From 2009, the Rotary Club of Ballarat West has stood back from the twinning program, as it now, in the capable hands of staff at St John of God Hospital in Ballarat, was running independently. The Dental Program diversified to include the Cook Islands, and later Fiji and Vanuatu
The Twinning Program celebrated its twentieth anniversary in 2012, both in Ballarat and later in Nuku'alofa. John Macdonald PHF, now the International Health Project Officer for St John Of God, will hopefully put a report up on these meetings and the future directions of the Twinning Program.
