If you're feeding from only one school, odds are many students will already know each other. Coming from a 45+ member, 2 school team working in a relatively small shop, your new members will gain a sense of team identity the more they work together with experienced members. Don't make them feel like they're new; they are just as much a part of the team as any experienced member is. The more they work side by side with experienced members, the more the team will grow together.
