Wikipedia (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thirty_Days_Hath_September) mentions a Latin version:

  Junius Aprilis September et ipse November
  Dant triginta dies reliquis supadditur unus
  De quorum numero Februarius excipiatur.
But I'm not sure if this counts as the same poem or just another poem with the same information in it.

Googling turns up a French version "trente jours ont novembre" but I don't know if this is actually taught in French-speaking places.

French here, and father of kids in primary school.

Never heard of it.

We are using the knuckles version.
