About Australia Day

Australia Day is the national public holiday on 26 January. It means different things to different Australians: for many Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people it is a day of mourning, sometimes called Survival Day or Invasion Day (National Museum of Australia).

So these pages stay with what everyone can enjoy in the middle of the summer holidays: native animals, the national floral emblem, the waratah and the beach. We don't draw flags or Indigenous art styles, which belong to First Nations artists.
