G'day, Welcome to our Christmas in Australia site.
My wife and I have now enjoyed many years of answering emails which request information about the way Christmas is celebrated in Australia.
The pages have grown so much over the years that the menu on the left has become very complex. I trust that you can find the information that you need.
To assist you in your search I have introduced two sub-menus to lead you to "Carols & Songs" and also "Recipes & Menus". The sub-menus are here, watch out for them as you travel this site.

Just for Fun
Images that display an Australian Christmas are Santa's cap floating on a swimming pool on a sunny day and a 'snow man' made from beach sand with a seagull sitting on his sun hat.
Plus our logo in the heading of this page which depicts a person swimming at Christmas with sun glasses and a happy smile.

Fast becoming the new Icon for an Australian Christmas is the penguin.
Cute little fellows they only live in the southern hemisphere they are an ideal bird to be used as an Australian symbol.
They live on our southern shores and further south to the Antartic continent.
For more information go to

Note :- Wikipedia describes G'day or gidday as an informal greeting meaning 'hello', most famously used by people in Australia.
It seems to be an abbreviation of 'Good day'.
