Pelkhil’s location by the river makes it very suitable for flying kites. With our large field devoid of buildings or trees and a strong and steady breeze, the area is actually perfect. On 5th and 6th March, a visitor from Japan, Ms Iwashita will be at Pelkhil interacting with the students to thank Bhutan for the support offered for the 2011 earthquake and tsunami disaster in Japan. She will raise a Koinoburi signed with messages of gratitude from Japanese people. In the afternoon, they will join together to fly some kites once the winds pick up.
