A PROUD nudist has outraged mums and teachers by handing out naked flyers of herself in a bizarre bid to stop a school cutting down trees.

Naturist Anya Petrovic said further destruction of the fauna would allow the students, as young as five, a "bird's eye" view of her sunbaking naked.

Manly Vale Public School parents were shocked when Ms Petrovic - whose property borders the school - recently turned up and started handing out the pamphlets.

The full-frontal nudity flyer, which had a small black square covering her lower private parts, was also left on the windscreens of cars parked in the area.

One parent who received the flyer told The Sunday Telegraph it was bizarre.

"It's just ridiculous and outrageous to be handing that out," the mother said. "There was a little blacked-out section on the lower part but everything up top was visible.

"To be handing that to parents while you're with your kids - and then they say: 'Mummy, what's that?' I just threw it away."

Ms Petrovic's husband, Misaj Tomic, told The Sunday Telegraph the act was an expression of frustration because the school had recently cut down a number of trees that for 14 years had provided privacy for their backyard.

They had asked the school to replace the trees.
