I would say go to page 15.  Open at page 15.

Is it a GB v US thing?

Actually,

in my teacher �s book for Chatterbox written in English is the following instruction: "Ask the students to open their books TO page ...." I was very surprised as I had always used AT page and this is still confusing for me. And it seems I am not the only one.
