Campus

The Seabury Hall campus includes an Upper School Building, two Middle School Buildings (Carter Hall & Haynes Hall), the 'A'ali'ikuhonua Creative Arts Center, the Erdman Athletic Center, the Castle Library, Cooper House, the AIM center (art, innovation, and music), and several other buildings.

Seabury Hall Craft Fair

The annual Seabury Hall Craft Fair is a gathering of arts and entertainment located at the Seabury Hall campus.[4] It is always held on the Saturday before Mother's Day in May. The fair features over 100 artists and crafters, including Maui-based woodworkers, traditional Hawaiian artists, jewelers, ceramists, and weavers. The fair is largely run by parents and students who are required to participate in order to raise money for financial aid. In addition, there are specialty foods, live music, fresh produce, cut flowers, children's games, rummage sale, and a silent auction.

Student Life

Seabury Hall's student government plays an active role in the day-to-day life of the student body. It currently consists of five elected officers: president, vice president, secretary, treasurer, and historian. It also has a variety of officer elected committees to further expand the amount the organization can achieve.

Seabury Hall's students are also very active in extracurricular activities, including sports, clubs, and community service.

Athletics

Seabury Hall offers a variety of interscholastic sports. Fall sports include air riflery, cross country, flag football, and girls volleyball. Winter sports include basketball, paddling, soccer, and swimming. Spring sports include baseball, girls water polo, boys volleyball, and track and field. Hula classes are also available for middle school students.[5]

Student athletes are eligible to win a few different awards, such as Lettering, Athlete of the Year, Scholar Athlete of the Year, Super Spartan Award, and Spartan Award.[6]

Winterim

Winterim is a hallmark program at Seabury Hall that brings together groups of students from various grades to participate in a week-long, out-of-classroom educational experience of their choosing at the end of March. Students rank their top choices from a catalog of options, with themes ranging from crafts, to sports, to cultural exploration. All grades participate in Winterim, but younger students are typically selected for on-island programs that occur during the day, while older students may be selected for off-island programs and overnight programs. Several Winterim programs occur off the island of Maui, and occasionally outside of the state of Hawaii. Previous off-island programs have included trips to neighboring Hawaiian islands, Peru, and more. Each Winterim is led by an expert in the field, from outside of Seabury Hall, as well as at least one Seabury Hall faculty. There are no normal classes during the winter session.

Neutrinos travel only very slightly slower than light, and can take a more direct path because they don't interact much with matter, while the fibre-optic lines for internet traffic only let light go at 0.6c or something, and use less direct paths, and have routing overhead.
