You could use a PageRenderer for this. Here is an example:

public class NoStatusBarPageRenderer : PageRenderer
{
    public NoStatusBarPageRenderer()
    {
    }

    public override void ViewWillAppear(bool animated)
    {
        UIApplication.SharedApplication.SetStatusBarHidden(true, UIStatusBarAnimation.Fade);

        base.ViewWillAppear(animated);
    }

    public override void ViewDidDisappear(bool animated)
    {
        UIApplication.SharedApplication.SetStatusBarHidden(false, UIStatusBarAnimation.Fade);

        base.ViewDidDisappear(animated);
    }
}

Then, for each page that you want to have the status bar hidden, add an attribute to use this renderer on that page.

[assembly: ExportRenderer(typeof(MyContentPage), typeof(NoStatusBarPageRenderer))]
