On Tuesday 22nd March Belfast School got to vote for their preferred flag, this was run by the
Belfast Flyers. You could choose from the original flag or the new proposed flag. This was run
like the real referendum with voting slips and voting booths. It was important not to share
your vote with anyone because it may affect what the representation of New Zealand looks like
and what someone picks is their decision not yours.
The total for the Belfast kid’s voting was … new flag 248 votes; existing flag 193 votes;
therefore the children’s choice is the new flag.
We can’t wait to find out which flag the adults in New Zealand voted for!
