September Holiday Camps In Singapore You Can Book By The Day

Last verified: 17 August 2026 · By Jungle Editorial · 8 min read

TL;DR – The Quick Version

The September break runs Saturday 5 to Sunday 13 September 2026, and the only working week inside it is Monday 7 to Friday 11 September. Most camps sell that week as a fixed block. Only ten let you book a single day, from $29. Every camp below was checked on the provider's own booking page on 17 August 2026.
Last verified: 17 August 2026. The holiday is under three weeks away and several early bird windows close this month. Confirm on the provider's own site before paying.

Not every parent needs a full week of camp. Sometimes it is two days while the grandparents are away, or one day to break up a long stretch at home. The problem is that almost every camp in Singapore is priced and sold as a block.

We checked around 140 providers for the September 2026 break. Only ten sell a genuine single day. The MOE holiday runs Saturday 5 to Sunday 13 September, with Teachers' Day on Friday 4 September immediately before it, so the working week to cover is Monday 7 to Friday 11 September.

The Cheapest Way In: State Swim, $29 A Lesson

State Swim runs SwimVac at Suntec City across the 7 to 11 September week, priced per lesson at $29 including GST against a regular rate of $36.90, or $145 for the full week. It is the cheapest single session anywhere in the September field.

It is a swimming lesson, not a camp. Sessions are short and timed by level, so treat this as an activity rather than childcare cover. If you need someone to look after your child for a working day, look further down this list.

Best for topping up swim skills over the break at a low price.

The Cheapest Real Camp: ACT3 Storybook Village, $75 A Day

ACT3 Drama Academy runs a different story every day, which makes single-day booking a deliberate design rather than a concession. Their own copy puts it plainly: come for one story, or attend three consecutive days. Ages 3 to 5 run 9.30am to 11.30am at $75 a day, ages 6 to 8 run 9.30am to 12.30pm at $110.

Two discounts worth asking about. 15 per cent if your child takes both a Drama and a Young Speakers workshop, and 10 per cent for returning students. One discount only, not both. Cairnhill runs the full Monday to Friday; Kovan runs Tuesday to Thursday.

Best for younger children, and the lowest per-day price for an actual camp this September.

The Cheapest Full Day: Wolf Camp, $120

Wolf Camp runs outdoors at Parkland Green in East Coast Park, 9am to 3pm, with drop-off from 8.45am and pick-up at 2.45pm. Their booking system genuinely offers per-day as well as per-week, so a single Tuesday is a real option rather than a phone negotiation.

Two things their own terms make clear. Lunch and snacks are not included, so pack them. And if fewer than four children sign up for a given week, they reserve the right to cancel.

Best for outdoorsy children aged 4 to 12, and the lowest full-day rate this September.

The Longest Day: Hollandse Club, 9am To 5pm

At $151 for members and $167 for non-members, Hollandse Club is the most expensive per day here, and the only one running until 5pm with lunch and snacks included. For a working parent, an eight-hour day that feeds your child is a different product from a three-hour morning. Non-members are welcome at the higher rate.

Best for full working-day cover.

Three That Do Not Run The Whole Week

D'Open Kitchen runs Monday to Thursday, 10am to 1pm, at $128 a day for ages 7 to 10, in a cooking studio three minutes from Tanjong Pagar MRT. The short morning suits a child not ready for a full day.

SRT x Kids Space runs Monday to Wednesday only, 9am to 3pm at Dempsey, ages 4 to 7, with lunch included. At $130 for members and $156 otherwise it is a full day at a mid-range price, and you can take one, two or three days.

School of Robotics runs Tuesday to Friday, 10.30am to 3.30pm. At $200 a day it is the priciest single day here, dropping to $180 if you book three or four. They also publish aftercare at $5 per 15-minute block, which is the only published aftercare rate found in this entire research.

Best for a partial week, or a child with a specific interest.

The One That Needs A Phone Call

Get GungHo runs a five-day STEAM camp on Sentosa, 9am to 4pm, ages 5 to 12, with transport to excursions included. Their online form sells the full week only, but their own site says you can WhatsApp to join for fewer than five days. There is no published day rate, so you will need to ask.

Easier to reach than it sounds. Pick-up and drop-off is at either the Sentosa Monorail station or outside H&M on the ground floor of VivoCity. Hot lunch is a paid add-on. There is also an optional overnight at Siloso Beach Resort on Thursday 10 September for $220, ages 9 to 12.

Teachers' Day And The Weekends, When No Camp Runs

Every camp in this guide runs Monday to Friday. Nothing at all runs on Teachers' Day, Friday 4 September, or on either weekend. Museums and libraries fill that gap, and most of it is free or close to it.

Monday 7 September is the dead day. The Children's Museum closes on Mondays, the Children's Garden closes on Mondays, and the National Library has no children's events scheduled at all. If you need cover that day, it has to be a camp.
Two booking notes. All four ArtScience sessions were marked "selling fast" when we checked on 17 August, and those two Saturdays are the only dates offered. Gardens by the Bay's craft sessions are onsite registration only, first come first served, and you still need to pay Flower Dome admission separately.

What To Check Before You Book A Single Day

  • Is lunch included? Hollandse Club, SRT x Kids Space and School of Robotics feed your child. Wolf Camp and ACT3 do not.
  • What time does it actually end? The range here is 1pm to 5pm. That is the difference between covering a working day and not.
  • Is there aftercare? Only School of Robotics publishes a rate, at $5 per 15 minutes. Everyone else is silent, so ask.
  • Does the week build on itself? If Tuesday follows on from Monday, a single day may leave your child behind.
  • Is there a minimum group size? Wolf Camp cancels below four children.
  • Which days actually run? Five of these ten stop before Friday 11 September.

If You Need The Whole Week Instead

Booking the block is cheaper per day in every case. Wolf Camp is $450 for the week against $120 a day, and ProActiv Prodigy is $575 against $130. Eighteen camps run the full Monday to Friday block this September, from $222, listed in our guide to full-week September camps.

Two timing notes. Teachers' Day falls on Friday 4 September and is itself a school holiday, so the gap parents are covering is ten days rather than nine, and no camp here runs on that Friday. And nothing at all runs on the closing weekend of 12 and 13 September. Every camp in Singapore ends on the Friday.
