On Thursday last week Year 8 English students had the opportunity to watch a live performance of ‘Flowers For Algernon’, a science-fiction short story they have been studying. 💐 Written by Daniel Keyes, the story centres on a developmentally disabled man who is given the opportunity to undergo a surgical procedure to increase his mental intelligence. The students said they found the play very entertaining and it was interesting to see their English unit looking at growth being explored through the main character’s intellectual and emotional journey.
