The flag came to represent the He Whakaputanga Declaration, which is often described as the tuakana to Te Tiriti o Waitangi. It was a declaration to the world that Māori were a sovereign people and an independent state. This was signed in 1835 at Waitangi and sent to Britain where it was recognised and reaffirmed by King William IV.

Tūrou parea, Tūrou Hawaiki.
May the ancient homeland of Hawaiki glisten on in mind's eye forever
- Simply translated this whakatauki can be understood as ‘May the force be with you’. Or the full version is, "May the ancient homeland of Hawaiki glisten on in mind's eye forever". The phrase "Tūrou Hawaiki" is commonly used as a kīwaha in everyday speech. Hawaiki is understood to be the place of origin for Māori. In the Far North, we believe that when someone passes on their spirit goes to Rerenga Wairua (Cape Reinga) and enters Te Moana-nui-a-Kiwa (Pacific Ocean) to travel back to Hawaiki. This taonga reminds us of heritage, ancestry and identity.

- Rangiātea is a significant place for Māori, physically and spiritually. Rangiātea is located in Tahiti and known as Ra’iatea. The place is also featured in the legend of Tānenuiarangi as he gathered the baskets of knowledge from the heavens of Rangiātea.
