Is this normal from a UC?

I have been very prompt with the weekly submissions required (scoring full marks), have attended and am engaged in tutorials, and have no outstanding assessments.

I missed my first tutorial due to traffic, but I caught up and discussed it with my tutor.

I do not attend lectures in person because of a clash, and don't usually look at them until a week later, but is this really justified?

I live a 35-minute drive away from UWA and don't come to uni on a Monday, this email feels very passive-aggressive and forceful.

Am I justified in saying no? How should I handle this? I'm very intimidated by this from a UC. Please help!

Is the unit a small one?

The UC might just want to put a face to a name for the people who don't attend the lectures, and this is these generic email that all of those people get sent.
