Would you not be plagued with returning frogs?
I'd keep the pond and make it safe and have a lidded sandpit

Frogs are fantastic.

Our pond (when I was a kid) was "un cared for" and far more interesting
for the wild-life it attracted.
And frogs eat slugs and other garden un-friendly creatures.

Every small pond is a living breathing nature reserve.

We've been (unsuccessfully) trying to establish frogs in our pond for years.

The newts eat the spawn/tadpoles.

Easily fixed. Breed some in an aquarium and release them in the autumn.
