A day of the weekend (8)

I believe the answer is:

saturday

(Other definitions for saturday that I've seen before include "Day named after the sixth planet from the sun" , "24 hours" , "Its child works hard for living" , "Ian McEwan novel about day of the week" , "today?" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
