Winter break

Winter camps in Taiwan

Winter break is short, about three weeks, and Lunar New Year sits at the end of it. Most camps squeeze into the two weeks before the holiday, and early-bird deadlines come early.

What that means for camps: nearly every winter camp below runs between Jan 21 and Feb 3, before the Lunar New Year week. International-school calendars differ, and a few programs run in December too.

Book early: several early-bird deadlines fall in late November and early December 2026: Orange Apple and RunBase by Nov 30, the Humanistic Education Foundation by Dec 6, Wenzao by Dec 18.
