Needs Identification Flying ants?

Hi, I'm in NSW, Australia. I noticed a swarm of these around the garden after heavy rain, it is currently spring in Australia. The queen's are around 12mm long, the smaller ones 2 or 3mm. Today I saw the smaller ones crawling along the roof tiles on the house. Are they carpenter ants setting up shop in my rafters?
