Do I Have To Pick My Child Up Between Camp Sessions?

When planning a child’s Stutelage school break or summer camp schedule, one of the most common questions parents ask is:

“Do I have to pick my child up between camp sessions?”

Nope!

If your child is enrolled in both a morning and afternoon summer camp session, they can stay for the full day—no mid-day pick-up required.

How Full-Day School Break & Summer Camp Scheduling Works

At Stutelage, we’ve designed our school break and summer camp schedule to be as simple and flexible as possible for families.

If your child is registered for both sessions in one day, they will:

• Stay on-site between sessions
• Eat a packed lunch from home (lunch is not provided)
• Eat outside in the sun – weather permitting
• Be supervised by staff during lunch club
• Transition directly into their next camp

This creates a full-day camp experience without the hassle of multiple drop-offs and pick-ups.

Even better?
This mid-day supervision is completely free of charge for full-day campers.

What If My Child Is Only Attending Half-Day Camp?

If your child is only enrolled in a morning OR afternoon camp, but you need extended care, you can add on a paid lunch club registration. This allows:

– AM campers to be picked up at 12:30pm instead of 12pm

– PM campers to be dropped off at 12pm instead of 12:30pm

Why Families Choose Full-Day Camp Options

Many families choose to combine sessions into a full-day summer camp because it:

• Eliminates mid-day driving
• Keeps kids in a consistent routine
• Allows children to fully enjoy their day without interruptions

The Bottom Line

• Full-day campers: Stay all day—no pick-up needed (and no extra cost). Just pack a lunch.
• Half-day campers: Add Lunch Club if you need extended care (paid option).
