A high school nudist club

[Bob S.]

One actually exists! It is in Australia somewhere in the Gold Coast, although the exact school is unknown for obvious reasons.

I got this information from a firsthand source on another internet nudist group. From what I understand, the group will gain members via word-of-mouth only. They will meet at the school in a designated area after hours (clothed, of course) to discuss future get-togethers.

I am unsure about the faculty sponsor in school, but I do know that at the gatherings, there will be no faculty in attendence unless that person is also the parent of a member of the group.

Here's to hoping for more!

I think back in 1940-1950 there was Nadist school in USA. Do any one know about is ?

I've never heard of anything like that, and it's a shame. A high school nudists club would've been awesome. In retrospect, I could probably think of fifteen to twenty people in the Class of '03 that might have been interested. Of course, now I would be looking for a college naturists club...

Wow! Wish there had been a similar club in my high school. Great idea and I hope/wonder if it gets more people involved and comfortable with nudism.

I think it would be awesome if my high school had a nudist club, but then I would most likely be the only member. [img]/infopop/emoticons/icon_frown.gif[/img]

You never know, 17 tex! The best place to find other high school nudists are in the art classes and the Drama club!

In his now closed website, George Muss had a photo gallery that included a B&W of what looked like a 40's or 50's classroom of elementary aged children. The teacher was an older looking lady and was fully clothed, but all the kids were nude. Somehow, I got the impression that it was from Elysium Fields, but I might have imagined that part.

Yes LeeR49 that one I saw. I Think it was from Elysium Field.

There was school in the UK called (I think)Summerfield during the 1970-80's. Ages from 10 to 18 thereabouts. Kids could go nude if they wished; it had a large swimming pool and sun-area. Apparently had some behavioural problems in the 1980's, but that's not unusual given the political and social climate at the time. A television documentatry was made in the early 1990's. I think it still exists, but the original expectations- that children given almost complete freedom to choose their areas of study and social relationships- would be great role models for others, were not achieved. As we are social beings, the influences (good and bad) from other areas of our relationships also influence our behaviour.
I recall a recent TV documentary on high schools in Papua New Guinea that had naked students; but this was due to their normal state of nudity in their family groups; no-one seemed uncomfortable with a fully-dressed female teacher teaching naked teenagers. Commonsense does still exist in some parts of the world.
Wish I'd gone to a school that permitted social nudity- would have thrived on it.

Update.

They had their first meeting in school. A good turnout although it was suspected that some were there for a somewhat prurient interest. Rather than a gathering at another person's home, they decided that the first get-together would be done at a nude beach.

By the way, my source for info is from the ClothedFreeChild yahoo group
