Description

For many Christians, Christmas marks the birth of Jesus. It is celebrated on 25 December in most countries around the world, and involves traditions like Santa Claus, decorating the Christmas tree and gifting of presents. Christmas falls in summer in New Zealand, so Santa Parades, and barbecues in the backyard are some of the ways the festival is celebrated here.
