Canele x RU: Celebrating Creativity and Gratitude Through Photography
At Raffles University, creativity finds a canvas in every corner—and during the recent The Canelé Shop x RU Photography Competition, it was captured through the lens of our talented students from the Diploma in Visual Communication programme.
This special collaboration with The Canelé Shop, a brand renowned for heartfelt expression and delectable French pastries, challenged students to visually interpret the theme of “Gratitude.” Each participant submitted a photograph with a story, blending emotion, beauty, and meaning into powerful works of art.

Through this initiative, students not only explored visual storytelling but also reflected on the value of gratitude in their lives. The Canele Shop x RU Photography Competition has once again proven that Raffles University is home to bold ideas, emotional intelligence, and artistic innovation.
Thanks to the support of Ms Samantha, founder of The Canelé Shop, students had the opportunity to create final projects inspired by the shop’s iconic canelés. Congratulations to all winners and participants.
