Newbie question - Constructors

I'm using Squeak to try to learn about Smalltalk. At the moment I'm trying to
create a Frog class with a collection Frogs stored at class level. I want to
somehow override Frog new so that when a Frog instance is created, the new
method defined in the Frog class creates the object instance and then adds this
instance to the Frogs collection.
I've tried
new
^super new initialize
initialize
self class Frogs add: self
but the new defined in the Frog class is never called. Can someone please tell
me what I'm missing? Is this even the right approach in Smalltalk?
Thanks,
Mark
