It depends on your definition of Australia's birth. Australia, as a continent inhabited by the Aborigines, has been around for thousands of years. If you count Australia's birth as being from the time of the landing of the First Fleet, then its 100th birthday was in 1888. If you count Australia's birth as being the time the name "Australia" was officially adopted, then its 100th birthday was in 1924. If you count Australia's birth as being from the Federation of the states into the Commonwealth of Australia, then its 100th birthday was 1 January 2001.
