Quite a few oldies came to my school eg. neville chamberlain, arthur ransome, lewis carroll, not to mention william web ellis (the founder of rugby-hence i go to rugby school ), poet Rupert Brooke...

A selection of randoms: Anthony Horowitz, faris badwan (in the band the horrors, going out with Peaches Geldof)

And when they filmed tom brown's schooldays, which is a book written about rugby school (an adaption for ITV) alex pettyfer and stephen fry came to the school. all of my friends were extras in it, but i couldn't be in it cos im a girl (it would have been an all boys school then). twas vair annoying...

Oh and the princes have come. and jeremy clarkson. and lots of random rugby teams - the south african team came, and the england team.

One of the girls that went to my school was a girl called Lindsay Payne. She was in the biz (old cbbc show about a drama school) and for those in the UK the girl in the "wear your seatbelt" ad, the one who screams and screams. That's her!

Most famous? She's not a big celeb, but Victoria State Coroner Jennifer Coate came to our school in the 60s/70s

Robert Kasinsky who plays Sean Slater in Eastenders and Jessica Hynes (Stevenson) the comedy actress but they were in different year groups to me. Jordan the glamour model.

Found out a few weeks ago that I went to the same High School (and then the same Upper School) as the author Robert Harris (Imperium, Enigma etc.)

Funny thing was I was in a bookshop in Sydney and a lady recommended Imperium to me....small world!

Johnny attended Lyndale State Primary and then went onto Lyndale High. High School treated him a little better and it was here that he got his first glimpse of his future career. Johnny and a couple of school friends formed a band called "The Mavericks". They practiced in their parents lounge rooms and after a couple of guitar lessons they knew 4 chords (C, G, F and A). They performed at School Socials and generally had a good time
