The following is a '''list of notable past pupils of [[Sydney Grammar School]]''' (SGS). Former pupils of the School are known as Old Sydneians.
Sydney Grammar School has had the most [[High Court of Australia|High Court Justices]] (7) of any high school in [[Australia]], and has had an old boy sitting on the High Court almost constantly since the Court was founded.
In 2001, ''[[The Sun-Herald]]'' ranked Sydney Grammar School tenth in Australia's top ten schools for boys, based on the number of its [[alumni]] mentioned in the ''[[Who's Who in Australia]]'' (a listing of notable Australians).<ref name=WhosWho>{{cite news| first = Frank| last = Walker| title = The ties that bind| url = http://newsstore.smh.com.au/apps/viewDocument.ac?page=1&sy=smh&kw=%22presbyterian+ladies+college%22&pb=all_ffx&dt=selectRange&dr=entire&so=relevance&sf=author&sf=headline&sf=text&rc=10&rm=200&sp=nrm&clsPage=1&docID=SHD01072295GNI6E8E6E| work = Sunday Life| publisher = The Sun-Herald| page = 16| date = 2001-07-22| accessdate = 2007-09-12}}</ref>
