Controversial Olympians

The onset of the term 3 has brought about a real buzz with the Olympics. We are exploring the success stories, the examples of inspiration, hope and sportsmanship. A fantastic opportunity for the sporting elite to display their talents on a world stage. We have looked in detail at all the successes of Lisa Carrington, Usain Bolt and Valerie Adams, but with many heroes comes the villains.

The cheats, the stories of greed, the acts of a cunning nature. Room 6 have explored the history of those that attempt to win at all costs. Lets hope this Rio games proves to be a 'clean' Olympics, unlike many that have gone before.

The motorised bikes, the Spanish blind football team, the cheating fencer, the marathon runner that hopped in a taxi or the two athletes that stood up for their rights. All these stories have to read to be believed, so please have a look at our group slideshow, there's some very entertaining stories.
