Figure 1.--Here is the Kindergarden at the Kasaoka primary school in 2010. It shows the graduation ceremonies the day after tge main primary school graduation ceremonies. The uniforms are different than at the primary school. Notice the red skirts and shiorts.

Japanese primary schools begin at age 6 years with first grade. This is the ofician beginning of school. There are also Kindergardens. Not all children attend Kinfergarden, but many do. We think many if not most Kindergardens are seprate from ther primary schools, but they may be associations. Some appear to be attached or located close to primary schools. There are welcoming ceremonies for the children at the Kindergardens. We are not sure just what the age range is at the Kinfergardens, it may be wider than just for 5 years olds, rather like a generalized nursery school. There are also graduartion ceremonies.
