Jersey's Australian community is celebrating their country's national holiday.
An event's being held at the Town Hall from 12pm to celebrate the country's traditions and history.
"We're going to have a traditional Aussie 'sausage sizzle' and there'll be lamingtons, Anzac biscuits and of course a few drinks to celebrate!"
Australia Day reflects on what it means to be Australian, to celebrate contemporary Australia and to acknowledge its history.
Kelly Whitehead will be there - she's hoping for a big turnout.
"We're an active community. I think at the last census, there was about 300 Australians living in Jersey.
"And of course there are a lot of people in Jersey who have connections - family and friends that are Australian or who have lived in Australia. We'd like them all to come down!"
