There are currently about 970 students in Presentation College. The school is housed in a modern building opened in late 2012, which replaced an older building constructed in the 1960s. Outdoor facilities include a floodlit grass rugby field, astro turf soccer pitch, a basketball court, and several other playing fields. The school is located on Putland Road just off the main Vevay Road, next to the Queen of Peace church. It is accessible via Bus routes 45a, 84 and 184.

The main building cost €130.7 million to build and was funded by the Department of Education.
