The majority of Australians celebrate christmas as others around the western hemisphere do who have had contact with missionaries. Some peoples here such as the Torres Strait Islanders in the far north of Australia celebrate the missionaries arrival with a ceremony called the "Coming Of The Light". So ultimately we have adopted a lot of christian celebrations for now as we too are a very religious peoples.
