yes, by that, i meant my days as a parent volunteer has started!
we actually registered to be PV for 2 schools end of last year! talk about being kiasu.
but im glad we did.
for one of them rejected me (which is a blessings in disguise, more on that later) and the other accepted me by means of first come first serve basis. *sweat*
and we waited with bated breath (ok, only me. the nonchalent husband cannot be more carefree. tsk) for the results to be out this may.
and the results decided our next course of action!
PV activities to start from July onwards - with the first session to help out being the P1 registration for 2012!
talk about irony.
and so, i took a day off to help out with Phase 2C registration for my school of choice today.
the registration only lasted for half a day or more but i learnt quite a fair bit of stuff from other PVs who are obviously more in the know than me.
so the stats show that for 2012 registration, those who are in Phase 2B (aka grassroots/PVs like us) all got in for this school.
WHERAS those in the school which rejected me needs balloting even for within 1km!
hence, i said it may be a blessings in disguise to be rejected.
i cannot imagine putting in >40hrs of work and within 1km to the school STILL needs to go through the balloting process. it will be such a heart-stopping process!
and, just realised that Phase 2C is over-subscribed by almost 2 times for the school of choice too. *gulp*
now the husband is finally convinced that PV is the way to go for us....
anyway, today's activity has been pretty interesting.
interacting with other parents and understanding how does the registration process go.
now i know, birth cert, parents' IC and vaccine cert is a must for registration. LOL.
ok, next up.
P1 orientationin Nov with the new parents and kids for 2013!
its gonna be fun! :)
dont you think P1 kids are the most adorable! with their super loose clothings on them and so short! LOL.
i hope to make the PV process an entertaining and educating one, nevertheless.
