Medium Size | Lightweight Polyester | Proudly Australian Made | Ideal for Schools, Offices, Civic Buildings & Cultural Displays

Celebrate and honour the culture, history, and identity of the Torres Strait Islander peoples with this 1370mm x 685mm knitted polyester flag. Printed in Australia to exacting standards, this medium-sized flag is suited to flagpoles 6–7 metres in height, or for use indoors in schools, council chambers, workplaces, libraries, and community centres.

The flag’s powerful design was created by the late Bernard Namok and features strong, culturally significant elements:

Green and blue bands representing the land and the sea
A white Dhari (traditional ceremonial headdress) symbolising Torres Strait Islander culture
A white five-pointed star representing peace and the five major island groups

A Nationally Recognised Symbol of Culture and Identity

The Torres Strait Islander Flag is one of Australia’s two officially recognised First Nations flags, acknowledged nationally as a representation of the resilience, culture, and heritage of Torres Strait Islander peoples. Flying this flag is a statement of inclusion, recognition, and reconciliation.

This size is especially well-suited to:

Primary and Secondary Schools – for assemblies, civic education, and NAIDOC Week displays
Workplaces – supporting Reconciliation Action Plans and diversity initiatives
Council and Government Buildings – compliant with ceremonial flag protocols
Community Spaces – including libraries, town halls, and cultural venues
Events and Commemorations – such as National Sorry Day, Mabo Day, and NAIDOC Week
