The Steve Bernard Foundation in conjunction with the Parents Association of St Mark's Junior School today opened the long awaited long jump pit and run up at the Talbot Village school.
The pit was officially opened by members of the foundation at the primary school's annual sports day. Jacques Bernard took the first jump in the pit, closely followed by the newly crowned sports person of the year.
The opening marked the end of the foundation's longest running project. The school was earmarked for a donation as early as November 2005 when it was a recipient of donations received at Steve's funeral.
The school played a fundamental role in the young development of Stevie and the family felt it was approriate that the school should benefit from the fundraising done in Steve's name.
The foundation would like to thank staff and pupils at the school who have worked tirelessly to get to this point, in particular Claire Philips who suggested the pit and worked with us through to its completion.
