The feasts of specific groups and communities are also the part of the calendar ritual cycle of some rural or urban municipalities, where either the acceptance or termination of membership and the progress of individuals to the next stage of life occurs. This type of festivity is also the school “majáles/juniáles” in a village Liptovské Sliače, which is the subject of this study. It presents an analysis of the current state of this calendar feast in the context of the concept of the rituals of transition (A. v. Gennep). “Majáles/juniáles” is a long-standing traditionally significant feast in this municipality, whereby the school ending pupils are separated from the local school environment. The author presents this school event as a part of a wider complex of separate rituals that finish the membership of these pupils in the school community. This paper pays particular attention to presentation of the functions of this phenomenon in the current rural environment, its transformation, changes in this field, perception of it by actors themselves, with an emphasis on etic and emic perspective.
