Can PR become Community Leader also?

[friendship]

Depends on how wise the P of the school. Our GRC has 2 neighbourhoods schools do balloting every year.

One sch is under clan/religious, the other sch is under MOE.

Under clan/religious sch, the P has to limit the no. of PVs in the school. There are only about 10 PVs in this school. This school takes in good quality PVs such as IT and those who have money that able to sponsor overseas trips for the students.

Whereas under MOE school, the P opens up PV applications up to 20. The PVs are doing some work like controlling traffic, zebra crossing, etc.

Definitely can try every sort of opportunity. Even Phase2B do ballotting, let it be. Yours means yours.

Hi

Do you suggest that when I apply to be observer at the cc that I disclose to the CC and NC people that my intention is to get my child in primary school?
The lady at the PA hotline suggest I do that cos she thinks the NC might help me by speeding up the promotion to EM.
But I’m worried I may get black marked for this agenda.

What do you guys think?

[cherrygal]

Suggest you keep quiet about it. Most of those who hold immense power at RCs/NCs are old people who only want self-sacrificing volunteers with no hidden agendas. Got it straight from the horse's mouth so I know.


Why would someone with young kids want to spend weeknights and weekends doing stuff at the void decks when their kids need them more? Isn't it obvious that pple with young kids who join grassroots all have an agenda? Those old pple with grown-up kids just dun understand. :slapshead:

And if you want to go this route, you need to like menial tasks such as tying balloons to void deck pillars, being called to usher guests at RC dinners etc during your supposed family time.

PV at the school is a better option, really...

[tigerlily]

this grassroots route is my plan B

as the PV i apply all to the better schools. worried won’t get selected.
if i can get selected, and dunno by 2014, will the school i get selected to do pv at, will it need balloting at <1km…
thinking of other options to guarantee a method to avoid balloting

Btw just to let u know that u r under 1-2km away from NHPS.
Last year, there is balloting for 1-2km. Maybe this year or in future, it may ballot with in 1km.

Think twice.
