Nan, Chongfu, Nan Chiau and Kong Hwa

Different Schools assign different type of duties for PV.

Go to this website http://www.emailmeform.com/contact_webmaster_fid-276712.html

The list of duties is listed in the form. It will likely help your chance of being selected if you can specify some specialised skills other than those listed.

I would advise you to register early also. NYPS need min 80 hours versus MOE min of 40 hours.

Hi joyceling,


ya…St Hilda actually would not call u if u are not selected. But me and hubby die die want a black & white answer…lol…hence wrote to sch…sch wrote to the Parent Support Group chairwoman…and then she replied lor…said not shortlisted…& said they dun usually write to reply if you are not shortlisted…they take it, you would know if you did not hear from them. To me, no matter what, accept or rejected, I feel it is only right and polite for them to reply! they already had a briefing in early Jul for those selected parents. your kid need to register next yr for P1?

see this yr Phrase 2C for St Hilda…me do not dare to try at all already! too risky!
