Dear FROGS fans,

FROGS are here to help you all to achieve a more sustainable Christmas this year!

Thanks to the passionate work of the Class 4 children last year, we all are becoming increasingly aware of the damaging effects of plastic on our environment.

In an attempt to help us all to have a Christmas with less of a plastic theme, we have come up with some alternative Christmas gift ideas that you can give to those difficult to buy for people in your life!

As you can see from the top of the tree, the top choice for a sustainable Christmas is to “Buy Ethical”, including plastic free and sustainable products! WELL LOOK NO FURTHER THAN........
