There isn't a shield on our flag. The flag has the union jack (British flag) on the top with a crown in the centre, and the bottom half of the flag is a sun with wavy rays over blue waves. The sun sets in the west, so I think the bottom is the sun setting on the Pacific Ocean, and the top is a reference to the UK and the monarchy.
