Santa Mail is back: Inviting kids across Australia to share their Christmas wishes at Australia Post

Santa Mail is back for the festive season, inviting kids across Australia to share their Christmas wishes with Santa at over 3,300 participating Post Offices across the country.

Australia Post is encouraging families to join in the much-loved tradition by helping little ones write a letter to Santa, seal it in an envelope (no stamp or return address required), and deliver it to their local Post Office by 20 December to ensure it reaches the North Pole before Santa takes flight on Christmas Eve.

In return, letter writers will receive a special reply from Santa and one of three lucky dip Christmas tree ornaments that celebrate a distinctly Aussie Christmas, including ‘Poppy the Pavlova’, ‘Bonnie the Bon Bon’ and Australia Post mascot, ‘Pip the Koala’.

As the weather warms up, reported snake bites are increasing across the country. To provide peace of mind to people at home, on camping trips and on holidays, SURVIVAL’s Snake Bite KIT is designed so anyone can act quickly and confidently, even when panic sets in.

Most people never expect to treat a snake bite, and that’s exactly why they freeze when it happens. SURVIVAL’s latest Gen 8 range is built around one simple idea: in an emergency, people don’t want to be reading instructions. Every item in the kit carries a pictogram showing what it’s for.

The kit is built specifically for snake bites, plus major bleeds, fractures and sprains.
