My son misses out too here in QLD, but by nearly a month, so not quite as bad! They start at 5, my son will be 5 1/2 nearly- pretty hard after he has done a year of full time nursery in the UK!
It's called Prep, the first year they go, and is full time in QLD, which is good, cos part time in a lot of sates I think. From what I can gather from websites and what my son learns at kindy, (ie recognise your own name written down - at 4!), it is more like nursery than reception.
As Nat mentioned, CK kindys very popular, I had no chance of geting them in there either- plus they charge you to go on the waiting list! No good as by the time they get a place, they'll be at school!
