Chilcote Summer concerts
On Monday 20th May and Tuesday 21st May, over 120 children performed at our two annual Summer concerts. Both were well attended by large enthusiastic audiences and all the children performed confidently, showcasing their hard work over the past few months to their family and friends.
We are very proud of all our performers and would like to thank them for their hard work and enthusiasm, providing us with two very enjoyable evenings.
Thank you very much to our talented peripataetic music service teachers who have taught and encouraged the children all year. Our children have made great progress, through the hard work of Mrs Mulenga, Mr Fisher, Miss Hobbs, Mr Chamberlain and Mr Singh.

Chilcote boys Vs Wheelers Lane
On Tuesday 21st May, the Chilcote boys' football team played their final league fixture against Wheelers Lane school at Yardley Wood playing fields. The boys knew that if they drew or won the match then they would win the league. If they lost the match then Chilcote would be waiting for the final result between Wheelers Lane and Hall Green to see who won the league.
The game started as a cagey affair with neither team wanting to let the other team in. Chilcote were on top in the first half but Wheelers were dangerous on the break. During the half Chilcote had two great chances to score but unfortunately put the ball wide of the post on both occasions. Wheelers Lane had one great opportunity to score as well but Ryan made a last ditch interception to clear the ball before it went over the goal line.
In the second half, Chilcote tried their best to find a goal but their final pass just would not come off and when it did the Wheelers Lane goalkeeper was always in the right place to make the save. Wheelers were having some chances of their own and Chilcote had Benjy to thank for pulling off an outstanding save when the Wheeler's winger was through on goal. Devastatingly, just five minutes from the end Chilcote conceded a goal. The ball got played over the top and the Wheeler's winger got to the ball at the same time as Chilcote's keeper and the ball bobbled back to him to roll into the empty net. Chilcote tried to find an equaliser, which on the balance of play they deserved but couldn't. The final score was 1v0 to Wheelers Lane.
Unfortunately this result meant that Chilcote had to wait forn the outcome of the Wheelers Lane Vs Hall Green fixture to see if they had managed to win the league on goal difference.
The result is now in and Wheelers Lane beat Hall Green 8v2. Fortunately for Chilcote this wasn't enough goals to take top spot away from Chilcote! An incredible season has ended with the boys finishing in the top South Birmingham league in first place on goal difference. Mr Cross and I are extremely proud of all of the boys and what they have achieved this year. We both are so pleased that the boys have finally got soemthing to show for all of their efforts! Well done to all for their fantastic season!!!

Chilcote Girls Vs Our Lady of Lourdes
On Thursday 16th May, the Chilcote girls' football team played their final league fixture against Our Lady of Lourdes at Yardley Wood playing fields.
The game started as a very even contest. Chilcote gradually got on top and had more chances without really working the goalkeeper. Near the end of the half, Chilcote were awarded a penalty for handball. Unfortunately for Chilcote, the penalty was saved not once, not twice but three times. Shortly afterwards, Chilcote had another good chance to score but again hit the ball straight at the goalkeeper. The score at half time was 0v0.
In the second half, the contest was more even and Our Lady of Lourdes had as many chances as Chilcote. Both teams huffed and puffed but could not find a way past either goalkeeper. The game ended in a 0v0 draw.
A great effort by the girls in an excellent season where they have all made lots of progress. Well done girls!!!

Boys' HMS Cup final Vs Boldmere School
On Tuesday 7th May 2019 the Chilcote Boys' football team played in the school's first ever HMS Cup Final against Boldmere School at Bodymoor Heath (Aston Villa's training ground)! Out of nearly 300 Birmingham schools just to get to the final was an incredible achievement.
The first half started and Boldmere came out of the blocks flying. They immediately put Chilcote under pressure and won a couple of corners in a row. Chilcote had a couple of breaks but for the most part were penned into their own half. Halfway through the first half Boldmere were awarded a free-kick just outside the penalty area. Boldmere's captain stepped up and curled the ball into the top corner to give them the lead. The first half continued in the same fashion with Boldmere having a lot of the ball but Chilcote occasionally breaking. On one such break they won a free-kick of their own right on the edge of the box but Ben's shot just went past the far post from a tight angle. At half time the score was 1v0 to Boldmere.
In the second half Chilcote stepped up their game and played better. Unfortunately, the Boldmere captain was an excellent player and twice in quick succession he ran through the middle of the pitch shrugging off all challengers and smashed the ball into the bottom corner on both occasions. Then, not long after Boldmere scored their fourth after a shot deflected to their striker who put the ball home. Chilcote did not give up and they did not let their heads go down. In fact after the fourth goal went in they had their best period of play in the match. They won a few corners and from one such corner the ball struck Etik's knee and flew into the net to make it 4v1. Chilcote huffed and puffed after that but couldn't find a way past the excellent Boldmere midfield and defence. The game ended 4v1 to Boldmere.
Mr Cross and I (Mr Haycock) would like to say how proud we are of the boys and what they have achieved this year. Just to get to this final is an amazing achievement! Also, we would like to thank all of the staff, parents and family members who came to support the boys in the once in a lifetime match!
