🇦🇺 HAPPY AUSTRALIAN NATIONAL FLAG DAY 🇦🇺
Today, 3 September, marks the anniversary of the first official flying of the Australian flag in Melbourne in 1901.
Our flag was created by the Australian people through a national competition following Federation. Thousands of Australians submitted their designs, with the winning design bringing together the Union Jack, the Southern Cross and the Federation Star.
A flag carrying the history of where we came from, the nation we built, and the people who came before us.
There’s something powerful about seeing the Australian flag flying proudly — especially when you see five of them flying together.
A big shoutout to the Colonial Tavern in Acacia Ridge for proudly flying our flags every day. 🇦🇺
A bloody great sight to see.
Happy National Flag Day, Australia. Fly it proudly. 🇦🇺
