Frog Day

Greenwich Peninsula Ecology Park

Join us for a fun filled, froggy themed, free event, celebrating the time of year when frogs return to their breeding ponds and lay frogspawn.

Froggy activities include pond dipping, a “Good Pond Bad Pond” workshop, Toadly Awesome Art, frogtastic quiz trails and a”What’s in a Frog’s Larder?” bug hunt. The Friends of the Park group will be running Freddy Frog’s pop up cafe and a gift and second hand book stall.
