Letters to Santa
December is a special time of year for Santa as he works hard to prepare for his big trip on Christmas Eve. Up at the North Pole, he and his elves will be busy trying to find special gifts for all the boys and girls who have been good.
In between feeding the reindeer and packing his sleigh, Santa will make time to respond to the letters he receives from children across Australia.
You can start writing to Santa from 1 December and you should send your wish list at least a week before Christmas Eve to ensure that Santa has enough time to reply before Christmas.
Santa's special address
To make sure Santa receives your letter on time, please send it to:
Santa

Letters to Santa can be posted in any red street posting box or over the counter at your local Australia Post retail outlet.
Remember to write the address clearly, place a 60c stamp on your envelope and don't forget to include your return address on the back on the envelope so that Santa knows where to send his reply.
