	Comments:	without a mention in the 幼稚園 entry that it's a 3 year system in Japan, the xref is pointless.

	Comments:	I think it's better to define sense 4 as a student then as a class. daijs does this: 幼稚園・保育園で、4歳児。 Interesting we had this sense for 年中 but not 年少 or 年長... The x-ref might help Americans confused by the fact that in the US, kindergarten is just 1 year.

	Comments:	Ok, I don't have a problem with keeping it. Meikyo wasn't one of the refs you listed. I assumed the reading was added in error.

	Comments:	Added sense. Rene added ねんぢゅう in 2011 but I don't see it in any of the refs (aside from an archaic example from 日葡辞書). Can we drop it?
