A school year does run from Sept to July.
Children whose birthdays are between 1st Sept 2003 to 31st Aug 2004 will start school this Sept 08
This means that some children will be nearly 5 like your son, Flashy and some children with August birthdays like my daughter will have only just turned 4 when they start school.
Are you sure that Reece had actually turned 5 when he started?
School usually starts in the first few days of Sept....was it late that year?
