Are you likely to need a reference from your current employer?

Knuckle down and get on with it. What you do now may bite you in the arse later on!
Why would they pay you in advance? Sounds like they don't expect you to go in. If it was my responsibility I would tell you not to come in, to much risk of revenge activities. That's why people are usually escorted off the premises. ( That doesn't include you of course.)
Most people getting paid monthly will get paid part way through the month, with the pay covering the entire calendar month. So they are working with pay in arrears at the start of the month and having been paid in advance at the end of the month.
Don't worry too much about the reference they have to give you the obligatory " this person is a good employee" no matter what or no reference at all. Go into work but who give a toss about them use the time to use their computers/phones to look for new jobs and updating the CV etc. Go in when you want leave when you want use the time for your benefit not theirs.
I have been made redundant 3 times in the past and every time it has worked out for the better its a shite experience but don't let it get you down and good luck.

So not working for nothing then, working for the wages that you've already been paid?
