    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.

Few of us have traveled the surrounding countryside, a wedge of land carved by the rivers Don and Dee, which form a sideways V to the north and south of the city. The region has none of the haggis-ancl-bagpipe tour­ ist trappings of the Northern Highlands, no peekaboo prehistoric monsters in its lochs, and not even much claim to the greatest pages of Scottish history. But what it does have-aside from an unspoiJ ed natural beauty all its own-is a remarkable concentra­ ti on of castl es, many in the baronial style unique to Scotland. In fa ct, so many are clustered near the banks of the Dee that the area is known as the Royal Deeside. Even on a misty day, the hills and fields of the Deeside and Donside are a brilliant green, like The Wizard of Oz's Emeralcl City. Other colors do dot the landscape-gold broom growing wild along the roads ide, gray granite cottages, black and white cows and sheep- but they only make the gl·een look greener. It would be dazzling if it weren't also so sleepy.

This year we have had the added excitement of a School Inspection from Education Scotland, the creation of our very own school song and the Head Teacher attending the Royal Garden Party in Edinburgh, all adding to the fun of a final term in the school academic year! The inspectors spoke highly of Fishermoss School and we can anticipate a very positive report when it is issued in August. We have truly been blessed with wonderful weather this term and were delighted to be able to hold our Sports Day and our Family Picnic this year. The family picnic, in particular, was a wonderful happy Fishermoss Family occasion with not a cloud in the sky. Thank you to all who were able to join us for both these events. Well done to all our medallists from Sports Day and thank you to our Parent Staff Council for covering the costs of these. Our Nursery Sports also enjoyed a dry day and thank you to parents and family members who were able to come along to support them all. We have lots of little keen athletes in our Nursery. We also enjoyed a dry, though misty evening, for our Family Walk and had 43 walkers attend this year. Thank you to ASDA for supplying the oranges for refreshments. Thank you to all who attended our End of Term Service.
