context_page_description: Clive Stanley Crowley DCM was an Australian grazier and soldier who was killed during the First World War. Letters between Crowley and his mother were part of the historical material that inspired the libretto of An Australian War Requiem.
context_section_description: Members of the extended Crowley family, siblings and cousins, were educated at Cobbadah in a conventional manner by a governess. The children then went to boarding schools in Sydney. In 1905 Crowley and a younger brother, Frank, were enrolled at Newington College. His older brothers, Arley and Royce had already been students at Newington and the youngest boy, Keith, started there in the year after Clive's death. At Newington, Crowley studied on the Modern side and left school at the end of 1906 with a favourable record. The Newingtonian at the time of his death said: "he was one of three brothers who came to the School, while a large number of cousins from other families made the name a very familiar one. Brought up on a station, he lived the life of outdoor activity that has given the Australian Army so many of its alert and competent soldiers."
