        PH is popular and affiliated to a church. P2B is usually over-subscribed ( about 2:1 this year). Think again if you want to do PV.

            I guess you are asking about Alexandra Primary? If it is important for you that your child enters this school, then I suggest you volunteer to secure a spot. However, its still 40 hours of your time. If you stay within 1 km, then you dont need to I feel. Otherwise, if its really a desirable school for you, then go for it. Good luck.


            Sorry can I check Alexandra primary school ballot 1-2km is for sc or pr? Frz of mine is stay >2km sc

            Ok I got the answer is 1-2km

                  Just went to Pei Chun webiste to download the application form for PV, and the volunteering hours have ballooned to 80! Am very concerned if I can fulfill the hours within one year and may have to do volunteering on my own without spouse. Has anyone done PV for Pei Chun before? What areas does the school prefer? Are the duties done over a period of 1 or 2 hours each time? Thanks!

                    80 hrs now !! 😓

                    we are doing for PCPS now, they have weekly CCA 1-2 hours type event, these are usually in the afternoon 1-3 pm type ... terrible for working parents.

                    Their anniversary concert rehersal, moving musical instruments, make up etc, clocked 20 hours anniversary concert related alone.

                    Children day carnival 10 hrs, Math trail about 6 hrs twice.

                    We will hit 58 hrs by mid Oct !! almost there .... 😄 :xedfingers:
                    But having said, this is achieved by grabbing almost every single actitivies. We provided office email address so that we get email first time and reply immediately.

                    Good Luck, if they want 80hrs they should have job for 80 hrs.

                      Thanks Aloyboy! Your year 60hours?? So lucky..I'm half-hoping I don't get selected. They are actually dissuading working parents from signing up. Stress...
