hakuvaihetta
Hakuvaihetta, also known as the "transition phase" or "change of season," is a term used in Finnish culture to describe the period between the end of one academic year and the beginning of the next. This time is typically characterized by a sense of anticipation and uncertainty, as students prepare to return to school or transition to a new phase of their education. During hakuvaihetta, students may engage in various activities such as reviewing their previous year's work, setting goals for the upcoming year, and socializing with their peers. The term is often used to refer to the period between the end of May and the beginning of August, although the exact dates can vary depending on the school and region. Hakuvaihetta is an important time for students to reflect on their academic progress and plan for the future, and it is often marked by a mix of excitement and apprehension.
