Not just a midnight celebration, the programme spotlighted the year’s most visible themes: growth in digital access and online courses, new premises and expansion plans, and the opening of sites linked to Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard. It also highlighted drug prevention with Drug Free World, literacy and values-focused initiatives (TWTH) linked to community engagement in multiple regions.
