Headmaster ‘exterminated’ by dalek for Haiti! - 12/2/10

Published: 12 February, 2010

Even though pupils at Plymouth College Preparatory School met the dalek's demands to donate money to the Haiti appeal, Headmaster, Chris Gatherer, still ended up being 'exterminated'!

The surprise visit by Dr Who's arch enemy was the Prep School's third activity to raise money for the Haiti appeal, which now stands at just over £850 - the children have previously held a toy sale, raffle and name the teddy competition.

Mr Gatherer is obviously a very popular Headmaster as nearly £550 was raised to save him from a fate worse than death (although the children did have the incentive of having their photos taken with the dalek as well).  However the dalek, aka Rev Karl Freeman of St Emmanuel Church, showed no mercy and decided to 'exterminate' Mr Gatherer anyway much to the delight of the children. 

"I think this was definitely one of the highlights of the term so far", said Headmaster, Chris Gatherer.  "Being 'exterminated' was a first for me but on a more serious note, I am really proud of the children for all their efforts in raising so much money for the Haiti appeal."
