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.

Dear Mustang,
I believe this is more than a tradition. It should be celebrated as it would be normally. Allow the other children to be in another area. I have worked in schools with the Christian Education program and that is how they get around this problem. I think it is giving in to other ethnic groups which shouldn't be allowed to happen. Australia is classed as a Christian nation.
