I don't know anything about your personal life, but teamwork examples could come from working on a group project at school or being part of a sports team, work experience etc. If you've ever worked alongside someone else to get something done, mention it.

Before your interview, you should make a list of any examples you can think of, and read through them a few times so that you don't forget. You should also make lists of your strengths and weaknesses.

By the way, if they do ask you about your weaknesses, always be careful to stress that you'd relish the opportunity to work hard and iron out your faults, learn from mistakes etc etc. Don't just say 'well, I'm crap with money so don't put me on the tills!'
