Inverurie page 8 Dyce page 10 Aberdeen page 12 Portlethen page 14 Stonehaven page 16 Laurencekirk page 18 Get about Aberdeen City and Shire by rail Take the train – it’s easy! There are frequent train services linking Aberdeen with Huntly, Insch, Inverurie, Dyce (bus link to airport), Portlethen, Stonehaven and Laurencekirk. If you have a daily commuter drive to Aberdeen, why not leave your car behind, beat congestion and give the train a go? Convenient bus links There is a wide network of buses to get you to and from stations. Keep fit with public transport Combine walking or cycling with your train journey - it’s healthy and helps the environment. You’ll feel fitter, and play your part in fighting climate change. Car park, car share or taxi If you need to take your car, why not park at the station and relax by train? There’s an excellent Aberdeen bus network. And for shoppers, shopping centres and Union Street are a short walk from Aberdeen station. Car share’s a great option to cut petrol costs, or use taxi links to get to the station. Leave the car at home or just live without one With global warming a worrying reality, it’s possible for many of us to use the car less, or not have a car at all. Public transport is a realistic alternative, whether travelling to work in Aberdeenshire, or journeys further afield to Inverness, Edinburgh, Glasgow, London…..and even Paris. Just the ticket Season tickets offer good value for daily travellers. It’s worth booking in advance for longer journeys, to get the best bargains. You can add Aberdeen PlusBus (www.plusbus.info) to train tickets for travelling in the Aberdeen area, or combined rail and bus tickets to places like Aboyne and Westhill. Disabled traveller access and assistance Travel by train is easy for people with disabilities. If you need assistance, book it at least 24 hours in advance by contacting ScotRail on 0800 912 2 901. Check before you travel There’s plenty of information available to plan your journey, such as the National Rail website www.nationalrail.co.uk (tel 08457 48 49 50) for train times – it’s always worth checking before you travel, for any updates to what’s in this guide. You can buy train tickets online, have them sent to you, or pick them up at the station. And for bus and rail information, the Traveline website www.traveline.org.uk (tel 0871 200 22 33) gives up to date times.

  • Education & Children's Services Proposal
    Education and Children’s Services EDUCATION & CHILDREN’S SERVICES PROPOSAL DOCUMENT: AUGUST 2015 ABERDEENSHIRE SCHOOLS ENHANCED PROVISION A) THE RELOCATION OF NEWTONHILL SCHOOL ENHANCED PROVISION CENTRE TO PORTLETHEN SCHOOL, PORTLETHEN AND B) THE ESTABLISHMENT OF AN ENHANCED PROVISION CENTRE AT MILL O’ FOREST SCHOOL, STONEHAVEN 1 Proposal for Statutory Consultation A) THE RELOCATION OF NEWTONHILL SCHOOL ENHANCED PROVISION CENTRE TO PORTLETHEN SCHOOL, PORTLETHEN AND B) THE ESTABLISHMENT OF AN ENHANCED PROVISION CENTRE AT MILL O’ FOREST SCHOOL, STONEHAVEN SUMMARY PROPOSAL Enhanced provision across Aberdeenshire has been reviewed and a nine area model is currently being implemented during 2014-16. (See pages 9-11 Section 4 Educational Benefits Statement 4.6.1 – 4.6.4) Each cluster will have a primary and a secondary Enhanced Provision Centre and each Area will have a Community Resource Hub. The aim is to provide support for all learners in the local schools through universal and targeted support and to ensure that Enhanced Provision is located where the need is greatest. At present the Enhanced Provision Centre for the Portlethen and Stonehaven cluster is located at Newtonhill School, Newtonhill. It is proposed that the primary Enhanced Provision Centre at Newtonhill will be relocated to Portlethen Primary School where the need is greatest. The only remaining cluster without primary Enhanced Provision is Stonehaven and the proposal is to develop a new primary Enhanced Provision Centre at Mill O’ Forest School, Stonehaven. The new Enhanced Provision model aims to increase capacity at a school and cluster level for all learners to ensure greater consistency of, and equity of access to, an improved quality of provision across the authority.

Passion Sunday 2 From Peter When I visited Ethiopia a few years ago, I was surprised to find on arriving at my hotel in Addis Ababa that the grounds of the hotel were the scene of several wedding celebrations. The hotel was surrounded by a very large garden full of greenery and, as in many other parts of the world, it was used for the wedding photographs. Now, being Ethiopia, we are not talking about (relatively) well behaved groups of relatives being marshalled into formal groups.

  • Welcome to Aberdeen & Aberdeenshire
    WELCOME TO ABERDEEN & ABERDEENSHIRE www.visitabdn.com @visitabdn | #visitABDN Film locations on the coast ITINERARY With its vast mountainous landscapes and outstanding coastlines, quaint fishing villages and fairytale castles, this part of Scotland has inspired world-famous story tellers and filmmakers. We've pulled together a two day itinerary to help you make the most of your 'stage and screen' trip to Aberdeenshire: Portsoy - Whisky Galore! (2016) Portsoy is a popular village thanks to its vibrant trademark boat festival and picturesque 17th century harbour, but that's not all. In 2016, Whisky Galore! was filmed on location in Portsoy. The film tells the true story of an incident that took place on the island of Eriskay when the SS Politician ran aground with a cargo including 28,000 cases of malt whisky starring James Cosmo and Eddie Izzard. Pennan - Whisky Galore! (2016) & Local Hero (1983) Whisky Galore! also filmed along the coastline in Pennan too and this wasn't the first time Pennan has shot to fame. Local Hero starring Burt Lancaster and Peter Capaldi, tells the story of an American oil executive who is sent to a remote Scottish village to acquire the village to convert it into a refinery. The film was filmed in Pennan and Banff and the red phonebox is one of the most famous in the world and can still be found in Pennan. Slains Castle - The Crown (2016 - ) & Dracula (1897) No trip to Aberdeenshire would be complete for fans of the Netflix show The Crown without a trip to Slains Castle on the coast of Cruden Bay.
