Summary
| Description |
Koru (Blue): As our flag unfurls, so too does its koru. The koru represents the fern frond, but is also reminiscent of a wave, a cloud, and a ram’s horn. In Māori kowhaiwhai patterns the koru represent new life, growth, strength and peace, and for this reason has crossed cultures, taking a special place in Aotearoa’s visual language. It is the colour of the sea and the sky, both of which surround us.

| Official description | The right half of this flag is blue. At the halfway point of the flag the blue forms a stylised koru on a white background. |
