Yep DS started school in QLD before we moved to NSW.

But I would say DD who started kindy this year in NSW gets WAY more homework than DS did in prep in QLD. But I would also say that depends on the school.

Do you know what school he'll be going to? Maybe give them a call and talk to them. DD's school teachers to the child's level rather than the "norm", ITMS? So if she is advanced in her reading she's given more complex books and so on.
