Australia's official National (and unofficial sporting) colours are Green and Gold, the colours of our national emblem, the Golden Wattle. These were established in a proclamation by Sir Ninian Stephen, the Governor-General of Australia on 19 April 1984.

Australia has several recognised emblems.

Australia's national floral emblem is the golden wattle.

Its national gemstone is the opal (officially designated in 1993).

The national colours, designated by the Governor-General on 19 April 1984, are green and gold, which represent the colour of the landscape. The red, white and blue of the flag are not Australia's national colours.

Surprisingly, the kangaroo and emu, which both feature on the Australian coat-of-arms, are not officially considered to be Australia's national emblems. There are no "national" faunal emblems. However, the coat-of-arms itself is a national emblem.

The blue represents the seas surrounding Australia, the Union Jack reflects our predominant heritage, the Southern Cross is a constellation that is visible from anywhere in Australia and is somewhat symbolic of Australia, the Commonwealth Star has seven points, one for each State and one for the Territories.
