本校三年级学生的获奖作文《“看不见的纽带”构筑的安心社会》，是作者从中国来到日本之后，在日常生活中思考“安心感的基础”而写下的作品。
文中写道，作者意识到，在日本，人们在电车前安静排队、不乱扔垃圾、即便对陌生人也保持礼貌，这些看不见的“默契规则”，正是支撑社会安心感的重要因素。
例如，当自己因为不懂垃圾分类而感到困惑时，附近的一位老奶奶主动搭话，细心教他如何分类垃圾。
在语文课上忘记带笔记本时，旁边的同学不动声色地把自己的笔记本借给他。
迷路的时候，即使自己的日语还不流利，素不相识的女士也愿意听他结结巴巴地说明情况，并一路把他带到目的地。
通过这些具体的经历，作者逐渐明白，正是作为“看不见的纽带”的人与人之间的联结，支撑着自己的安心感。
在作文中，作者得出结论：一个个小小的善意会不断传递，形成“善意的连锁”，从而编织出一张巨大的安心网络，也成为包容不同文化和背景的人的力量。
最后，作者以这样的决心作结：即使回到祖国，也要把这份“看不见的纽带”的可贵之处传递给身边的人。
作品中描写的情景——垃圾分类、课堂上的笔记本、为迷路的人指路——都十分具体，使读者能清晰地在脑海中浮现画面，也让“看不见的纽带＝人与人的联结创造安心”的观点更具说服力。
对有困难的人能及时察觉，并自然地伸出援手的行为不断扩散，这样的描写也与我们心目中理想的班级建设、学校建设高度契合，是一篇读后令人感到温暖与光亮的优秀作文。

Selected Essay in the 75th “Brightening Society” Essay Contest
On January 6, the awards ceremony for the 75th “Brightening Society” Essay Contest was held at the Osaka Joint Government Building.
Out of approximately 25,000 entries, an essay written by a third-year student from our school was proudly chosen as one of the six selected works.
In a solemn and dignified atmosphere, the student received a certificate and commemorative gift from the Director of the Osaka Probation Office, attending the ceremony with a slightly nervous yet clearly proud expression.
The ceremony also featured the comedy duo “Span!” as special guests.
Span! is a manzai comedy pair belonging to Yoshimoto Kogyo who, while working as “Osaka Prefecture Resident Comedians,” also serve as PR ambassadors for the “Brightening Society” campaign in Osaka.
In cooperation with the Ministry of Justice, probation offices, and local volunteer probation officers’ associations, they support the campaign through awareness events and quiz segments.
Their light-hearted talk lifted the mood, and the hall was soon filled with laughter in a warm and cheerful atmosphere.
At the end, award recipients and related staff gathered for a commemorative photo, and the ceremony concluded amid warm applause.
We would like to extend our sincere thanks to everyone involved.
The winning essay by our third-year student, titled “An安心Society Built on Invisible Bonds,” is based on the author’s reflections on the “foundations of safety and reassurance” experienced in daily life after coming to Japan from China.
The writer describes realizing that invisible “unspoken rules” — such as quietly lining up for trains, not littering, and treating even strangers with courtesy — are what support the sense of safety in society.
Specific episodes include being confused about how to separate garbage and having an elderly neighbor kindly approach and explain the rules of sorting.
In a Japanese class, when the writer forgot their notebook, a nearby classmate casually lent theirs without making a fuss.
On another occasion, when the writer got lost, a stranger guided them all the way to their destination, listening patiently despite the writer’s limited Japanese.
Through these concrete experiences, the author comes to understand that human connections, as “invisible bonds,” are what sustain their own feeling of safety.
In the essay, the writer concludes that small acts of kindness passed from one person to the next create a “chain of kindness,” which in turn forms a broad network of reassurance capable of embracing people from different cultures and backgrounds.
The essay ends with a determination to share the importance of these “invisible bonds” with people back home after returning to their own country.
Because the experiences described—garbage sorting, lending a notebook in class, guiding someone who is lost—are so concrete, readers can easily picture each scene, which gives strong persuasive power to the message that “invisible bonds, or human connections, create a sense of safety.”
The way the essay portrays noticing those in difficulty and quietly reaching out to help them, and how such actions spread, closely aligns with our ideal image of classroom and school culture, making it a warm and uplifting piece to read.
