The sun sets at the South Pole about March 21 and does not rise again until about September 21.

This means that on 21 June, there is no sunrise -- or 24 hours of darkness on that date.

Does the South Pole receive the Longest period of daylight on June 21st?

Zero hours of sunlight. The Winter Solstice on the 21st of June is the day that the sun is furthest away from the South Pole. Sunrise at the South Pole is on about the 21st of September every year. Sunset is on about the 22nd of March the following year. The reverse is the case at the North Pole. So a polar day is about 6 months and a polar night is also about 6 months.

Therefore, at 80 degrees south on June 21st, there are 24 hours of daylight.
