I'm more thinking, the winning school sports team, a choir performing, etc. Things that would be posted in normal institutional participation and give children

  Certainly in my lifetime we never posted such things publicly across the globe, neither for myself nor my peers, nor for my children and most of their peers at school. Such things were printed and handed out and rarely made it past that years parents and students and the school archive (physical visit required).

    Getting in the newspaper or on TV for winning an award or competition or something has been around for a long time.

      For the very rare few, yes, a fair while. For the Dux's and general high performers, less time than I've been alive. For entire classrooms to be posted up via live streams, Insta, tok's, etc ... barely a decade or so. It's not something that was always normal, and just because it's become "normalised" doesn't mean it must remain that way.

  Some schools will (try to) do this, but under European privacy and portrait right laws, they have to get explicit permissions from parents first. I think a school news letter / yearbook is cute, but it should be private and only for the students and parents. A physical version would be best, you can put those in the archive instead of realize 20 years later that the digital versions are gone.
