Where has Christmas gone

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.

The changes in Childcare centres and what they can say and do is happening a lot. The childcare centre that my grandaughter attends sings Baa Baa Rainbow Sheep. Not Black sheep. But they still have Christmas Decorations and a visit from Santa.
But I feel that our Australian heritage and way of life is slowly being eradicated to cater for those few who choose to make Australia their home. I don't mind other cultures having their festivals and special days but they also have to respect that our country also has traditions too.
