This June, Amara Sanctuary Sentosa is teaming up with outdoor activity organiser Into The Wild for an adventurous two-day survival camp for children that swaps screen time for actual survival skills. Yes, we’re talking knots, navigation, and problem-solving – set against leafy grounds and old colonial barracks.

Timed with the school holidays, the Sentosa Survival Camp Staycation will be held on June 25 and 26 and is specifically designed for kids aged four to twelve to teach them how to handle themselves outdoors. Think confidence-building disguised as playtime with team challenges and hands-on activities. The programme is a one-night resort stay with guided outdoor sessions that nudge kids to be curious, resourceful, and maybe even a little brave.

Into the Wild co-founders Zhang Tingjun and Joscelin Yeo bring serious credentials – from disaster response to Olympic-level grit – so the skills being taught go beyond novelty. The idea is simple: get kids comfortable with challenges early, and they’ll carry that confidence long after the weekend ends.

The camp runs over two sessions – an evening stint on June 25 (5.30 to 8.30pm), followed by a morning round the next day (9am to 11.30am).

The package starts from $495++ for two adults and one child and includes a one-night stay at Amara Sanctuary Sentosa in selected room categories, a hearty breakfast buffet at the Sanctuary Tearoom, and a hands-on Sentosa Survival Camp experience for one child, led by trained Into The Wild facilitators. Little adventurers also receive a survival bracelet complete with a whistle and compass, plus a Little Explorer amenity kit that includes a nylon backpack, reversible bucket hat, and mosquito patches.
