NEW AUSTRALIAN FLAG... VERSION 2
A flag for all Australians.
Symbolism
Retains the current flag’s blue background with white stars. Australia is surrounded by blue oceans plus white surf on our beaches and white heat of the outback.
In the upper hoist (canton) of the flag is the white seven pointed Federation Star that represents current states and territories.
On the fly are 5 white stars, representing the Southern Cross to signify that we are geographically located in the southern hemisphere.
Separating the canon and fly there is a yellow and green stylised boomerang crossing both the top and bottom of the flag and pointing toward the Star of Federation with narrowing green matching insert strip. The yellow represents Australia’s golden beaches, golden wattle and deserts while the green represents the tropical rainforests and vast open grasslands. It also reinforces Green and Gold as our official sporting colours.
