Did you know the Australian Flag was first flown on 3 September 1901? Each year, National Flag Day is celebrated across Australia to recognise this powerful national symbol, one that reflects our history, values, and unique identity.
The Australian National Flag combines important elements of our heritage:
- The Union Jack – representing our historical ties to Britain
- The Commonwealth Star – symbolising the federation of states and territories
- The Southern Cross – showcasing our place in the Southern Hemisphere
At AWCC, as a proudly Australian-owned and operated business, we recognise the importance of what the flag represents: unity, resilience, and the spirit of Australians working together. Just as the Australian Flag stands for the strength of our nation, we are committed to upholding these values in the work we do to support our industry and communities.
This National Flag Day, let’s take a moment to reflect on the history, sacrifices, and achievements the flag represents, and the pride we share in being Australian.
