What is POD?
We have a very dedicated and committed group of parents in our ‘Parents of Drumhillery’ POD group.
The group was formed in September 2012 and has since gone from strength to strength. In these days of stringent educational cutbacks we are delighted to see the enthusiasm of parents in financially assisting our school.
However the group also strongly feels that fund raising is not the only reason for its existence. Generating a sense of community spirit and involvement is also key and we have been greatly encouraged by the attendance of local people at each event organised to date.

After a 2 year absence due to Covid we're delighted to have our Parents of Drumhillery Group up and running again. Office Bearers were elected at the recent AGM as follows:

We were absolutely delighted at the turnout to our Christmas Craft Fair on 24 November 2022. The amazing amount of £1950.60 was raised and as a result we are delighted to have been able to order a new Novotouch Interactive Whiteboard for the P5 classroom. Thank you for your generosity and support. I would also like to thank our POD group who have worked so hard during the past weeks to organise the event. Our school is privileged to have such a dedicated group of individuals who give tirelessly of their time to support Drumhillery PS. We appreciate your effort and hard work.
We hope to purchase the final Interactive Whiteboard for the P3/4 classroom before the end of the academic year.
