Authentic Australian foods for school sharing?

Question

My son is in 6th grade and is supposed to bring some traditional Australian food to share with the class. I have no idea what to fix, can anybody help me out? He also needs to do a short report (about 1/2 page) on the history of the food. I would appreciate any help. Thank you.

In Australia, commercially made meat pies are c**p; they contain all sorts of offal and garbage.  But if you google Aussie meat pie recipe and follow it, you'll make a very tasty, wholesome pie.
