Hi mommies,

I'm new in this thread.
Did anyone of you apply PV at Nanyang Pri and called up to go for interview?
I've applied mine early this yr and Mrs Ong said will notify us end of the yr?
Should I stay hopeful?
Would appreciate your advises...

Hi gail5775,

I also send my PV application to Nanyang for my DD2 that born in 2007.
Maybe we r not selected for the interview so they nv notify us... :sad:

Maybe u want to call them?

We have applied for NYPS 2 years ago for my ds. We have a good referee, someone who knows the school senior management. With that, we were granted an interview. During the interview, we were asked if we mind being traffic controllers once or twice a week under rain or shine. We did not mind at all but we were not accepted as PV. We concluded that we have failed due to two reasons: 1) we are > 2km 2) competition is really stiff as even alumni from NYGH were applying to be PV.

I have a good friend who was successul in doing PV and getting her dragon year ds into NYPS in 2007. She has a good referee then and she was accepted as PV. She clocked her 80 PV hours by being a traffic controller in her office attire at 1pm once or twice a week under rain or shine. Her sacrifice was more than the 80 hours spent. It was also her sacrifice of lunch hour plus taxi fare to and from her office at Shenton Way.

All the best in your application!

My understanding is that alumni from NYGH is not allowed to apply under phase 2A.

Hi phtthp,

Because they never study from NYPS.
NYGH is a secondary school.

oic ... so they come from Nanyang Secondary.


Thank you very much for kind info, mummy of 3
