使用DateTime时,在非对象上调用成员函数format()

I am trying to convert a date format from 31/12/15 to 2015-12-31 but I am having problems with this, I have tried strtotime methods with no luck as I keep getting 2031-12-15.

I have now changed the method to this:

$csv_array[4] = '31/12/15';    
$insert_csv['custom_10'] = DateTime::createFromFormat('d/m/y', $csv_array[4])->format('Y-m-d');

which seems to be echoing the correct format but also throwing an error of:

Fatal error: Call to a member function format() on a non-object
