I believe that Antarctica and Australia used to be one continent, and that Ice Ages that may have occurred back in those times would have affected the entire super continent,

According to Wikipedia, Antarctica and Australia started separating 80 million years ago. I think when most people speak of ice ages they are referring to various cycles in the last few hundred thousand years, although apparently these are just parts of a an extended modern ice age that began 40 million years ago and which is still continuing.
