1st dance exam

My girl has started Highland Dancing. She really enjoys it. She just had her first dance exam. She is very keen to get a medal! She danced really well but won't get her medal until the prize-giving at the end of June. That is, if she has won one - it is a secret and they won't tell until the day. How awful is that? She is 4 years old. Imagine if we go to a prize-giving and she is excitedly expecting a medal and doesn't get one. She would be so upset and I couldn't bear it. When she is upset she is very upset! After having to pay money for the exam, buy a costume and pumps I sincerely hope she does get a medal. She deserves one.
