And in the four-quarters, there are: Above the shield is the iron helmet with red and silver mantling and above the helmet there is the silver and red wreath, and on the wreath there is a gold mural crown, which is a symbol of municipal government.

Out of the mural crown rises the upper half of a kangaroo, facing the left side of the shield and looking backwards over its shoulder.

There is a gold lion on each side of the shield, upright on its hind legs and with a black crown.

A red chain, attached at the top to the collar, passes over each lion's back and body.

A scroll below the arms reads 'Vires Acquirit Eundo' which translates as 'It acquires strength by going' (a quotation from Vergil's Aeneid, which in the original context refers to Fama, or Rumour personified).
