As you will be aware, the Director of Education Laurence Findlay issued a letter regarding the release of Provisional Grades to pupils by Wednesday 23rd June and we are confident we will meet that deadline. Here is the letter from Mr Findlay: Dear Parent/Carer, National Qualifications 2021 Further to my letter dated 1 April 2021, and as we move toward the latter stages of assessment evidence gathering under the SQA Alternative Certificate Model, I wish to provide you with an update regarding the remaining weeks. Firstly, I am pleased to report that Aberdeenshire received extremely positive feedback on the manner in which our processes have been developed and implemented. This scrutiny activity was undertaken by Education Scotland in their National Review of the implementation of the Alternative Certificate Model. Publication of this report by Education Scotland is expected shortly. Throughout this term, while assessment evidence gathering has been ongoing, young people will have been kept informed of their progress by their teachers through learning conversations. Provisional grades based on demonstrated attainment remain subject to the completion of the relevant quality assurance processes both within and between schools which will continue into June. Once the process and all stages of determining Provisional Grades is complete, young people will be provided by their school with a collation of the grades being submitted to the SQA.

    Date: Issue: Braemar – Additional /Alternative Housing Land at Braemar, Corriemulzie and Inverey Objector(s): The Proprietors of Mar Centre Objection ref(s): 394a Reporter Mr Hugh Begg Procedure Informal Hearing 1.0 Overview 1.1 This statement sets out the CNPA’s respon se to objections raised by The Proprietors of Mar Centre. The objections promote the inclusion of additional housing land at Braemar . The settlement boundary for Braemar should be flexible. The objections also suggest that developme nt opportunities exist at Corriemulzie and Inverey. This statement advises that the issue of additional allocations was not raised at the Deposit stage and that sites allocated in Braemar relate to existing allocated sites in the adopted Aberdeenshire L ocal Plan, where planning permissions exist or have Planning Committee approval. N o further allocations are justified in terms of the current housing needs established for Braemar. Other policies in the CNP Local Plan will be used to assess any forthcomi ng housing proposals for other sites in the area includin g Corriemulzie and Inverey. This statement does not recommend any further modification s. 2.0 Provision of Local Plan 2.1 The Cairngorms National Park Local Plan (Deposit) July 2007 (C D6.11 ) identifie d three housing sites within the Braemar settlement envelope – BM/H1, H2 and H3 .

It has a colourful history according to the following account (From ‘Scottish Fiddle Club of Colorado Some Perspectives on Scottish Fiddling’) relating to the eighteenth century: "An almost invariable accompaniment of certain of the fairs was the occurrence of party fights, or personal encounters between rustic athletes fond of testing their physical prowess. These encounters, which ordinarily took place about the close of the fair, were sufficiently brutal in character, the combatants often mercilessly belabouring each other with cudgels.

    THE PINNING STONES Culture and community in Aberdeenshire When traditional rubble stone masonry walls were originally constructed it was common practice to use a variety of small stones, called pinnings, to make the larger stones secure in the wall. This gave rubble walls distinctively varied appearances across the country depend- ing upon what local practices and materials were used.

  • The Cairngorm Club Journal 111, 2015
    246 The Mar Estate Editor's note: Graham Ewen, the late Honorary President of the Club, has written 9 articles for the Journal on the history of the Mar Estate. This is the final one, on the Corriemulzie Estate. After he started to write this article he became ill and died, but his long-time collaborator on the research of the Duff House Papers, Eddie Martin, has undertaken the task of completing the article. Corriemulzie Eddie Martin and Graham Ewen The precise boundaries of the Corriemulzie Estate are difficult to identify beyond the fact that they were located on the road from Braemar to Inverey, bounded by Auchendryne Estate to the east and Inverey Estate to the west. In a Charter dated 28 September 1632, granted by John, Earl of Mar to an Alister Mackenzie, it is described as the town and lands of Corriemulzie, with the pendicle called Wester Arderg extending to four oxgates, the town and lands of Craggan extending to two oxgates and the shielings of Reflinchwood, Inveraltlat and Corronraw which were probably on the east side of Glen Ey. An oxgate varies in area and averages about 13 acres. The southern march was probably the ridge of Creag an Fhithich or, using the archaic phrase for a ridge, 'where wind and weather shears'. The northern march of the Estate is even more difficult to define as Craggan is on the north side of the river Dee and one would have expected the river itself to be the natural boundary, (Fig. 1). After much litigation between Farquharson of Inverey, who now owned Corriemulzie, and the Earl of Fife, who now owned the Mackenzie of Dalmore Estate, Craggan was ceded to Thethe Earl followin Cairngormg an exchange of grazing right Clubs and the river became the northern march.

Description This walk, in an elongated figure of eight, provides a range of country and riverside environments to enjoy in scenic Deeside. The walk starts and finishes at the historic ruin of the Church of St Mary in Kincardine O’Neil, the oldest village on Deeside. The present structure dates back to the 14thC but it is believed to have been a place of Christian worship from the 6thC. This walking route takes in a number of old roads, starting with Gallowhill Road, its purpose deriving from Medieval times when every feudal baron was required to erect a gibbet (gallows) for the execution of male criminals, and sink a well or pit, for the drowning of females! Soon after, the route follows a short section of the Old Deeside Road, now a farm track, which dates to before the great agricultural improvements that started in the 1700's.
