Music
Seycove's music program includes concert and jazz choirs, as well as an internationally acclaimed chamber choir. The choir is an auditioned student choral group. They have received numerous accolades in the past, winning "Best Youth Choir of the World" in the international Kathaumixw festival in Powell River, in July 2006. In May 2007, the chamber choir travelled to New York City to perform at Carnegie Hall with the New England Symphony. The school also presents a musical production outside of its regular music program every other year involving Broadway musical selections. In February 2011, the Seycove Women's and Chorale choir again returned to New York City to perform at Carnegie Hall.
