verse about months of the year

I was reading the pages from unit 43-44 for homework and noticed that they wrote "31 September" which obviously doesn't exist. so I got curious and started looking for the English equivalent of an Italian rhyme children learn at school in order to remember which month has 30, 28 and 31 days. I finally came across this verse:

Thirty days hath September,
April, June, and November.
All the rest have thirty-one,
excepting February alone,
which hath twenty-eight.
Leap year cometh one year in four,
in which February hath one day more.
if it's actually used by English-speakers, it can be interesting knowing it...

bye!
