This depends upon Australians' own individual cultural background. Many Australians have accepted the American "Santa Claus", but some of European backgrounds still hold to the name "Father Christmas".
The Christmas holidays in Australia vary from state to state (or territory).
Many private schools finish in the last week of November, while others have their final day on the Thursday or Friday of the first week of December. A list of the Christmas holiday starting dates for 2010 is below.
The following dates are for 2011.
Father Christmas comes to Australia on Christmas Eve. The same time as as he would in the U.S.A. and other countries.
In some families with old traditions going back to certain parts of Europe, Father Christmas is still known as Father Christmas. The majority of people know him as Santa Claus.

In Australia, Santa (or Father Christmas) is assisted by six white boomers, which are large, male kangaroos.
Yes he does.
Papa Noel is Father Christmas.
Reindeers get Santa Claus/Father Christmas as far as Australia, then the boomers (large male kangaroos) take over for the Australian run.
Nobody can answer that. Only you can.

After dark on Christmas Eve.
Santa Claus, or Father Christmas, makes his Australian deliveries during Christmas Eve and early on Christmas Day, just as he does in other countries. The difference is that Australia is many hours ahead of other nations such as the UK and USA, so he is well finished his deliveries in time to move on to the next country.
