One area that Hitchens has a dramatic influence in is in his work with youth at Te Poutama Arahi Rangitahi. Te Poutama Arahi Rangitahi is a specialist, secure residen- tial treatment programme near Christchurch, housing the most high-risk youth in New Zealand, aged between 12-to 18-years-old. The residents have engaged in harmful behaviour that have left them unable to live safely in the community. Classroom teacher Gabby Tu- aine, and residence manager Lin- coln Ellery, both agreed the youth in this programme are all severe- ly at risk and have a range of an- ti-social behaviours with mild to moderate learning delays. Tuaine and Ellery cannot speak highly enough of Hitchens and the positive influence he has had on students since starting there in 2016. “There is ongoing interest in interventions, such as partici- patory music programmes, that seek to foster social reintegra- tion, support mental wellbeing and equip young offenders with life skills, competencies and emotional resilience,” they said. “Dan has the ability to connect and engage all youth into an in- clusive individualised music pro- gramme. “Students feel at ease in Dan’s presence as he manages to en- gage our young akonga (pupils) after years of disengagement from mainstream education.” For Hitchens, teaching at Te to give teaching a go and soon year-olds wanting to learn gui- Poutama Arahi Rangitahi is the gathered up an impressive list of tar, ukulele or basic piano. highlight of his day.
