Well, preschool would be 3 or 4..sometimes parents use it as daycare..normal kindergarten starts at 5 providing the child turns 5 before November and if not then the child would start the following yr, which is not always fair because they are only 2 months behind the class. Some schools have all day school such as my sons first school..in kindergarten he went from 7am till 1:20 pm..but then we moved to a different city and he only went from 7:30am till 10:50am..they had whats called, morning or afternoon classes.
