The confusion is in the first year. We have a year zero only if you start after the cutoff otherwise you start straight into year one. My son turned five the day before the cut off so he did 3/4 of year 1 then goes straight into year 2. If he had been born 2 days later he would do 3/4 of a year in y0, a full year in year one and go into year 2 at nearly 7.

Eta. I am in New Zealand. There is a y2/y3 this year but not usually.
