Fly Your Flag

After almost two years of planning and preparation 20 flag poles and flags were unfurled at the Katanning Lions Park on 18 March 2016.

The poles proudly display some of the diverse nationalities living in town.

The Fly Your Flag project is managed by the Shire of Katanning and was originally developed by the Katanning Action Network and the poles and installation funded by the Great Southern Development Commission, Shire of Katanning and Katanning Lion's Club.

The flags were sponsored by community members.

Katanning has over 40 nationalities living in the town so the flags will be rotated several times per year. If you want a particular flag to fly, please complete the flag sponsorship webform here: Online Form - Sponsor a Flag, alternatively forms are available at the Shire of Katanning Administration and Civic Centre. A printable form is linked below.

The Australian and Indigenous flag will remain permanently.
