St. Michael's P.S is situated in Finnis and enjoys strong links with our local parish of Dromara and Drumgooland.

The Parishes of Dromara and Drumgooland are two separate parishes in the Diocese of Dromore but have been working as a pastoral unit since August 2009.  Each parish retains its own autonomy, has its own parish council, is financially separate but they co-operate pastorally when required.  The two parishes are served by the one priest, Fr. Peter C. McNeill.

The Parish of Drumgooland was divided in 1784 into two parishes: Upper Drumgooland, often referred to as Leitrim, which had six townlands, and Lower Drumgooland, often referred to as Gargory, which had 13 townlands.  In 2010 a discussion began amongst parishioners in regard to the reunification of the parish, the disadvantages and advantages of such a proposal.  The decision was to be made by the parishioners and a poll was held at all masses on the weekend of 9th/10th April 2011.  The Bishop was asked to reunite the parishes and this was formally done by the Bishop, Dr. John McAreavey on 15th October 2011.

The Parish of Dromara had been served by the priests of Magheradroll from August 1999 until August 2009.
The parishes of Upper Drumgooland was served by Fr. Frank Lyons until his death in February 2009.  The parish of Lower Drumgooland was served by Archdeacon Liam Boyle until his retirement in August 2009.
