sə́yəmətən was the name of the village located in this area that we now call Strathcona.  sə́yəmətən means “place of good water”.  The Tsleil-Waututh Peoples primarily used ocean routes for transportation, using cedar canoes.  Throughout different seasons of the year, they would travel to different locations throughout the inlet, hunting and harvesting in the bountiful coastal waters and shores.   Their safe journeys relied upon detailed knowledge of the seasons, associated tides, weather patterns, and currents.  “The Place of Good Water” offered travellers a safe haven from storms and tides, and was teeming with ocean life and food. Welcome to sə́yəmətən, where Seycove resides.

Artona will be returning to Seycove on Wednesday, October 16th. Students who did not get their photo taken in the first round, and those who would like a retake, can get their photos taken this day. Photos will be taken starting at 12:30 pm.  Retake Policy:  Only when we can improve our photography, e.g. eyeglass glare, poor posture, too much head tilt, eyes closed.  Students who would like to have a retake must bring their ID card as there is a QR code on the back of the card the photographers need in order to photograph students! Thank you
