The Child Centre where my daughter-in-law works will not be celebrating Christmas with the children as there are families who attend who dont believe in it. Last time I checked this was Australia and I grew up going to school and making Christmas gifts and easter bonnets as a way of life.
To me this is a tradition of the Australian way of life which we now have to change for a minority. It's not like we would go to their country of origin and demand that they celebrate our way of life.

It's hard to beleive this could happen.
Youre right - last time I looked this was still Australia.
Maybe the Child Centre where your daughter-in-law works is just too lazy to put in the effort and is using this as an excuse to do nothing.
It doesn't sound like the sort of place that an Australian would recommend or support.
