create a new style; say "page1".press ctrl-enter two times. now click insert -> manual break.
select the option "page break"; under "style" option, choose "page1";"change page number" to 1. 
in the new page thus created, click on the header and insert page number. 

page number should start now from 1 from fourth page onwards.
