Australia Day is celebrated on the 26th January each year. If you are celebrating yourself, we hope you will find some good ideas on our Australia Day pages. If
you are not celebrating yourself, it is a great time to learn about Australia and find some related activities for your kids to try!
"Give me a home among the gum trees
With lots of plum trees
A sheep or two
A kangaroo
A clothesline out the back
Veranda out the front
And an old rocking chair.
You'll see me in the kitchen
Cooking up a roast
Or vegemite on toast
Just you and me
And a cup of tea."

And from all the lands on earth we come
We share a dream and sing with one voice:
I am, you are, we are Australian."

Australian Jokes
What’s small and cuddly and bright purple? A koala holding his breath!
What do you call a boomerang that won’t come back? A stick!
This is the joy-inspiring day
That gave these blessings to our lot
Then let us share the social rites
Join hands, all malice be forgot!
This little star, once marked by none
Now shines a bright - a BLAZING SUN!
