Australia's Christmas Spirit is a cd released to raise money for the Starlight Children's Foundation. The recording followed a 1998 television advertising campaign by Qantas, in which members of the Australian Girls Choir and the National Boys Choir appeared in various locations across the world singing the then largely unknown song "I Still Call Australia Home". The song was written by Australian entertainer Peter Allen in 1980.

In November 1998, the Australian Girls Choir and the National Boys Choir recorded the Australia's Christmas Spirit cd. The cd was 11 popular Christmas carols. Also included was the Peter Allen song "I Still Call Australia Home" featured in the Qantas television commercial.
