4 year old not playing with others

Just wanted some reassurance from others, you would think I would remember this as I have an older child! my 4 year old DD started school in September and her brother always says he sees her by herself. I realise that he probably only sees her a small amount of time so I can't really take his word for it all the time, but I'm worried if she spends too much time alone she will miss out on making friends. She's a younger one of the year (August baby) but didn't seem to have an issue with friends at nursery. One main issue is that lots of the kids moved up from the pre school at the school ( I couldn't get my DD in) so they already formed a solid friendship base. I guess what I'm asking is a bit of reassurance; am I panicking about this a bit early? The teacher didn't mention anything at parents evening and DD is always happy to go.
My little boy was a bit of the outsider year r and 1 and I always found it so difficult (not that they know!) he has a couple of friends now but I have this anxiety about both of them really. Anyone's kids the same when younger but got more friends the older they were? The good thing is the school mixes classes each year so it keeps it fresh,
thanks sorry for rambling!
