English-speaking societies don't tend to divide the year by four-month periods, so we don't really have a current term that most people would recognize and accept as normal usage.

The obvious term for a three-month period would be "third", or "third of the year", by analogy to "quarter", which is the usual division for business & accounting purposes in England & the U.S. (Back when we were an agricultural people, we spoke of "seasons". Today, unless you work in the theater or a resort town, you're probably more likely to think of "quarters" than of "seasons". "Seasons" in commercial sports are not more-or-less equal divisions of the year.)
