Where is solidarity and bonding?

In chemistry, solids are made up of particles. Chemical bonding exists to hold particles together to become a stable solid.

People also put the idea in humans and they define solidarity as a unifying opinion, feeling, purpose or interest among a group of people. The members of the group are willing to give support to other members when needed without asking anything in return. Bonding between the people is a must to keep their solidarity. Solidarity and bonding allow people to work together as a group to achieve a common goal.

One example of solidarity and bonding is minions, which are our mascot this year. Minions are fictional yellow creatures that appear in a film. They bring a lot of joy to us. However, if you watch it carefully, you will find that minions won’t stay alone. They play together, work together and laugh together. Therefore, I can say there is an invisible bond between all of them which makes them stay together and do not leave anyone behind. Also, the solidarity among the minions is strong. In Despicable Me 3, the tiny yellow minions dominate the jail. They also make an airship using the materials inside the jail and escape. If they only work on their own, they won’t be able to escape! It is the solidarity and bonding between the minions to make them stronger. Also make the impossible possible.

Solidarity and bonding exists in our house too. On Sports Day in previous years, our house had to send representatives to join. House members always showed initiative and participated in activities. For members who were not good at sports, they cheered loudly for house members. Different members of the house contributed in different ways, but they were all working hard for the same goal — to get good results on sports days, so that we would gain honor for the house.

Similarly, our cheering team practised day and night.Everyone were exhausted after practice. However, they never complained, because they wanted to perform well on stage and gain honor for the house.
Our house is the best reflection of solidarity and bonding, because every single member of the house is willing to work for the house. We are in the same group and we care about others.

I believe solidarity and bonding also exist among us, Shungtakians.
