Default Different column and margin settings on second page

I have a 2 page template. The first page has 3 columns and a large top
margin. The second page has 2 columns and a smaller top margin.

Is there any way to have text flow from page 1 to page 2 seamlessly? Or do
I have to treat them as 2 different sections? I set it up with "different
first page" but that doesn't seem to help.

Word cannot flow text through a section break, and you have to
use a section break to change from a three-column layout to a
two-column layout.

may be trying to accomplish.
