The continent site that I had posted says it's common now to refer to the Australian continent as Oceania - which includes New Zealand. I put the text in my last post as to what is considered Australia/Oceania. I will therefore repeat it here...

Many modern atlases and geography experts now consider the long-established continent of Australia to be better defined as Australia/Oceania, which then combines and includes all of (Australia), the large island groups of New Zealand, Papua New Guinea, Fiji, Solomons, and the countless volcanic and coral islands of the south Pacific Ocean including those of Micronesia, Melanesia and Polynesia.
