Saskatchewan Science Centre Day Camps are offered on school holidays and professional development days from September to June.  We also offer very popular week long summer day camps during July and August.

All Camps, including School's Out Day Camps and Summer Camps, include:

  • Exciting experiments and activities that are both educational and entertaining
  • Exploration on the Science Centre exhibit floor
  • An IMAX film
  • Highly-trained camp leaders
  • A great staff to camper ratio: one staff for every ten campers


Parents please pack the following for all camps:  

  • NUT and PEANUT free lunch and two snacks
  • Indoor shoes
  • Appropriate clothing to go outside

If your camper is shy, we can register your child with a friend and we will make sure to include them in the same group.
