Blue The clear blue sky and the Pacific ocean which surrounds our islands, the colour represents all settlers who arrived over the sea since 1769. White Peace, and the two main islands of Aotearoa, land of the long white cloud. Black New Zealand's internationally renown colour. Red represents the Maori, the earth, and New Zealanders sacrifices during wartime. The multiple colours represent multicultural New Zealand. |
