More terminology problems! In Australia "tea" is the evening meal, as in
the usual family meal. "Dinner" has more formal connotations. Thus "Come
for tea" means join the family and nothing fancy, while "Come for
dinner" means get dressed up a bit and expect a three course meal with
wine. Tea may be as early as 5.30 if you've got little children, dinner
is around 7.30.

As for "tea" at about 4.00pm, I presume you mean "afternoon tea" which I
would normally serve about 3.30pm, and that would consists of tea or
coffee and cake, possibly little sandwiches also if you're making a
production of it.
