Colours: the green background represents the deep green valleys of the Bundanoon area (Bundanoon is an Aboriginal word that means deep green valleys); yellow is the colour of Australian wattle; red is the colour of the Waratah which is also the emblem of Wingecarribee shire, and the parallel lines represents the parallel lines of the railway track, an important feature of Bundanoon; blue is the colour of the wonderful Australian sky and the white represents the mist that is so symbolic of Bundanoon and the Brigadoon story. The annual Bundanoon Highland Gathering sees the town transformed into Brigadoon. It attracts over 20,000 visitors and is a fundraiser for Bundanoon charities and community groups across the Wingecarribee, including the Wingecarribee Rural Fire Service, the State Emergency Service [SES], the St Johns Ambulance Service and the Lions club and local schools.
