phtthp:

my friend asked - can she still join grassroot in time for her child to enter P1 2014 - CHIJ St Nicholas, under phase 2B ?


minimum need to join how many years, need to reach what level then can receive 2B letter of authorization from grassroot ? Thanks for info!

Possible but very difficult to meet the criteria in time for registration under P2B. Pls ask your friend to read previous threads. To be safe, min. is 2 years with min. 1 year as EM to ensure P2B privilege. It largely also depends on one's commitment and active level. If can't commit time and effort, better don't try and waste everyone's time.

Better to let someone else who can commit be a EM.... can do more for the community.

i’m thinking of going through this route so say, my kid is born in 2009. He will register at 6 years old 2015. (Entering Primary1 at 2016).


So timeline goes:
2011-2012 -> Now is Oct. 2 months left for application paperwork processing.
2012-2013 -> Observer at RC/NC (1 year)
2013-2014 -> Executive Member (1 year) - hopefully lah!
2014-mid2015 -> Preparation of letter & Application date !

wow if the above calculation is correct, doesnt that mean i have to submit my application now?

also, my choice of school is under AMK GRC. I’m currently staying at Marine Parade GRC. Does that mean i should move house now?

Yes, you will need to move. As a RC/NC EM, you need to be staying in that GRC. Unless you are a EM for the CCMC and CCC at AMK GRC, then no need to move. However, getting into CCMC or CCC is not easy.

Sorry to be asking such a fundamental/stupid question but how can we find out which schools belong to our GRC now? MOE used to have it on their website but now there seems to only be a list by planning area, not GRC. I used to also key in the postal code of the school on the PA website but that’s kind of a reverse search method, is there an easier way?

Can anybody help with this question ? I live within the Chengsan-seletar neighbourhood committee, will becoming an active grassroot leader qualify me for Rosyth phase2b? Chengsan-seletar GRC is under the AMK GRC.

Kindly advise pls? tks

Hi, can somebody help me to clarify a few issues:

1) if I have a property rented out in GRC A but am currently staying GRC B, can I apply to serve in GRC A?
2) RC/NC members can enjoy P2B only in the GRC that they serve but CCMC/CDC/CCC members can enjoy for all GRCs?
3) YEC and WEC members can’t be recognized as executive member?
4) how can we get into CCMC/CDC/CCC?
5) the address that the endorsement letter shows, is it based on IC or any that we may fill in? N if change address along the way, will it shows the new address or the old one when first joined?

Thanks so much for helping!!

Sorry, 2 more questions:

1) if manage to be a CDC member, can enjoy P2B for all schools, or only those schools in the GRCs under that particular CDC?
2) can a CDC volunteer possibly become an executive member?

Thanks again

If become CDC EM, you will be under phase 2B for all the GRCs under the CDC.

CDC members are usually appointed by the advisor of the CDC. Not easy to get in.

Thanks alot OrangeBelt!

Do you know if volunteers to CDC can become executive members?
