The Red strip on the flag represents Love & passion towards anything and everything, imagine yourself flying a kite,imagine it tossing and turning in the breeze waiting and making beautiful loops in the sky. now picture it taking off and ending up in the tree. what would you do? leave it and drown with sadness or try your best to retrieve it.
The Blue strip represents Honour and Hard work. Look at it as a goal. a goal you and striving to reach and complete. all goals aren't as easy and just cheating and not walking long distances to achieve it look at it as a diet. working hard and long to burn off the hard activities to finally reach your goal and completing it.
The yellow represents Yourself and others. Think of it as Whanaungatanga,Manaakitanga,Tukumarie,Rangimarie and Ako - all meaning self goals of mindset and self resemblance. Whanaungatanga means Building relationships. Meaning you need to build respectable and peaceful relationships with your pairs inside and outside of class and school.
