Whilst we look forward to Christmas, and reflect on the many activities that have taken place in the village over the past three months, this edition is also tinged with sadness at the loss of two very respected and loved members of our community—Lorraine MacPherson and Mary Clark. Both are remembered in words and photos on pages 14- 16. These tributes have been compiled with the help of their families, friends and colleagues. But there are happier stories to celebrate as well—the success of the Youth Club, teenagers who are spreading their wings and whose exploits are recorded on page 3, the continued success of Wee Bogees, Strathspey Winds, TOMS and the involvement of the school in activities led by our RSPB Ranger—and of course we await with anticipation the Brigobroon production by Showboaters. There has been a lot happening to the infrastructure of the village—a new gallery has opened (sponsors of this edition), the new waste water treatment plant is currently being installed and underground electricity cables have been laid. Some information on change within the wider area has been omitted, due to lack of space, but it has been well covered in the local press. As always, there is particular focus on the people who contribute towards making the village such a vibrant place to live in and to visit. Our next BOG Standard will look different, in that it will be published in full colour. This is being launched as a trial during 2015, as the printing will obviously cost more. However, we are well supported by local businesses who faithfully advertise with us, so we hope that the income generated will cover our additional costs. It will be well worth a try, and will greatly enhance the reproduction of photos and other artwork. It only remains to wish everyone a very Happy Christmas and a prosperous New Year, on behalf of the Community Council and all Jackie Wilson, Editor involved in the production and distribution of the BOG Standard. Email: [email protected] 01479 831056 BOG Standard is published by the Community Council, which appoints the Editor and underwrites the costs not covered by advertising. Articles published express the views of the authors and not the Council or Editor, unless otherwise stated. Boat of Garten Waste Water Treatment Works - Update The Boat of Garten WWTW Construction Team would like to thank all the local residents for their patience during the works being carried out at Boat of Garten. We would like to especially thank those directly affected by the works and those in the neighbouring properties. We are currently programmed to complete works on the main site in June next year. The majority of the heavy civil installation is complete New Tank arrives and we are moving onto electrical and mechanical installation. (Photos by Alison Grant) The Sewer upsizing works has proved particularly challenging. How- ever the permanent reinstatement was completed on Nethybridge Road on the 7th of November 2014. There is still a section of permanent reinstatement at the bridge directly in front of the site entrance. This will be permanently reinstated in the new year with the remaining section of sewer upsizing on Drumuillie Road. Work has commenced on Drumuillie Road and continues into the new year. We expect to complete the final reinstatement in January (weather permitting). The road will be temporarily in-filled over the Christmas period to minimise disruption.

Four questions provided the framework for the study: (1) How do teachers' perceptions of themselves as writers influence their writing instruction? (2) How do teachers at different grade levels iniement process writing instruction? (3) What institutional and contextual factors limit and/or encourage the implementation of a process writing instruction? and (4) How do teachers change in attitude, behavior, and teaching approaches as a result of using this innovation? Subjects, four elementary grade teachers in rural northeastern Ohio schools, were chosen from participants in a summer workshop on the process approach who had-been nominated by their principals as outstanding writing teachers. Subjects were observed in their classrooms, and they completed workshop documents, questionnaires, and reflective logs during the 8-week duration of the study. Results indicated that teachers' individual ways of approaching a writing task influence how they instruct students to approach such tasks, and those aspects of the process which are easier to implement receive the most attention.

This Handbook reflects the way the school usually runs but does not cover all of the changes that we have made because of the pandemic. Our arrangements have changed in many ways this session, and may well change again, depending on how the pandemic develops. For the most up-to-date information about any aspect of the work of the school, please make contact and we will be able to tell you about our current arrangements. For the latest information about how the pandemic affects children, young people and families across Scotland, please visit the Scottish Government website, which has helpful information about Coronavirus and its impact on education and children. There have been changes to the way the Scottish Qualifications Authority (SQA) is planning to provide certification for young people in the Senior Phase. School staff are currently working on changes to course content and approaches to assessment, further information can be found on the SQA website www.sqa.org.uk which includes a section of advice for candidates and families.

Executive Summary Capercaillie are one of Scotland’s iconic bird species, synonymous with the Cairngorms and its forests. Their conservation is one of the central challenges in the Cairngorms National Park, and in turn their status in the Cairngorms is critical to enabling their future expansion across other parts of Scotland. In 2013 Cairngorms Nature partners started work on the Capercaillie Framework for the Cairngorms National Park. Led by the Cairngorms National Park Authority with a multiple partner project team, the core purpose of this work is to bring together data and knowledge about management measures so that future management can be deployed in a more co-ordinated way at National Park scale, and within that at a Strathspey scale. The Framework provides a set of working data, analysis and recommendations that will inform implementation across a wide spectrum of work, from habitat and species management, to recreation management and development planning. Given the complex set of factors affecting capercaillie populations, the framework is intended to help ensure these measures are working in combination to the best effect.
