Good morning
Long time didnt come in. How is everyone? Progress on Jaret, he is starting to walk a few steps by himself, still can't talk but can be really bossy. He will point and make noise until he get wat he wants.
Felicia, Soyabean, *Hi-5*
I was also looking into the current P1 registration and my my boy is just 4 yrs old. Seems the school opposite my place very popular.
Calling for Angel,
U know what are the type of Parent Volunteering Work school look for? I heard that PV needs min 40hours and should start when kiddo is at K1. Do you know about the PV? Dunno whether I am super kiasu or not...

<font color="aa00aa">nss,
PV will need to start when your kid is 4yrs old, 2 yrs before registration of P1.
You can go to ur desire school website and see what kind of volunteer work they offer. I think diff school hv diff standard. It wud be better for you to call them directly. As far as i know most school start to accept PV during every yr June but there're some will start taking in Jan.
When u stay?</font>

Felicia, I stay at Yew Tee. Still considering whether to PV. The most, get ah boy to take school bus.*evil grin*
It is very difficult to get him to wake up every morning and it will be nice to get him into the nearest school... Then also dun have to worry for Jaret.
Leng Leng, next year Athena going P1? How is the registration?
Warrior, give a few more months. When the novelty of walking wears off, she probably will ask you to carry instead.

<font color="aa00aa">Ellysia,
I think most school accept PV 2 yrs before. If you only do a yr before, the vacancy might be full oredy. Anyhow, all depend on the school itself.
Some school PV will require to do librarian jobs, traffic jobs, gardening, etc. Diff sch, diff requirement.
Btw, just to share some info since we talk about this P1. If you're aiming for your kids to enrol into top school like Maha bodhi, Chong Fu, Raffles, etc especially those had clan related, you might want to consider joining the clan 4yrs before the registration. Coz some clan will only offer the 'privilege' letter to older clan member.</font>

Soyabean, heehee, me also can only fit in Phase2C. If want to go my hb old school, my kiddo needs to travel all the way to Bishan. When my hb suggested this, I told him he is 'siao'
Angel, no need to change address. Think you can just get a statutory declaration that your mum taking care of your kid. Read somewhere in the MOE website.
